Risk & Compliance or Legal | Sydney

Visa Sponsorship Available

If you are a commercially minded 360 recruiter with experience in Risk & Compliance or Legal recruitment and are considering a move to Australia, this opportunity offers scale, performance culture and strong earning potential.

We are partnering with a national, professional services-focused recruitment agency with offices across Australia. The business has built deep market expertise over more than a decade, specialising in high-value professional disciplines and delivering long-term partnerships with clients and candidates.

They are now hiring a Senior Recruitment Consultant to join their Sydney office, focusing on either:

- Audit, Risk & Compliance

or
- Legal recruitment

The Opportunity

This is a true 360 permanent recruitment role within a high-performing, specialist team.

You will inherit access to:

- A well-established database and active candidate network
- Strong national brand recognition
- Established client relationships across professional services
- Cross-office collaboration to maximise market access

The market opportunity is strong. What they need is a commercially driven recruiter who can execute business development, deepen relationships and convert chance into revenue.

Why This Role Stands Out

High-Performance Environment
The business promotes collaboration, mentorship and innovation while maintaining a clear focus on performance and revenue growth.

Industry-Leading Commission Structure
The commission model is designed to significantly reward high performers:

Quarterly thresholds begin at $70k, with commission escalating from 30% up to 45%,



and top performers exceeding $500k annually can earn 50% commission with no threshold for the remainder of the year.

Clear Career Progression
The firm offers structured progression pathways and opportunities across interstate offices for long-term career growth.

Strong Market Presence
The business has an established national footprint and deep relationships across finance, professional services and risk disciplines.

Visa & Relocation

Visa sponsorship is available for eligible international candidates.

To qualify, candidates typically require:

- Two years of relevant 360 recruitment experience plus a degree, or
- Five years of relevant 360 recruitment experience

Full relocation support may be negotiated depending on the candidate's profile.

Who This Role Suits

This opportunity is ideal for recruiters who:

- Have 3+ years of 360 agency recruitment experience
- Have experience in Risk & Compliance, Legal or other professional services markets
- Are commercially driven and confident in business development
- Thrive in performance-led environments
- Want access to a stronger market and long-term earning potential

Life in Sydney

Australia offers a strong job market, excellent work-life balance and a thriving professional services sector. With Sydney as a leading financial hub, this is an attractive long-term move for experienced recruiters seeking both lifestyle and commercial growth.
