Graduate Trainee Recruitment Consultant
June / July 2026 Intake | Bristol
Start your career somewhere that is already working.
Edmund & Evans have partnered with a high-performing recruitment business focused on AI, tech, and clean energy markets.
They are known for two things:
They do meaningful work in markets that matter.
They produce serious billers.
Their top performer billed £1.6 million last year and earned around £600,000.
That tells you everything about what is possible here.
The BusinessThis is not a generalist recruitment company.
They focus on:
AI and data
Tech for impact
Clean energy
Central government projects
Over the past year, they have narrowed their focus further into AI markets. Teams work closely together, build real expertise, and stay within areas where they can win.
The Bristol office is where graduates are trained. It is set up properly, with a dedicated learning and development team and a steady intake of new consultants.
