Job Description:

Some recruitment businesses are built around people and others are built around markets.

Hawkstone Search was built around both.

We are a specialist legal search firm focused exclusively on the US market, partnering with law firms on hires that directly impact revenue, growth, and strategic direction.

We operate in a space where:

  • Hiring demand is constant
  • Fee sizes are significant
  • And the best recruiters are rewarded accordingly

Because in the US legal world, recruitment isn’t transactional, it’s business-critical.

But, the real story behind Hawkstone Search is how and why the business was built.

In 2022, our Director turned down university offers, relocated to Manchester, and committed fully to recruitment.

Over the next few years, he:

  • Progressed into top billing positions
  • Broke performance records
  • Worked across start-ups, scale-ups, and established firms

And in doing so, realised something simple: Most recruiters aren’t limited by ability, they’re limited by the market they operate in.

Hawkstone Search was built to solve that.

In the first 9 months:

  • Over $600,000 billed
  • Average fee: $75,000
  • Our first hire did a £35K deal within 7 weeks of joining (no prior legal rec experience) Their commission will be £5–6K after 2 months.
  • Individuals on track for six-figure earnings in year one

What joining Hawkstone Search looks like:

This is a high-performance environment designed for people who want more from recruitment:

  • Access to a high-value, US-driven market
  • Clear progression into leadership or high-billing individual roles
  • Opportunity to relocate to the US as we scale
  • Early-stage exposure with long-term equity potential

Alongside the usual incentives, but with a much bigger focus on what actually matters: earning potential and progression.

Who this is for:

Recruiters who:

  • Have proven they can bill (any sector welcome)
  • Are commercially driven
  • And want their environment to match their ambition

Because at a certain point in your career, it’s no longer about working harder. It’s about working in a market that rewards it properly.

If you’re open to exploring that, we want to hear from you.
