We worked with the Thames Valley office of a Top 100 Law Firm that also has a strong presence in The City. The firm was looking to increase their regional turnover from £12m to £18m (in the next 3 years). Our client had a very strong brand for Commercial work but had been struggling to attract the right calibre of candidates from the larger teams/firms in the area.
After meeting with the CEO and going onto meet with the Heads of Real Estate, Employment, TMT and Corporate, Apex Professional Search were instructed to find Partners within each team. Through extensive pre-research and utilising our extensive network of contacts in the local market, we were able to provide our client with a detailed report of how they were perceived in the marketplace and talk through and address any misconceptions before taking their projects active. By taking this approach, Apex Professional Search was able to give a clear and accurate analysis of our clients plans, strategy, and ambitions for growth.
Within three months we had secured Four Partners for their Real Estate, Employment TMT and Corporate teams, helping the firm increase turnover and profitability. Three of those Partners were so successful that they went on to set up an additional office for the firm.
We have worked with this Law Firm for over 10 years and they are a now a major name in the Thames Valley Market.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Rebecca when I was looking to move from my last firm in the City. She had an excellent knowledge of the London and regional market and quickly understood what my own requirements were and used that to identify some really interesting opportunities. We are still in touch and I would definitely recommend Rebecca for her insight, connections, discretion and perseverance.
