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.
