You'll be working with law firms, legal professionals and decision-makers, helping connect talented individuals with exciting career opportunities. Alongside learning the recruitment process, you'll develop your sales ability, commercial awareness and negotiation skills.

The personality they're looking for

Our client isn't necessarily looking for someone with a perfect CV. They're looking for someone with the right mentality.

Recruitment is a career that will test you. You'll experience rejection, difficult conversations and deals that don't always go to plan. Resilience is therefore particularly important.

They want individuals who:

• Have a competitive streak and enjoy working towards targets.

• Can handle rejection without losing motivation.

• Are financially ambitious and want to be rewarded for their efforts.

• Are confident, personable and comfortable speaking to new people.

• Have a strong work ethic and take responsibility for their own results.

• Are receptive to feedback and keen to improve.

Previous sales experience is beneficial, but not essential. Graduates and candidates from backgrounds such as estate agency, hospitality, retail and business development are encouraged to apply.

The rewards

• £30,000 starting basic salary.

• Uncapped commission with no limit on earning potential.

• Comprehensive training and ongoing development.

• A clearly defined progression path.

• The opportunity to specialise in the legal recruitment market.

• Regular incentives and team socials.

• The chance to build a valuable network and a highly rewarding career.

The bottom line: If you're ambitious, resilient and prepared to put the work in, our client can provide the platform, training and earning potential to build a successful career in recruitment.
