I love recruitment; the Ellis Recruitment Group fully prepares you for the job – but it does have its challenges. In the beginning, I found understanding requirements complex, and I had to get used to dealing with rejection. What was amazing was the support from the whole of the Ellis Recruitment Group team; my mentor, Lewis, who guided me through the process, gave me helpful advice about how to deal with rejection and provided thorough, in-depth explanations of roles and projects.

Mentoring & Our Values – Collaboration, Curiosity & Connected

At Ellis we know that mentoring is more than just training – it’s about building relationships, shared insight and living our values. Our mentoring culture is deeply tied to our core values of Collaboration, Curiosity and Connected.

  • Collaboration: mentors and mentees work together, sharing challenges and successes. You learn from each other, and we grow stronger as a team.
  • Curiosity: your mentor encourages you to ask questions, explore new markets, test new techniques, and stay ahead of the competition.
  • Connected: you become part of an active network – across regions, desks and levels – that keeps you plugged into the business, the industry and each other.
    Our mentoring experience supports every stage: from trainee to tenured consultant to senior leader. Mentors are selected for their track record, their communication skills and their willingness to connect deeply with your career. They act not just as trainers, but as guides, sounding-boards and champions of your success.

Why This Matters

When you join Ellis, you’re signing up for a career-driving journey, not just a job. Our unified Training & Mentoring structure means you always know:

  • What it takes to progress.


With clarity, commitment and coaching, you’ll grow your performance, your income and your influence – in a company that values your development as much as your results.
