About the role

We're seeking an experienced recruiter to join our growing Private Practice division in Manchester.

You'll inherit a thriving Legal Compliance desk, recruiting for positions including COLPs, COFAs, Risk & Compliance Managers, AML Analysts, Conflicts Specialists, Compliance Officers and Heads of Risk & Compliance. We have established relationships with law firms of all sizes across the UK, from boutique specialist practices to major national and international firms, providing access to an engaged client base and regular recruitment requirements. With a sizeable territory and a growing demand for compliance talent across the legal sector, you'll be perfectly positioned to build a market-leading desk and generate substantial billings from an already warm platform.

This is an ideal opportunity for a recruiter who wants to operate in a mature, high-trust environment where performance is measured by results rather than activity metrics.
