Recruitment Consultant / Executive Search Consultant
Dubai | Hybrid Working | International Travel
Zagros Search is a specialist legal executive search firm operating across Germany, the UK and the United States.
We advise leading international law firms on strategic hiring mandates, ranging from associates and counsel through to partner and team moves.
We are looking for an ambitious, commercially minded consultant who enjoys speaking with senior professionals, building relationships and opening new opportunities in the market.
This is not a transactional recruitment role.
Success in our business comes from developing trusted relationships with clients and candidates, understanding market dynamics and becoming a genuine adviser within your specialist area.
The successful individual will work closely with the founders, key stakeholders across the business and a growing international client base.
The role will involve engaging with senior lawyers, partners and law firm leadership teams across Europe and North America, identifying opportunities, developing new business relationships and helping drive the continued growth of the firm.
What You'll Be Doing
- Building relationships with senior legal professionals and law firm partners.
- Identifying and developing new business opportunities across Germany and the United States.
- Managing search assignments from initial briefing through to completion.
- Conducting market mapping and headhunting projects.
- Working closely with clients to understand strategic hiring needs.
- Developing long-term candidate and client relationships.
- Contributing to the growth of existing accounts and opening new client relationships.
- Working collaboratively with colleagues across Dubai and London.
What We're Looking For
- Naturally confident communicator who enjoys speaking to people.
- Ambitious and commercially driven.
- Curious, intelligent and relationship-focused.
- Positive energy and a genuine team player mentality.
- Comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders and decision-makers.
- Self-motivated with a strong sense of accountability.
- Someone who wants to build a career rather than simply work a desk.
- Recruitment experience is advantageous, but attitude, character and communication skills matter more.
What We Offer
- Opportunity to join a growing international search firm with significant ambitions.
- Hybrid working model combining office and home working.
- International business travel across Europe and North America.
- Regular team trips and company events.
- Competitive salary and performance-based bonus structure.
- Direct exposure to senior clients and decision-makers from day one.
- A collaborative environment where performance, initiative and professionalism are recognised.
A Note on Culture
We're not looking for the loudest person in the room or someone attracted by recruitment stereotypes.
We are looking for someone ambitious, professional, who enjoys building relationships and wants to be part of a high-performing team.
Our team is energetic and collaborative.
We care about standards, accountability and continuous improvement, but we also enjoy what we do.
The right person will add to that culture through positivity, curiosity, and a genuine desire to contribute to something being built for the long term.
If you're someone who enjoys speaking to the market, developing relationships and helping build a business with international reach, we'd be interested in hearing from you.
