Job Description
Love the Legal Profession. Ready for a Different Kind of Success?
Not every legal career has to follow the traditional path.
For many Solicitors and Paralegals, there comes a point where they begin to wonder what else is out there. Not because they've fallen out of love with the legal sector, but because they're looking for greater autonomy, stronger financial rewards, more recognition for their efforts, and a career where their potential isn't limited by a chargeable hours target.
At QED Legal, we've spent years helping legal professionals successfully transition into recruitment, and some of our highest-performing consultants are former lawyers and paralegals who once sat exactly where you're sitting today.
As a specialist legal recruiter, you'll remain at the heart of the legal profession, working closely with law firms, in-house legal teams and legal professionals across the UK. You'll use your legal knowledge, commercial awareness and understanding of the market to help shape careers, build relationships and become a trusted adviser to both clients and candidates.
The skills you've developed in practice are often the same skills that make outstanding recruiters. The ability to communicate effectively, understand complex situations, build credibility, manage expectations and develop lasting professional relationships are all highly transferable. What you may not have yet is recruitment experience – and that's where we come in.
QED Legal provides comprehensive training, ongoing mentorship and a proven development programme designed to help ambitious legal professionals build successful and rewarding recruitment careers. You'll be supported every step of the way by experienced recruiters who understand both the legal market and the transition you're making.
We're currently interested in speaking with Solicitors and Paralegals based in Manchester, Newcastle or Glasgow who are curious about exploring a different career path within the legal sector.
What's particularly exciting about joining QED Legal is the variety of opportunities available. While we're widely recognised as one of the UK's leading legal recruitment specialists, we also have a thriving and rapidly growing Compliance division. This means your legal background could open doors to opportunities across both traditional legal recruitment and the increasingly important compliance, risk and governance markets.
As an employee-owned business, everyone shares in our success. Our consultants benefit from industry-leading commission structures, bi-annual profit share payments, genuine career progression opportunities and a culture that rewards performance without sacrificing work-life balance. We believe talented people should be trusted, supported and rewarded properly for the value they create.
For those willing to embrace something new, the rewards can be significant. Many of our consultants have built careers that offer greater flexibility, stronger earning potential and more control over their professional future than they ever imagined possible in practice.
If you're ready to stay connected to the legal profession while exploring a career that offers challenge, progression, financial reward and genuine long-term opportunity, we'd love to have a confidential conversation.
