This role is ideal for:

• Keep LOXO CRM accurate and up to date
• Prepare brief summaries of candidates
• Assist with Pirical data and building candidate lists
• Coordinate interview schedules
• Manage follow-ups and keep candidates warm
• Work closely with the Director and US hiring partners

Long-Term Progression (Optional)

For candidates who want to grow, we offer:

• training to become a US legal recruiter
• structured promotion into delivery consultant
• potential progression into a closer role
• higher salary bands after year one
• bonuses based on performance

If you prefer to stay in a stable resourcer role, that is also welcome.
