An exciting and rare opportunity has arisen for an experienced Recruitment Manager to join a highly respected professional services firm during a key period of growth and transformation. With a workforce that has scaled significantly over recent years, this role will play a central part in shaping and delivering the organisation’s ongoing talent strategy.
This is a well-established, in-house recruitment function, but one that is entering a new phase of development—focusing on process refinement, enhancing the candidate journey, and leading the implementation of an applicant tracking system over the coming year.
You’ll be a trusted partner to senior leaders, department heads, and stakeholders across the business, driving recruitment activity from strategy to delivery, while managing a small team. This role would suit someone with a strong background in in-house recruitment within professional services, who thrives in a busy and fast-paced environment where relationship-building, rigour, and adaptability are key.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Lead all recruitment activity across the business, from approval to offer
2. Advise and influence senior stakeholders on hiring needs and market insight
3. Enhance candidate experience and recruitment effectiveness across all functions
4. Support selection and onboarding processes with a focus on quality and compliance
5. Manage and mentor a recruitment advisor, building capability within the team
6. Oversee recruitment data reporting and compliance
7. Play a key role in implementing new recruitment systems and continuous improvements
What We're Looking For:
1. Strong in-house recruitment experience (professional services background preferred)
2. Confident managing senior stakeholder relationships across multiple departments
3. Excellent understanding of UK employment law and recruitment best practice
4. Experience leading or mentoring a small recruitment team
5. Strategic yet hands-on, able to operate at pace while maintaining high standards
6. Comfortable managing recruitment analytics, reporting, and ATS implementation
7. CIPD Level 5 or above is desirable
What’s on Offer:
1. A forward-thinking, values-led organisation in growth mode
2. The chance to shape how recruitment is delivered in a successful, national firm
3. Supportive, collaborative leadership and a people-first culture
4. Hybrid working with flexibility around office presence
5. A competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package
