Director/Principal Level, Legal Recruiter (Remote)

As a Director/Principal, Legal Recruiter, you will have the opportunity to work a flexible desk covering law firm and in house placements within a large territorial range facing limited restrictions but receiving top of the market compensation and resources.

Unlike most legal search firms stateside and abroad, Lateral Link has no ceiling for advancement within a flat organization but rather offers real upward mobility for those hungry to succeed in legal recruiting as a lifelong career.

Founded by Harvard Law School alumni and former practicing attorneys with a vision to lead and not follow, Lateral Link helped to legitimize the legal recruiting industry as a peer with our clients and candidates (as opposed to a vendor) almost twenty years ago. From working on associate placements at regional firms to more senior counsel positions with the Am Law 5 firms as well as single partners at the Am Law 200 to major eight figure group placements that are newsworthy, our team excels at the top of the market in all verticals across various levels.

Our compensation is above market with a 50-70% ratcheted up commission structure, plus yearend discretionary performance bonuses up to 15%, plus annual discretionary Principal-level bonuses, our effective all-in commissions are almost 50% more than that of our largest competitor.

We are not hiring just anyone to join our team, so if you are someone with palatable 'fire in the belly? who who can leverage platform support from our colleagues as well as material investments in resources, then please reach out to Gloria Cannon ([email protected]), General Manager, with your interest level in exploring an informational conversation about Lateral Link.
