TPG is a boutique staffing firm headquartered in Midtown Manhattan. We place professionals across Technology, Accounting & Finance, Legal, Administrative, and Human Resources on both direct hire and consulting engagements. The Professional Services Group covers Legal, Administrative, HR, and Operations — a practice that spans everything from first-day executive assistants to senior paralegals at AmLaw firms. We are growing this division deliberately, and this hire is central to that growth.

You’ll run a full-cycle desk placing legal and administrative professionals across law firms, financial services companies, and corporate environments on direct hire and consulting engagements. This is a relationship-first role and the professionals you place have long careers, move between organizations, and refer colleagues. The recruiters who succeed here are the ones who treat every candidate interaction as the start of a long-term relationship, not a transaction.

You’ll manage multiple searches at once, develop your own client relationships, and have real input into how the Professional Services division grows. High performers in this role have moved into client ownership, practice leadership, and team management. The path is open and tied to what you produce

• Partner with hiring managers and client contacts to align on role requirements, compensation benchmarks, and candidate profiles before sourcing begins
• Manage the offer and onboarding process through start date; stay in contact post-placement to drive repeat business, referrals, and long-term account growth
• Leverage Bullhorn ATS, Linked In Recruiter, and AI-powered sourcing tools to work efficiently across multiple active searched
• Contribute market intelligence on compensation trends, talent availability, and competitor activity that helps TPG position the Professional Services division more effectively
