Head of Internal Recruitment
Real Estate Consultancy | London-based with hybrid working
Shape the future of talent for a fast-growing, forward-thinking property consultancy.
This is a rare opportunity to lead internal recruitment for a highly regarded, independent real estate consultancy with a strong track record across commercial property, building consultancy, and technical services. As Head of Internal Recruitment, you’ll manage an embedded RPO model that delivers permanent hiring across the UK and Europe – playing a critical role in how the business attracts, hires, and retains top-tier talent.
A values-led firm where people and quality go hand in hand.
You’ll be responsible for overseeing an established internal recruitment function, managing a small delivery team and working directly with HR and senior leadership to shape hiring plans and workforce strategy. From fee-earning consultants to business services and operational hires, your team will drive full lifecycle recruitment across all business areas.
This is a hands-on and strategic role – focused on improving processes, systems, and candidate experience, while also supporting DE&I, early careers, and employer branding. You’ll bring structure, insight and energy to a function that has grown with the business – and is now ready to be taken to the next level.
We’re looking for an experienced internal recruitment or RPO leader with a passion for quality delivery.
You’ll bring credibility and a consultative mindset – someone who can influence, challenge and collaborate with senior stakeholders while ensuring best practice is followed throughout the hiring journey. Sector experience in professional services, real estate, construction or consultancy would be advantageous, but more important is your ability to operate with pace, purpose and professionalism.
This is an excellent opportunity to make a visible impact in a business that is growing consistently – and one that places real value on its people, its culture, and its reputation.
