What are the responsibilities and job description for the Recruitment Consultant position at Dartmouth Partners?
Who are Dartmouth Partners?
We're a private equity-backed, multi-award-winning recruitment company with a unique 'Classroom to Boardroom' business model. 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.
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.
About the team
After 13 years in Europe establishing ourselves as the leading partner to firms looking to hire junior talent we’re now focused on growing our business in the United States. The Early Careers team has grown to 20 people in London and is the foundation of Dartmouth’s ‘Classroom to Boardroom’ model. In New York, the ambition is to replicate this success – but more quickly.
About the role
Your role will focus on networking with students, interviewing them, understanding their key drivers and motivations and becoming an expert in graduate recruitment. You'll learn the recruitment lifecycle, perfecting your skills not just on day one but throughout your career with us in 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. We’re committed to working with underrepresented minorities who aspire to positions in financial services and have many initiatives and programs in the works which we'd love your help with.
The kind of person who succeeds in this role is someone who enjoys talking to people, likes project-based work, and has the ambition to build (and be a key part of) a highly successful team.
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!

With global offices across the Kernel network in London, Hong Kong, New York and Charlotte, we can also offer 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 for the majority of the week however, we also offer flexible arrangements and have the option to work from home one day a week.
