Senior Consultant - Legal BD, Marketing & Communications
Roles I Recruit
I am a specialist senior recruiter in Marketing, Business Development, and Communications for the legal sector at Ambition. I focus on recruiting for permanent positions, ranging from entry-level roles to junior management.
I began my career at Ambition in 2019 as an Associate Consultant within the BD & Marketing team. In May 2021, I transitioned to an internal recruiter role at Ambition. After nearly a year, I realised my passion for the legal BD & Marketing space and returned to my core expertise in April 2022.
I take great pride in delivering exceptional service to both my clients and candidates. My goal is to connect clients with the brightest talent and help my candidates find their ideal positions.
Outside of work, I’m a proud mum who enjoys traveling and spending time with family and friends, always looking for new experiences and making memories along the way.
What candidates and clients are saying

Grace was fantastic from start to finish when she presented a great opportunity to me, throughout the process she was clear and straightforward, direct and timely. I never felt I was out of the loop and always felt I was up to speed on the situation, and that she was only ever one quick phone call away if ever I had any questions. Grace was also always sure to put me in one of her colleagues safe hands whenever she wasn't available, which was greatly appreciated.Couldn't recommend Grace enough!

Grace helped me land a dream role in-house this summer and supported me every step of the way - she was always on hand if I had questions about interviewing or about different roles. I would happily recommend Grace if you're looking to take the next step in your career.

Having had no luck with creative recruitment agencies, I recently hired a Middleweight Designer through Ambition. Following what had been a long, unsuccessful search, I worked closely with Grace to find the right candidate. She came to see me at my office and discuss my requirements as well as going through the job description I had issued to ensure there were no problems. Grace kept me updated throughout the process and organised interviews and assisted with getting the job offer out and start date organised with the candidate alongside our HR team.
