Senior Recruitment Consultant - Legal Business Services

The Opportunity – Business Services, US Legal Recruitment Senior Consultant / Principal / Associate Director opportunity Basic Salary - 50-75k depending on experience and level London - City location Hybrid My client is looking for an experienced recruiter to establish and grow a dedicated Business Services practice, focusing on non-fee-earning positions within leading US law firms, particularly the Am Law 100. This appointment forms part of a wider strategic initiative to broaden the firm's service offering to its existing law firm clients. Having established an exceptionally successful US legal recruitment business, they are now investing in complementary specialist practices to provide a more comprehensive recruitment solution to its clients. The business already has someone joining to establish and develop its Finance recruitment offering into US law firms, and the launch of a dedicated Business Services practice represents another important step in this expansion. The successful candidate will focus on recruiting on and building a team across a broad range of business support functions, including:

• Compliance – Risk, regulatory compliance and conflicts
• HR & Recruitment – Human Resources, Talent Acquisition and Learning & Development
• IT – Technology, IT support and infrastructure
• Legal Support – Legal Secretaries, Legal PAs and Executive Assistants
• Marketing & Business Development – Marketing, communications, client development and business development professionals
• Operations – Office management and operations roles
• Paralegals & Document Review – Paralegals, document review lawyers and litigation support professionals With approximately 20 consultants already focused on the US legal market, operating across London and New York, they have longstanding relationships with many of the firms you would be targeting. Rather than building a desk entirely from scratch, you will be able to leverage these established relationships, working alongside successful colleagues who are already deeply embedded within the US legal market. There is also scope to hire a researcher or junior consultant almost immediately, allowing you to concentrate on business development, client relationships and growing the practice. This is an opportunity to play a central role in the next phase of Pure Search's growth, developing a significant new revenue stream with the autonomy to build and ultimately lead a sizable team.
