HIRING CONSULTATION

Investing the time upfront

We understand that you’re busy. That’s why we invest the time at the start of the hiring process to fully understand your requirement. By getting to know the sort of person and the skillset you’re looking for, as well as understanding your firm’s culture, we’ll only ever introduce candidates who we’re confident would be a good fit for your team.

We offer a dedicated 1-on-1 hiring consultation to all clients. If you’re ready to speak to us about your job brief, please get in touch.

LOCUM SUPPORT

Delivering quality locum support, every time

Locums offer law firms a flexible and adaptable approach to staffing, without the long-term commitment. Hiring a locum can be an incredibly effective solution to a business-critical need, giving you confidence that you can still deliver on those all-important projects with highly skilled and experienced staff.

Here are just a few reasons you might benefit from a locum:

  • Unforeseen absence and sickness
  • Notice period cover for new hires
  • Maternity leave and other planned absence
  • Increased workload and project work
  • Absence during the holiday periods

Our specialist locum team is known for its consistent and successful service offering. We have a strong network of locum candidates who can hit the ground running and temporarily support your business, often at short notice. Having placed a high number of our locum professionals into multiple assignments, we understand their strengths and what they can bring to your business.
