Help Shape the Future of Stone King

Stone King is an ambitious, purpose-driven law firm with a strong reputation and exciting plans for the future. As we continue to grow and evolve, we’re investing in our people, strengthening our capabilities and building the teams that will support our long-term success.

We’re looking for a Senior Talent Acquisition Advisor to join our Talent team at a pivotal time. This is an opportunity to play a highly visible role within the business, partnering with senior leaders to attract exceptional talent and helping shape the future of our firm.

If you’re looking for a role where your expertise is valued, your ideas are welcomed and your impact is tangible, we’d love to hear from you.

About the Role

As a Senior Talent Acquisition Advisor, you’ll lead recruitment across a varied portfolio of legal roles, delivering an outstanding experience for both candidates and hiring managers.

You’ll work closely with stakeholders across the firm, acting as a trusted advisor and providing expert guidance on attraction strategies, market insights and hiring decisions. From building talent pipelines and engaging passive candidates to improving recruitment processes and supporting wider talent initiatives, you’ll play a key role in ensuring we attract and retain the very best people.

This is far more than a delivery-focused recruitment role. You’ll have the opportunity to influence how we identify, engage and secure talent, whilst contributing to projects that support our broader people and firm objectives.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Managing end-to-end recruitment across a diverse range of vacancies
• Partnering with hiring managers and senior leaders to deliver successful hiring outcomes
• Developing creative attraction and sourcing strategies to access top talent
• Building and maintaining talent pipelines for future hiring needs
• Providing market insight and recruitment expertise to stakeholders
• Driving continuous improvement across recruitment processes and candidate experience
• Supporting employer branding, talent attraction and Early Careers initiatives
• Championing an inclusive and engaging recruitment experience

We’re looking for an experienced recruiter who combines commercial awareness with a passion for building relationships and delivering great outcomes.

You’ll bring:

• Proven experience managing end-to-end recruitment
• Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills
• The ability to build credibility and trusted partnerships quickly
• Confidence working on multiple vacancies and priorities simultaneously
• A proactive, solutions-focused approach
• The ability to identify and engage talent in competitive markets
• A genuine commitment to delivering an exceptional candidate experience

Whether your experience comes from an in-house, agency or blended background, you’ll enjoy working collaboratively, challenging the status quo and finding innovative ways to connect great people with great opportunities.

• Competitive reward package including Profit Share, Private Medical Insurance and Life Assurance
• Flexible and hybrid working
• 28 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, enhanced leave provisions and a paid volunteering day
• Investment in your learning, development and career progression
• A supportive, inclusive culture with the opportunity to work alongside recognised sector experts
• Meaningful work that makes a positive impact on clients, communities and society
