Graduate / Trainee Jobs

Knightsbridge Recruitment has a long-standing reputation for finding outstanding Graduates, Trainees, Receptionists, Junior PAs and Admin Assistants for our Clients. As one of London’s top recruitment agencies we recognise how valuable a Graduate or entry-level employee can be for a company and, equally, the outstanding opportunity the jobs provide for our candidates for career progression.

We have excellent relationships with excellent Graduates from the best universities and business schools in London and the UK. Whether they come to us with a degree from a Russell Group University, Oxbridge or a Business Diploma from institutions such as Oxford Media and Business School and Quest Professional, we hand-pick the most impressive candidates. This doesn’t mean only looking for candidates who are qualified in the relevant
subjects but also closely examining their abilities, skills, personality, passion to learn and ambition when it comes to their career.

Our clients come from all sorts of industries, from highly respected, long-standing finance firms to thrilling start-ups and a huge variety of creative industries too. So starting out as a Graduate EA, PA, Receptionist or in another Admin job is often a fantastic ‘foot in the door’ to a very prestigious and exciting company. It is a chance to work for high profile, very successful individuals in interesting industries – we often see our candidates promoted from their first job as Receptionist to Director by being noticed and working their way up.

These entry-level jobs place candidates in front of directors and decision makers who notice the stand-out employees, fast-tracking them into stimulating roles. There is huge scope for career progression.

Because these jobs have long-term value to our clients, finding the right candidate is vital. We carefully filter out the top talent before introducing them to our clients. Meaning they will hit the ground running when they start. However, we recognise that recent Graduates might not have office or interview experience yet. So our personal, thorough approach to recruitment includes interview preparation to ensure the candidates are really right for the jobs. As a result, our clients get the best shortlist of CVs at this level.

If you are looking to recruit exceptional Graduates or Junior PAs/Office Assistants/Receptionists, or to find the best Personal Assistants at Graduate or entry level, please do not hesitate to contact our recruitment consultants to discuss your needs and begin your search.
