Are you looking to join a highly ambitious firm with excellent progression pathways to kick-start your career in recruitment? We're growing and would love to hear from you.

Dartmouth Partners is a private equity-backed, multi-award-winning recruitment company with a unique 'Classroom to Boardroom' business model. We do things differently, and our key differentiators are kindness and excellence. We embed these values in our day-to-day work and look for them in our new team members. 

From fast-growing start-ups to PE-backed businesses and FTSE 250, we partner with ambitious businesses to help them identify exceptional talent, from high-potential school leavers all the way up to C-suite.

About the role

Your role will focus on networking with candidates, understanding their key drivers and motivations and becoming an expert in your market. You'll learn the recruitment lifecycle, perfecting your skills not just on day one but throughout your career with us. Our investment in your professional development starts with our market-leading training programme, the Kernel Academy. 

You'll develop commercial, meaningful relationships with our client base and, in time, build a client network of your own through consultative business development. 

You'll identify and attract market-leading talent through delivering research projects and surveys, building market maps, analysing and reporting market trends, and working on the creation of value-added ED&I events.

You are key to Dartmouth's success and we will invest in your development to help you maximise your opportunity and progress to Consultant (and beyond!)

What you'll bring

• Experience in a fast-paced business environment
• Confident ‘can-do’ attitude and a strong work ethic
• Commercial acumen, business-minded thinking and an aptitude for sales
• A passion for a long-term career in recruitment
• Intellectual curiosity
• Bright, engaging, charismatic personality
• Ability to operate with professionalism in all interactions
• Excellent verbal and written communications

 What you'll get

• A high-performance, mature environment where we take our work seriously but not ourselves
• Bespoke training from our in-house Performance & Development team starting with our industry-leading Kernel Academy
• Clear progression path from Associate to Managing Director
• Regular incentives such as lunch clubs and trips abroad
• Private healthcare, wellness and mental health support

With global offices across the Kernel network in London, Hong Kong, New York and Charlotte, we can also offer international secondment and relocation opportunities. We have lots of examples of our business leaders across the globe who started their careers with us in another office!

We learn best when we're together and value collaboration and in-person interactions with candidates, clients and each other. To reflect this, we promote (and enjoy!) working from the office however, we also offer flexible arrangements and have the option to work from home one day a week.
