For over three decades, Anakin Seal Legal Recruitment — the specialist legal arm of IPS Group — has been connecting exceptional legal professionals with leading law firms and in-house legal teams across the UK.
We’re now looking for an ambitious Senior Recruitment Consultant to join our established team in either Manchester or Leeds. This is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership of a desk, work with a respected brand, and grow your career within a reputable and established legal recruitment business.
Why You’ll Love Working with Us
- A brand with real credibility: Over 30 years of market presence and a trusted nationwide network of clients and candidates.
- Warm desk & strong relationships: Step into an established portfolio with repeat business and loyal clients.
- Outstanding earning potential: Competitive base salary with an uncapped bonus scheme and additional performance incentives.

- Flexible working model: Enjoy a hybrid setup with agreed flexibility.
What We’re Looking For
You’ll already be an experienced 360 recruiter, ideally with legal sector experience — or perhaps you’re a qualified legal professional ready to transition into a dynamic, client-facing role.
We’re looking for someone who brings:
- Proven ability to manage the full recruitment lifecycle
- Strong relationship-building and networking skills
- Excellent communication and consultative sales abilities
- A proactive, solution-oriented approach
- A genuine passion for delivering quality and integrity in everything you do
