We’re happy to share that SSQ has once again placed first in Recruiter magazine’s HOT 100 list for 2025. The annual ranking recognises the UK’s highest-performing recruitment businesses, and results reflect what has been another strong period for the business.
This year’s results come against a backdrop of an increasingly competitive and evolving recruitment market, with specialist firms outperforming larger, volume-driven businesses. SSQ’s continued position at the top of the ranking reflects both the depth of our specialist legal expertise and the consistent performance of our teams globally in building and maintaining long-term relationships with clients and candidates alike.
“We are pleased to place at the top of the Recruiter HOT 100 for the second year running,” said SSQ Co-CEO Adam Brown. “SSQ remains one of the most established specialist legal recruiters in the market and our sustained performance reflects a long-term commitment to a high-quality, relationship-led approach to legal search, alongside continued investment in our people and international platform.”
“We remain grateful to our clients and candidates for the trust they place in us, which remains central to everything we do, and the opportunity to work with exceptional legal talent worldwide.”
We’re proud to see SSQ recognised again with this achievement, which reflects the work of our teams across all our offices and the consistency of our approach across markets: thank you to everyone who has contributed to our success in the last year and we look forward to building on this momentum through 2026.
