Job description

Legal Recruitment Consultant Sheffield

£competitive Salary and Bonus

Have you built your career within law? . Ever wondered what else you could do with it?

Maybe you're an experienced solicitor, legal executive, or senior legal professional.

• You know the legal market.
• You understand the pressures.
• You know what makes a great lawyer.
• You’ve built relationships, credibility and a professional network.

But perhaps you’re starting to think about a change?

What if you could take everything you've learned and use it to build a completely different career — without leaving the legal sector behind?

Have you considered legal recruitment?

At CRA Consulting, we work with legal professionals and law firms every day, helping people make career moves and businesses build their teams.

• And your legal experience could give you a huge advantage.
• You already understand the people you’d be speaking to.
• You understand the market.
• You understand the career paths.
• And you have credibility that takes years to build.

The Benefits

• Competitive salary as well as bonus
• 25 days holiday plus additional birthday day
• Access to the best technology in the market
• Team incentives including fast food friday and away days rewarding high performance
• Opportunity to progress your career with no time limits for the right person

The recruitment skills can be taught. Your legal experience can't.

We're looking for people who are confident, commercially minded and genuinely interested in people. You'll need to be comfortable building relationships, having conversations with senior professionals, working towards goals and being proactive in developing your own network.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone with drive, resilience and ambition — someone who wants to take the experience they've built in law and turn it into something new.

This isn't about starting again at entry level. It's about taking an established professional career and using it in a different way.

You’ll receive the training and support to develop your recruitment skills while building on the experience you've already gained.
