Ready to embark on a fun and rewarding journey?

Rutherford is a leading governance recruitment business with big dreams. If you are a motivated, ambitious and lively professional looking for a new career move, keep on reading; we promise it’s worth it.

Building something together.

You have just found a boutique recruitment business of 18 individuals at an important point in its journey.

That was lucky!

A good recruiter always has options but right here, right now, we think that what we have is pretty unique. You could decide to join the 1-5 people start-up. Will they make it though? How long will it take? And will you make any money in the meantime?

You could also join the 40 - 400 mega agency. But will you be a cog? Will you make a difference? Will you have a say or ever be a part of senior management?

Rutherford is hitting its growth curve right now. This is an opportunity to be part of that adventure. We are looking for the future leaders who will be running this business in the next few years. Promotion prospects are rapid but hard work is required - it will be career defining, fascinating, exciting and we guarantee that you will both benefit in the value we create together as well as have a good time along the way.

We challenge each other and strive for excellence, but we also deeply care about our peers. We are trying to create a culture where everyone is enfranchised in the succes of the firm.

So if you want to work with some of the most motivated and knowledgeable headhunters in the UK - and New York very soon - who happen to also be good people, then get in touch.

Experienced Recruiters

At Rutherford, we offer a work environment - and a career opportunity - like no other. We will spare you the usual schpiel you will find on all other recruitment firms’ websites filled with buzzwords like dynamic environment, social life, great incentives and so on.

To us, this is the standard - not the reason why you should join us.

We think that what we have here is truly special. If you are an experienced recruiter, you will quickly realise that Rutherford could be the place where you will be able to build something big; bigger than you could get elsewhere.
