The Harnham Academy Route Into Recruitment
Location: Wimbledon, Southwest London
Salary: £26,000 base plus uncapped commission
Start Date: January 2026
If you are looking to launch a commercial career where your earning potential, recognition, and progression come from performance not time served, the Harnham Academy offers one of the most structured pathways in the industry.
This is not just a graduate role. It is a training programme designed to turn ambitious people into high performing Recruitment Consultants, developing sales craft, confidence, negotiation ability, client management and success habits that last a lifetime.
Why the Harnham Academy is different
The Academy is a dedicated learning environment built specifically for new starters. You are a full time employee from day one, with a clear development framework, classroom training, and on-desk practice running alongside each other.
During your first months you will learn how to:
• Sell opportunities and pitch roles to candidates
• Build relationships and influence decisions
• Run interview processes end to end
• Develop commercial awareness within a fast moving market
• Progress toward managing your own client relationships
You will join one of our specialist Data and AI teams, sitting alongside experienced recruiters while also receiving structured training run by our Learning and Development team.
Training Timeline and Progression
Your development is mapped out clearly from day one:
Months 1 to 3
You build candidate management skills, learn tools, process, sourcing, screening and communication fundamentals.
Month 3 Review
You will be reviewed for progression into Business Development training or continue to deepen your delivery experience depending on readiness.
Months 4 to 6
Either begin BD Academy one day per week to learn sales and client acquisition, or continue developing in a 180 role before progressing later.
From this point, you are on the path to becoming a 360 Consultant, taking ownership for both clients and candidates and earning uncapped commission on every placement.
Who succeeds here
We hire graduates from all degrees. You do not need recruitment experience, just the mindset.
You will enjoy this role if you are:
• Motivated by earning potential and fast progression
• Competitive, driven, and comfortable pushing for results
• Someone who enjoys conversation, persuasion, and problem solving
• Resilient, goal focused, and ready to work smart and work hard
Customer facing, sales or people based experience is valuable but not essential.

• Clear training roadmap, rather than sink-or-swim learning
• Uncapped commission with no threshold
• A culture built on recognition, growth and team success
• Rapid progression opportunities as you develop
• Offices in London, New York, San Francisco, Phoenix and Amsterdam
