This guide will help you to use recruitment consultants to find your graduate level job in Fashion,
Retail and Textiles.
Below is a list of recruitment consultants who advertise vacancies in the Fashion, Retail and Textiles
sectors. After this, there are also a handful of job boards in these areas. Inclusion on this list does not
mean the Employability and Careers Service necessarily recommend them, nor does it mean that
they currently have appropriate vacancies. However, contacting these and other recruitment
consultants might help in your job search. To find out more about Recruitment Consultants please
see another of our guides “Using Recruitment Consultants”
Some consultants will tend to have opportunities geared more towards candidates with experience. It
still might be useful to look at these vacancies as they can give a feel for career progression. When
searching these opportunities do not just restrict yourself to jobs with “Graduate” in the title. First level
positions suitable for graduates may have other titles e.g. “Junior Buyer”, Merchandisers Admin
Assistant (MAA) etc.
This is not a definitive list, and you can search recruitment consultants by location and type of work
e.g. “Manchester and Retail” at www.rec.uk.com Many of the recruitment consultants listed below
have more than one office location
