Graduate Recruitment Consultant — Fintech | Radley James | London

Are you sharp, competitive, and looking for a career that rewards hard work and ambition from day one? Radley James is hiring graduate recruitment consultants to join our fintech desk in London.

About Radley James

Radley James is a specialist recruitment firm operating at the sharp end of global fintech. We’re a high-performance business built on expertise, results, and a genuine commitment to developing the next generation of top billers. This isn’t a place for people who want to drift — it’s a place for people who want to win.

The role

Recruitment is one of the most commercially rewarding careers you can enter straight from university — but the business you join makes all the difference. As a graduate consultant at Radley James, you’ll work on live mandates across the fintech market, placing technology and business-critical talent into some of the most exciting companies in the world. Day to day you’ll be building market knowledge, managing relationships with candidates and clients, running end-to-end hiring processes, and ultimately closing deals.

You’ll learn to read people, handle pressure, negotiate, and think on your feet — skills that will compound throughout your career. The days are demanding, the learning curve is steep, and the rewards are real.

Progression and training

We invest heavily in our graduate intake. From day one you’ll receive structured training, close mentorship from senior consultants, and a clear path to progression. The results speak for themselves. One of our graduates was promoted to full billing consultant within five months of joining. Others have made it into our top five billers companywide with under two years’ experience. The ceiling here is yours to set.

Who we’re looking for

We look for a particular type of person. Commercially sharp, highly competitive, resilient, and hungry to build something. If you’ve competed in team sport at a serious level — rugby, football, rowing, hockey, cricket — you’ll likely recognise the traits we’re describing: accountability, composure under pressure, the ability to push through when it gets tough, and the drive to keep improving.

We don’t require a specific degree subject or prior experience in recruitment. What we do require is intelligence, energy, and genuine ambition.

The ideal candidate

  • Is highly competitive and motivated by results
  • Degree educated
  • Has a team sport background, ideally at a club or university level
  • Communicates with confidence and clarity
  • Is coachable and committed to continuous improvement
  • Wants fast progression and is willing to put the work in to earn it

What’s on offer

  • Competitive base salary with uncapped commission
  • Fast-track progression with a clear path from graduate to senior consultant
  • Exceptional structured training programme
  • A high-performance, team-oriented culture
