Join a Trusted Leader in Legal Recruitment

For over three decades, Anakin Seal Legal Recruitment — the specialist legal arm of IPS Group — has been connecting exceptional legal professionals with leading law firms and in‑house legal teams across the UK.

We’re now looking for an ambitious Senior Recruitment Consultant to join our established team in either Manchester or Leeds. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of a desk, work with a respected brand, and grow your career within a reputable and established legal recruitment business.

Why You’ll Love Working with Us

  • A brand with real credibility: Over 30 years of market presence and a trusted nationwide network of clients and candidates.
  • Warm desk & strong relationships: Step into an established portfolio with repeat business and loyal clients.
  • Outstanding earning potential: Competitive base salary with an uncapped bonus scheme and additional performance incentives.
  • Autonomy without pressure: A supportive, professional environment focused on quality client relationships and delivering solutions — not arbitrary KPIs.
  • Full operational support: Marketing, compliance, payroll, and IT all handled for you, so you can focus on doing what you do best.
  • Flexible working model: Enjoy a hybrid setup with agreed flexibility.

What We’re Looking For

You’ll already be an experienced 360 recruiter, ideally with legal sector experience — or perhaps you’re a qualified legal professional ready to transition into a dynamic, client‑facing role.

We’re looking for someone who brings:

  • Proven ability to manage the full recruitment lifecycle
  • Strong relationship‑building and networking skills
  • Excellent communication and consultative sales abilities
  • A proactive, solution‑oriented approach
  • A genuine passion for delivering quality and integrity in everything you do

  • Our core values — Professionalism, Integrity, Collaboration, Knowledge, and Delivery — underpin everything we do.

We’re proud to foster a culture where everyone can bring their authentic self to work. Whatever your background — gender, ethnicity, disability, age, religion, or orientation — you’re welcome here.

Ready to Take the Next Step?

If you’re a confident, motivated professional who values autonomy, genuine relationships, and meaningful results, we’d love to hear from you.
