Senior Recruitment Consultant – Legal Business Services & Risk
- London | Hybrid Working
- Competitive Base Salary + Commission
A well‑established, highly respected legal recruitment business is looking to hire an experienced recruitment consultant to join its growing Business Services division.
This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys relationship‑led recruitment and wants to work within the private practice legal market across a broad range of business services functions.
The role will focus on recruiting professionals into leading law firms across areas including:
- HR
- Marketing & Business Development
- Learning & Development
- Legal Technology
- Finance & wider Business Services
One of the biggest attractions here is the opportunity to inherit a warm Risk & Compliance desk with active roles and established client relationships already in place alongside the chance to further build out broader business services offerings across existing law firm clients.
The business is keen to hire experienced recruiters who can operate with autonomy, build trusted client relationships, and manage processes confidently without needing close day‑to‑day supervision.
This would suit someone who:
- Has previous 360 recruitment experience in a similar desk
- Enjoys relationship‑led, consultative recruitment
- Is commercially driven but professional in approach
- Can manage and grow client relationships independently
- Wants to work within a high‑quality legal recruitment environment
- Is interested in developing a long‑term desk and potentially helping build a wider team in the future
The environment is mature, collaborative and highly respected within the legal market, with strong existing client relationships and a consistent flow of work.
In terms of expectations, consultants are trusted to manage their desks like a business and billing targets are realistic and achievable for experienced recruiters operating within established markets.
For recruiters looking for a warm desk, strong legal sector exposure, and the opportunity to build something long term within a respected boutique environment, this is well worth a conversation.
