About Us

We are part of a wider group of businesses specialising in Executive Search, helping organisations identify, attract and appoint senior-level talent across a range of industries.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, organised and confident individual to join our Leeds office for a 12-month placement year. This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in a busy professional office environment, taking on real responsibility across both office management and internal recruitment.

The Role

This is a varied, hands-on role where no two days will be the same. You will play an important part in keeping the office running smoothly, while also supporting the internal recruitment team with hiring new talent into the business.

You will gain exposure to different areas of the business, develop your communication and organisational skills, and build valuable experience in both administration and recruitment.

• The ability to multitask and prioritise in a busy, fast-paced environment.
