Sacco Mann is a leading legal and IP recruitment specialist – we have been working in this sector for 27 years and have a long-established prestigious client base. We are now looking to recruit a Recruitment Consultant for our Private Practice team in our Leeds office.

We are a close knit, well-bonded team that has a collegiate and collaborative approach, a great reputation across the market and an unparalleled set of connections.
About the Recruitment Consultant Role:
Join a successful (overproducing) team,
There is a ‘warm desk’ to pick up, in a market where we are already well established with a large, varied client base of law firms – from major international brand names to boutique commercial outfits and high street practices, which makes this a robust market to operate in.
Will suit a recruiter with experience in either Legal Recruitment or a similar professional sector recruitment.

Personal development and career progression is something we focus on, there are no barriers to career progression and progression is entirely based on ability and delivery rather than being time barred or restricted in any way.
We do not have a heavily KPI focused working environment – managers truly understand the market you will be working in and will work closely with you to agree a structure and the best way to approach your desk but ultimately – once up and running - you will have a lot of freedom and autonomy to engage with your clients and candidates in the way that works best for you and your desk.
We have a blended working from home/working from the office environment and have found that this works really well. Being together as a team sharing information, intelligence, tips, successes and woes is really productive and thoroughly enjoyable, but we also enjoy the ability to work from home and focus on our desks.
