If you're thinking about hiring someone into your legal team on an interim basis, please get in touch - we'd be happy to talk through options and solutions that may be suitable. Equally, if you're a solicitor who's always been in permanent employment (whether that's in private practice or in-house) and considering if an interim/consulting move may be the right thing for you, please get in touch. Sometimes the best time to have a conversation is when you're not looking on a hugely active basis so that you better understand the market, types of opportunities, and salaries that could be a possibility when you do decide to make a move. claremccallum@taylorroot.com

12 years ago.......... in an office far, far away QED Legal was born 12 years later we have grown into a leading legal recruitment consultancy We have placed over 3,500 people into new roles We have moved Partners and Teams, set up law firms in new countries as retained consultants, facilitated law firm mergers, built in house legal teams, placed lawyers, IP and compliance professionals all over the globe We have survived a recession, Brexit, numerous elections and changes of government, Covid lockdowns and a whole host of other things that make people pause their recruitment plans And most recently we have moved to being 100% employee owned - so that the next generation of recruiters can carry on the QED evolution in the future and reap the benefits from the ongoing success of this business Most important though is the culture and ethos of QED - we don't cut corners, we are honest and straightforward to deal with, we do a great job for law firms and candidates - just look at the hundreds and hundreds of candidate testimonials on our website - www.qedlegal.com - they are all genuine For me, that is the biggest indicator of how successful we have been as a business

I love hearing "couldn't have been a better placement" from our clients but even more so how we solved a bigger problem for them. This client had no sign off for a permanent hire last year so we advised them to see if they could seek interim resource and successfully placed a contractor into his team. Fast forward six months and he has now been able to secure permanent headcount due to the positive impact of the candidate on the businesses. While our interim legal candidate prefers to remain a consultant, we're now assisting the client in finding an equally brilliant permanent candidate. Many General Counsel are still facing constraints on hiring due to headcount freezes or budget limitations. My recommendation? ✳ Consider securing an interim budget to bridge the gap ✳ Speak to market experts about the options available to you and costing of these ✳ Partner with a recruiter who can offer you a seamless transition between interim and permanent hiring if you want to extend beyond the contract Please reach out to the interim Taylor Root team here in the UK Tatum Colclough, Clare McCallum and Emma Coulter to understand our cost-effective interim solutions in more detail. #legal #inhouse #generalcounsel #legalconsultancy #legalinterim
