One of the main focuses of our graduate training program is progression, our promotion system is target based and on average people get their first promotion in 9 to 11 months. At Harnham, you will have weekly and monthly meetings with your manager so they can support your journey through the program and help you reach your targets and succeed.

Recruitment:

Working as a recruitment consultant means that you will be working with clients from the world of data and analytics and working with them in order to fill any vacancies they may have.

The candidates you will be working with will have specific and sought-after experience and qualifications and at Harnham, you will become an expert in finding the perfect candidate for your clients.

The role would include:

• Placement Negotiations – Closing the deal when a candidate is offered the job, ensuring they get the best offer, and then earning commission.

Commission:

As a Recruitment Consultant at Harnham you will be earning commission on any candidate that you place, this commission will be a percentage of the deal fee that you will negotiate with the client.
