Graduate Recruitment Consutlant - US Market

Graduate Recruitment Consultant — US Engineering Market 🇺🇸 UK-Based | No US Hours | Full Training Provided

Why this role?

You will be recruiting across the United States from the UK — same hours, same timezone, but with access to one of the most lucrative recruitment markets in the world

Here is why the US market is a game changer for a graduate:

🤑 Bigger fees: US salaries are higher, fees are a percentage of salary. The numbers work in your favour from day one

⚡ Get paid faster: US notice periods can be as short as two weeks. Commission is paid when a candidate starts, so the sooner they start, the sooner you earn

🌎 Huge market: Hundreds of thousands of Civil, MEP and Energy engineering firms across 50 states. Enormous opportunity, far less saturated than the UK

🏔️The Firm

A specialist engineering recruitment business operating as a strategic hiring partner to Civil, MEP and Energy and Infrastructure firms across the US. Their model is commitment-based — every search gets dedicated focus, not a scattergun approach. Over six years they have maintained a 95% staff retention rate. That tells you everything about the culture here. This is a people-first business led by a Chairman who previously scaled a $1.3bn global engineering staffing firm with 56 offices across 26 countries.

📋The Role

You will join as a Graduate Recruitment Consultant with full training provided across AQRA's core markets — Civil Engineering, MEP, and Energy and Infrastructure. You will be in the office five days a week while you develop, with flexibility to work abroad during certain periods once established.

✅What's On Offer

• £26k base salary that will increase once you hit your targets in the first 6 months
• Uncapped commission paid as soon as your candidate starts
• Full structured training and mentorship from industry
• Access to one of the world's largest engineering recruitmentmarkets
• Flexibility to work abroad once established
• People-first culture — 95% staff retention over six years

🏆Who They Are Looking For

• Competitive, driven and motivated by earning potential
• Resilient, coachable and hungry to build something
