Leadenhall Search & Selection are looking for standout, experienced Consultants, Senior Consultants and Principal Consultants to join our dynamic and growing team.

We are a boutique recruitment consultancy based in London, specialising in working with advisory clients across consulting, legal, finance, private equity and asset management. Though based in the UK, over 80% of our revenue comes from North America. With a team of 35 employees and operations across the UK, US, Canada, and Europe, we are expanding and are seeking passionate professionals to be part of our exciting journey.

We’re looking for motivated individuals with 1-5 years of recruitment experience who are eager to take the next step in their career and benefit from substantial professional growth within a fantastic team culture. We offer flexibility, competitive salaries and an extremely lucrative commission structure. Our billers take home an average of 40-45% of the revenue they bring in.

Key Responsibilities:

• Build and manage your own recruitment desk, focused on generating client revenue from scratch.
• A focus on high-growth areas, ideally covering one of the following: Technology, Renewable Energy, Life Sciences, Investment Banking, Private Equity/Hedge Funds, and other emerging markets.
• Develop new business through effective client development, strategic outreach, and market research.
• Use LinkedIn and other platforms for sourcing, outreach, and relationship-building with prospective clients and candidates.
• Achieve and exceed personal and team targets, ensuring strong billing performance and not relying on warm roles.
• Work under pressure in a fast-paced, results-driven environment, with enthusiasm and determination.

Who We're Looking For:

• Proven experience in recruitment with a strong billing track record.
• Expertise in client development and the ability to win new business.

What’s on Offer:

• 1-2-1 support from your direct manager, ensuring ongoing personal and professional growth.
• Outstanding commission structure, one of the most competitive in the market, offering fantastic earning potential.
• Competitive family-friendly policies, including maternity and paternity leave, because we want people to build a career here without having to choose.
• Hybrid working model.
• Clear targets and opportunities for quick progression and promotion.
• Competitive salary and benefits package, including private healthcare, wellbeing allowance, and luxury gym membership.
• Fast-growing company with growth plans in the US.
• Opportunities to develop your own area of expertise and potentially build your own team following rapid career progression.
• A non-hierarchical, flat structure and a collaborative culture with a fun, supportive team environment.
• Frequent social events and company trips abroad - in 2026 we have been to Val Thorens in a 5 star resort as well as a week away in the Essex countryside in a stately home.
• A vibrant office on Bermondsey Street, a fantastic office location.
• 30% YoY Growth, meaning you'd be joining at an exciting time.
