Job description

Are you looking for a role with purpose? To work for a company that cares about sustainability and giving back to the community? We’d love to hear from you!

About Us

We are a recruitment agency with purpose and our vision is a world where everyone has equal opportunity to jobs and equal opportunity to reach the top.

We are an award-nominated agency specialising in finding talent for the legal industry. Our clients include international law firms, tech start-ups, and renewable energy companies. We recruit lawyers, paralegals, compliance professionals, marketing & BD, and legal accounts professionals.

Our core belief is that recruitment can be a force for good. We have committed our business to having a triple bottom line and we have created a number of initiatives to help us reach our social responsibility and sustainability goals.

About the Role

We are looking for someone to assist the recruitment consultants with HR and recruitment administration, and candidate resourcing.

This will include:

  • Posting adverts to job boards
  • Arranging interviews
  • Screening candidates over the phone
  • Creating long and shortlists of candidates for roles
  • Managing payroll and responding to queries
  • Proofreading and formatting CVs
  • Uploading candidates to the CRM
  • Drafting employment contracts from a template
  • Completing right to work checks
  • Conducting reference requests

Alongside these HR and recruitment duties, you can also get involved with a number of our other initiatives:

  • Assisting with event planning, from round table breakfasts on specific topics to large client events at Bobbi Brown (designing invitations, arranging food, liaising with suppliers, etc.) and virtual events while still in lockdown
  • Creating blog and social media content with a focus on assisting social mobility in law
  • Participating in volunteering and pro bono activities, perhaps at a legal advice clinic, or we have links with Dress for Success and Inspire!
  • Assisting with ensuring we are conducting business in a sustainable way with minimal impact on the environment

About You

You have to be a people person as you will be interacting with a range of individuals every day! Strong communication and customer service skills are key. A real passion for working in HR and an interest in the legal sector are essential. Alongside this, we are looking for someone who shares our values and ethos.

If you have a law degree, that would be an advantage, as would any internships or work experience in HR or recruitment. The role may also suit a paralegal looking to move into HR.

We have a great training programme, and for someone who is eager and dedicated, we can help you become the best HR and recruitment assistant you can be!

Diversity

We particularly welcome applicants from those who are significantly underrepresented in our sector, such as women, disabled people, and individuals from Black and Minority ethnic communities.

The role is fully remote.
