Senior Recruitment Specialist

I’m working with a leading international law firm that is looking to appoint a Senior Recruitment Specialist to join its established Talent Acquisition function.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced recruiter to take ownership of senior and specialist hiring across the firm, partnering closely with senior stakeholders and hiring managers to deliver high quality recruitment across a complex, international professional services environment.

The role would suit someone who enjoys working in a high performing environment, is confident managing senior stakeholders and wants to play a meaningful role in shaping recruitment strategy and talent across a global law firm.

The Role

You will be responsible for managing recruitment across a range of senior and specialist positions, acting as a trusted partner to hiring managers throughout the recruitment process.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Managing end to end recruitment processes across senior, specialist and business services roles
• Partnering closely with senior stakeholders, Partners, Directors and hiring managers to understand recruitment requirements and develop effective search strategies
• Developing targeted sourcing strategies across LinkedIn, direct sourcing, networks and other talent channels
• Building and maintaining strong talent pipelines for current and future hiring requirements
• Providing market insight around candidate availability, compensation, competitor activity and recruitment trends
• Conducting detailed candidate assessment, interviews and screening
• Managing candidate engagement throughout the recruitment process and ensuring a high quality candidate experience
• Advising hiring managers on recruitment strategy, market conditions and candidate expectations
• Working closely with HR Business Partners and wider Talent teams to ensure recruitment activity aligns with the firm's broader people strategy
• Supporting recruitment projects and initiatives designed to improve processes, candidate attraction and employer brand
• Using recruitment data and market intelligence to identify trends and improve hiring outcomes
• Supporting diversity and inclusion initiatives across the firm's recruitment activity

About You

You will ideally have strong experience within an internal recruitment, executive search or professional services recruitment environment.

We are particularly interested in individuals who have:

• Strong experience managing end to end recruitment processes
• Experience recruiting senior and specialist professional services or corporate functions
• Excellent stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to engage senior decision makers
• Strong direct sourcing and headhunting capability
• A consultative approach to recruitment rather than simply candidate delivery
• Excellent knowledge of the UK talent market
• Strong communication and influencing skills
• The ability to manage multiple searches and priorities within a fast paced environment
• A data driven and commercially minded approach to recruitment

Experience within a law firm, professional services organisation, financial services environment or another complex international organisation would be advantageous.

Why This Opportunity?

This is a chance to join a highly regarded international law firm at a senior level within its Talent Acquisition function.

You will have genuine exposure to senior stakeholders, responsibility for important searches and the opportunity to influence how the firm attracts and hires talent across the business.

For someone who enjoys search, stakeholder management and having a genuine impact on hiring, this is a particularly interesting opportunity.
