Interim recruitment
Our interim legal recruitment team was launched in 2012 and since then we have built up one of the strongest track records in the market. Working with the leading UK, US and international law firms as well as many of the mid-sized, specialised and boutique practices, we have helped supplement teams at all levels of seniority including;
- Qualified lawyers: newly qualifieds, associates, senior associates and partners
- Document review professionals
- Paralegals
Recruiting for the interim legal market requires a different set of skills. We provide a dedicated service to clients looking for a trusted partner who will provide a highly responsive, reliable, commercial and flexible service.
Benefits of hiring interims
Cost saving
Hiring contract and interim lawyers can help keep costs down. By only paying for the resource when it is needed, businesses can better control their spend.
Flexibility
Non-permanent hires can be utilised for fluctuations in work, while not being a permanent cost to the business. We work with clients who take on additional resource for periods varying from a few days up to 18 months and beyond.
Maternity & paternity cover/long-term sickness
Interims allow for continuity in a role while the current incumbent is on long-term leave, resulting in no loss of productivity.
Headcount restrictions
Contractors can provide legal resource under legal spend instead of headcount spend – getting around permanent headcount sign-off issues.
Access to talent
The combination of exposure to varied work and personal flexibility has led to an influx of top tier lawyers making a move into the interim market. Clients are able to access and harness this talent in a cost effective way.
