26,000 Starting Salary + Uncapped Commission (Up to 45%) + Fast Progression + Industry-Leading Training + International Opportunities + Hybrid Working

Are you a graduate or ambitious salesperson looking for more than just a job?

Do you want a career where your success directly determines how much you earn, how quickly you progress, and the opportunities available to you?

At Rise Technical Recruitment, we don't believe in waiting years for opportunities. We believe in rewarding performance, ambition, and commitment. That's why we've built a meritocratic business where progression is earned, success is celebrated, and the people who add the most value create the biggest futures for themselves.

Since 2005, we've grown into one of the UK's leading Engineering and Technical Recruitment businesses, helping companies find exceptional talent while positively changing lives through career-changing opportunities. Today, we operate across multiple specialist markets, continue to expand internationally, and have ambitious plans for future growth across Europe, America, and the Middle East.

As part of our growing Education Division, you'll work with Schools, Colleges, Universities, Multi-Academy Trusts and leading Education Providers across the UK. This is a highly relationship-driven market where you'll build long-term partnerships, solve recruitment challenges, and play a direct role in helping education providers attract the talent they need to develop future generations.

This is not a role where you'll be sitting behind a desk waiting for opportunities to happen. You'll receive industry-leading training and support before taking ownership of your own market, building relationships with clients and candidates, and developing your own business within our business.

The opportunity is genuinely uncapped. Whether your ambition is to become a top-performing consultant, lead a team, manage a division, open an international office, or progress into senior leadership, the pathway exists. Many of our current leaders joined Rise with little or no recruitment experience and have built highly successful careers through hard work, consistency and determination.

You'll be surrounded by ambitious people who genuinely want to succeed, in a culture that rewards performance, supports development, and celebrates success. Recruitment is challenging, but for those willing to learn, work hard and embrace the opportunity, the rewards can be life-changing.
