Constant waking

My son is 12 months old and I'm due to start work again in a couple of weeks but he still wakes up 4-8 times a night and I'm exhausted. 4 times a night is a very rare good night, usually it's around 6 times. We have a bedtime routine, he goes to bed at the same time each night, he eats fairly well, he's happy and healthy. I breastfeed him just before putting him down so sometimes he goes down already asleep and sometimes I put him in his cot and leave the room - he'll usually cry for a couple of minutes then go to sleep. Either way it doesn't seem to make much difference, he still wakes up every 1-2 hours. I'm so desperate for a good night's sleep! We co-slept for a fee months when he was a bit younger but I now find that more exhausting as he just wants to feed all night and climb on me so I don't want to go back to that. Does anyone have any suggestions to help me? I feel like I've tried everything - we've done sleep training several times and it worked to help him go to sleep on his own but it doesn't seem to affect how often he wakes up.
