Job Description:

Associate Recruitment Consultant

We're looking for ambitious, competitive and people-focused graduates to join our growing Bristol team as Associate Recruitment Consultants.

No recruitment experience? No problem.

What matters to us is your attitude, work ethic and ambition. If you're someone who enjoys building relationships, thrives in a fast-paced environment and wants a career where your earning potential and progression are genuinely in your hands, this could be the opportunity for you.

Who are LHi Group?

LHi Group is a people-first, employee-owned recruitment business with four specialist, non-competing brands operating across some of the world's most exciting markets:

• Technology
• Life Sciences
• Renewable Energy
• Built Environment

With offices across the UK, Europe and the US, including New York, Los Angeles, Austin, Miami, London, Bristol and Berlin, we're proud to combine the energy of a high-growth international business with a genuinely supportive and collaborative culture.

We're also a Most Loved Workplace Certified Company and an Employee-Owned Trust (EOT) business, meaning our people have a genuine stake in our future success.

The Opportunity:

As an Associate Recruitment Consultant, you'll learn how to build and run your own specialist recruitment desk. Recruitment is a sales-driven, relationship-focused career. You'll work with clients to understand their hiring needs, identify exceptional talent and guide both clients and candidates through the recruitment process.

No two days are the same.

You'll be speaking with senior professionals, developing new business, building your network and becoming an expert in your specialist market.

What You'll Be Doing?

You'll learn how to:

• Build relationships with clients and candidates.
• Identify and win new business opportunities.
• Source and headhunt talented professionals within your specialist market.
• Conduct qualification and candidate interviews.
• Manage clients and candidates throughout the interview process.
• Develop long-term relationships and build your own professional network.
• Map your market and identify new business opportunities.
• Generate leads and develop a strong sales pipeline.
• Become a specialist within a cutting-edge market.

Your Training & Development

We don't expect you to know recruitment before joining us. Our bespoke training academy, Ignition, is a 12-week programme designed to give you the skills, confidence and market knowledge needed to build a successful recruitment career.

Your training combines classroom learning with hands-on experience at your desk, covering everything from:

• Candidate sourcing and headhunting.
• Qualification calls and candidate assessment.
• Business development.
• Sales and negotiation.
• Client management.
• Building your specialist market.

You'll also receive ongoing support from our dedicated Learning & Development team and your manager, who will mentor you from day one and throughout your career.

At LHi, progression isn't just something we talk about. We invest heavily in developing our people and creating opportunities for them to grow.

We're looking for graduates who are:

• Ambitious and motivated to build a successful career.
• Confident communicating with new people.
• Competitive and driven by achieving goals.
• Resilient and comfortable stepping outside their comfort zone.
• Naturally relationship-focused.
• Proactive and willing to learn.
• Excited by a fast-paced, sales-driven environment.
• Looking for a career with genuine progression and uncapped earning potential.

Previous recruitment experience isn't required - attitude and potential are far more important.

What's In It For You?

• £30,000 base salary.
• Uncapped commission with no threshold.
• Bespoke 12-week Ignition training programme.
• Dedicated Learning & Development team.
• Clear and structured career progression.
• Ongoing mentoring and development.

Employee Ownership

After one year of service, you'll become part of our Employee-Owned Trust, giving you a genuine stake in the success of the business.

Incentives & Rewards

• Quarterly incentives, including international trips.
• Monthly promotion lunches.
• Breakfast clubs and lunch clubs.
• Treasure Chest targets.
• Millionaire Centurion Club.

Culture & Lifestyle

• 4pm finish every Friday.
• Unlimited 1.5-hour lunch breaks.

And you'll do it surrounded by ambitious, supportive people who want to see you succeed.
