Recruitment Consultant

Legal Recruitment Consultant | Charlotte, NC | $55,000–$80,000 base + commission Are you a recruitment consultant ready to stop building from scratch and start billing from day one? We're hiring on behalf of one of the largest specialist direct-hire staffing groups in the United States — a $250M+ global platform with 15 offices worldwide and a strong, growing presence in Charlotte. This is an opportunity to join an already high-performing private practice desk with 300+ live requisitions and warm client relationships across AmLaw law firms nationally. No cold start. No building a book from zero. Just you, a loaded desk, and the infrastructure to run with it. Role You'll be placing Associates and Counsel-level attorneys into AmLaw law firms across the US, focusing on litigation and/or transactions/corporate private practice. The desk is nationally unrestricted — you can support placements anywhere in the country from your Charlotte base. Level is flexible: Consultant, Principal, or AVP depending on your experience. A 360 background is preferred, though strong 180 candidates with a perm-dominant focus will be considered. Why this opportunity stands out 300+ live roles from day one — one of the most active private practice desks in the US market right now High-fee market — litigation placements averaging $40–45K per deal; transactions at $60–70K per deal Platform at scale — the backing of a global group means proprietary tech, cross-brand client relationships, and genuine infrastructure. This is not a boutique or a startup. Charlotte's growth moment — the office is on an aggressive growth trajectory and is identified as a key US growth catalyst. Coming in now means growing with it and having a genuine path to leadership. Low ego, high performance — a team‑first culture with experienced professionals at every level. Not a grad shop. Experienced recruiters are treated like experienced recruiters. Future vertical opportunity — for the right hire, the chance to build and launch an in-house legal recruitment desk, leveraging an existing corporate and financial services client base. What we're looking for Experience in legal recruitment or a transferable background in professional services / financial services recruitment A track record of billing and placing in a perm-focused desk. Resilience and strong candidate outreach capability Charlotte-based or willing to relocate — hybrid working (4 in / 1 remote) Driven, collaborative, and commercially minded Compensation Base salary: $55,000–$80,000 (level‑dependent, with flexibility for exceptional candidates) Lucrative commission structure (no draw) with strong earning potential at pace Hybrid working | Competitive benefits package Interested?
