Talent Acquisition Specialist

We're looking for a different type of in-house recruiter, someone who really knows what Talent Acquisition means, and understands that commercial value add, guidance and insights are just as important as filling vacancies - but that filling vacancies and delivery is where your impact is 'seen' the most. 

They need to be able to work at pace, but be able to provide a high-touch, quality driven service, and have a mindset that's fixed on continuous improvement in an ever changing, high growth and ambitious organisation. They also need to be comfortable in solving problems in first time scenarios.

Our mission is to empower legal professionals to do their best work—supported by cutting-edge technology, a people-first culture, and a shared commitment to excellence.
 

Joining Lawfront means being part of a forward-thinking organisation that values innovation, integrity, and impact. We’re building something special—and we want you to help us shape the future of legal talent.
