• Build and maintain longlists of high-calibre executive talent
• Engage with candidates and sources to develop market intelligence
• Collaborate closely with colleagues across different practice areas

What We’re Looking For

• ~12 months’ experience in executive search research, or a strong contingent recruiter looking to step up
• Excellent academic background and proven research capability
• Strong proficiency with AI tools to enhance research and delivery
• High levels of organisation, curiosity, and attention to detail

Why Join?

• Clear, structured progression path to Partner
• Exposure to high-value, C-suite assignments (average fee size c.£80k)
• Collegiate, collaborative culture with strong cross-team interaction
• Backed by a larger international group

• Basic salary of £40,000 - £45,000.
• Competitive bonus structure paid twice annually, typically ranging from c.25–35% of base salary

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to elevate their career within a high-quality, retained executive search environment.
