For law firms I have a wealth of experience finding lawyers for UK and international posts. I work both on a contingent basis, establishing long-term relationships with law firms to provide them with talented individuals, and on search/ headhunting assignments to fill specific posts.
In my 20 years of legal recruitment, I’ve honed a smooth and efficient process that focuses on the quality not quantity of candidates and builds on my own experience as an international corporate lawyer.
I work closely with recruiting partners or HR departments to get a clear picture of the calibre and expertise of the candidates you need. I can help you pinpoint specific hiring requirements, both in terms of hard skills, like technical excellence and commercial benefit, and soft attributes, like personality.
I find the right people using my contacts and my knowledge of the market. I don’t operate a “volume” business but concentrate on providing a small number of excellent CVs rather than a raft of inappropriate ones. Though I advertise to reach the widest range of candidates, a sizeable percentage come through referrals and repeat instructions.
I always provide added-value services to my clients, from market analysis of sectors or jurisdictions to information on salary trends & strategic planning for departmental expansion.
