Legal Associate Search | 50% Commission + Equity & Profit Share

Billing £350k+ in Private practice? What if you could take home over 50% of your billings, whilst working alongside some of London's highest-performing legal headhunters?

I'm partnering with one of the strongest firms in Private Practice recruitment to appoint two senior Associate Search specialists into their London team.

Hit the ground running from day one, with 10+ live mandates and more opportunities than the current team can cover. Leverage established relationships across US Elite, Magic Circle and leading international law firms , alongside an exceptional leadership team, to accelerate your billings and maximise your earning potential.

The numbers speak for themselves:

  • Up to 50% commission , with an additional company-wide profit distribution
  • EOT - equity participation from day one, with 50% of company profits distributed to employees
  • Top Associate consultants generating £750k–£1m annually
  • Multi-million-pound Partner Search billers operating alongside you
  • Complete flexibility to own your practice area , without restrictive client or market ownership

What makes this platform different?

Access to some of the strongest relationships across US Elite, Magic Circle and leading international law firms , with a Partner Search team consistently opening doors to high-value Associate mandates.

One recent Partner-led mandate alone resulted in 4–5 Associate placements for a single consultant, with no fee splits. More opportunities, bigger billings and full credit for the fees you generate.

If you're billing £350k+ and looking for higher earnings, better collaboration and genuine long-term ownership , without sacrificing the infrastructure of an established platform, this is absolutely worth a conversation, at the very least.
