    Department purpose

    With the full backing of Allen & Overy and its global network, Peerpoint finds bespoke talent solutions that drive meaningful impact – for people's careers and businesses alike. Our comprehensive understanding of each is our differentiator, enabling us to deliver outcomes that are unrivalled. Industry recognised, we are proud to be the leading platform for self-directed consultants, those seeking to develop a portfolio of experiences by taking on challenging roles working in-house with clients, A&O practice groups and select private practices. A dynamic, autonomous and significant business within A&O's Advanced Delivery & Solutions (AD&S) portfolio, Peerpoint is a fun and rewarding place to work and is leading the way in introducing real change and opportunity for legal professionals and clients alike.
    Role purpose

    The Peerpoint Resourcing Team are responsible for the attraction, assessment, and recruitment of high-calibre lawyers to the panel as Peerpoint consultants. This created role will lead recruitment and attraction efforts in the GCC region.

    This role will report to the Senior Business Manager, Peerpoint UAE (Dubai) to deliver a best-in-class recruitment experience for candidates, with a view to fast deployment into assignments alongside the Middle East team. The Resourcing Manager, Peerpoint UAE is one of the essential roles for continued growth in the UAE and wider GCC region.

    The role will involve all aspects of the end-to-end recruitment process including candidate identification, CV screening, selection of suitable candidates, interviewing and managing the candidates through the process with the utmost of professionalism and care and in line with business needs. Given the current tight talent market, we are having conversations that are more exploratory in nature with lawyers who are assessing their career options. Therefore, previous experience of career planning conversations will be useful as well as experience of managing talent pools of candidates at various stages of their thinking and commitment to consulting.

    The Resourcing Manager must therefore be able to interact confidently and articulately with a wide variety of applicants, including an ability to interview incisively and sensitively. There will be the opportunity to get very involved with direct candidate sourcing activity, marketing recruitment campaigns and recruitment and consultant community events for the UK panel. As Peerpoint is a global business, the role will also provide support and guidance to our overseas colleagues as needed.
