Principal Consultant – Legal Transformation

IGA Talent Solutions is continuing to develop its Legal Technology, Operations & Innovation practice across the UK and US, and we’re looking for an ambitious and commercially driven Principal Consultant to play a key role in that growth.
This is an opportunity to join a high-performing business with an established client base, excellent infrastructure, and significant backing. You’ll step into an active network of leading law firms and legal services organisations, working within one of the fastest-growing areas of the legal market.
The legal innovation, operations and technology space is a rapidly expanding global market. Organisations are actively rethinking how legal services are delivered, creating sustained demand for specialist talent who can support change, efficiency, and innovation.
As a result, there is a growing and ongoing need for legal recruitment consultants that can connect exceptional talent with mid-large global organisations. This is a market with long-term structural growth, significant fee potential, and strong repeat client demand across both the UK and US.

-Existing PSL relationships and track record with some of the largest law firms across the UK and US.
-Budget to attend leading international conferences and industry events across the UK and US.
-Backing from Hamilton Bradshaw, the private equity vehicle founded by James Caan CBE with access to strategic support and genuine industry thought leaders in the portfolio.
-A supportive, collaborative, “win together” environment with a strong focus on shared success. Rewarding all-company incentives, including trips such as skiing in France and Switzerland, Oktoberfest, and Copenhagen.
The Role Will Involve
-Growing and developing a specialist market within legal transformation and innovation.
-Managing and growing relationships with law firms and legal services clients.
-Delivering high-quality recruitment solutions across permanent and retained strategic mandates.
-Identifying new business opportunities and contributing to the continued growth of the practice.

-Collaborating closely with colleagues across research, operations, and leadership teams.
What We’re Looking For

You will also demonstrate:
