Researcher – Executive Search (New York)
📍 NYC | Hybrid (3–4 days/week)
💰 $75k base + bonus ($90k+ first-year earnings)
Executive search is a form of strategic hiring focused on senior leadership and business-critical roles. Instead of high-volume recruitment, the work is research-led, insight-driven, and centred around understanding industries, leadership teams, and talent markets.
Join a specialist executive search firm working on retained searches for senior technology hires for the world's top legal firms.
As a Researcher, you’ll:
• Map talent markets and leadership teams
• Identify and engage senior-level candidates
• Analyse companies, industries, and hiring trends
• Produce research and insight that shapes search strategy
• Support shortlist and client deliverables
This role suits someone analytical, curious, and commercially minded, with strong communication skills and attention to detail.
You’ll work closely with experienced consultants in a small, high-performing New York team backed by an established UK business.
Ideal for graduates or candidates with 6–12 months’ experience in recruitment, research, consulting, or expert networks.
