A fresh
approach to
legal recruitment

Emily was exceptional throughout the entire recruitment process. She took the time to understand my exact motivations for a move, was incredibly helpful in sharing her expertise/market knowledge, and kept me informed at every juncture. Emily went above and beyond to help me land my ideal role, for which I'm very grateful. She was a genuine pleasure to work with and I couldn't recommend her enough if you are looking for a new role.

Lauren provided invaluable support during the transition to my new role and always made herself available for friendly, objective advice, even outside of normal working hours. Lauren has always been very personable and professional. Her approach helped me prepare for my first interview in over 10 years and instilled in me the confidence to come across as my best self on the day. I'm glad we stay in touch and I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone looking for their next opportunity in the legal sector!

Emily has been extremely proactive in securing my current position for me. She is informative, systematic, and the most enthusiastic recruiter I’ve ever worked with. She listens to your needs and searches appropriate positions for you as if it were her own job search. Emily will work over and beyond her working hours to follow the search through. Emily came across a genuine person who seems to care that you find the right position. I am sure if I ever wish to seek a new opportunity, I will be contacting Emily again.

I worked with Sophie throughout the recruitment process for my current role. Sophie took the time to get to know me, ensure the role was right for me and provided excellent support throughout the whole process. I was given all key information about the role before applying, interview tips and great advice when negotiating my remuneration package. I would highly recommend Sophie and Birchrose Associates.

I used the services of Birchrose Associates in relation to my job search and I was highly impressed by the quality of service I received. Rebecca Smith worked relentlessly to ensure she identified the right firm to suit my personality and experience. She updated me almost daily on progress with my applications which was reassuring. I felt well looked after. I highly recommend Rebecca and Birchrose Associates.

Lauren has really taken the time to get to know our business and understands what we’re looking for in our recruits. She doesn’t send over a CV unless she’s confident that they will fit from both an experience and values perspective – that’s worth its weight in gold. As a result, Lauren has had a brilliant success rate with finding us new team members, and we’re really grateful for her efforts.

We use Birchrose as our first port of call for permanent and temporary roles at all levels. The whole team are a joy to deal with, professional and friendly and always on the ball. You are made to feel like you are their only client, or certainly their favourite! All members of the team are easy to talk to, have taken time to get to know me and our business culture and have sourced excellent high-calibre candidates who are a great fit. I could not recommend Birchrose highly enough!

We have been working with Gemma for about 8 years to recruit paralegals and administrative support staff, primarily for the firm’s residential property department. Gemma has taken the time to really understand the firm, specifically the way in which our residential property team works so that she can find the right candidate who will meet our needs and whose personality and approach will fit in with our team.

I’ve worked recently with Sophie at Birchrose Associates on two Corporate Senior Associate hires, both experiences providing to be excellent – the two hires have now joined us and are integrating successfully. With both processes, Sophie’s communication remained consistent and clear – she even came to our office to meet key members of the firm, which assisted the process. Professional, responsive, and tuned into our requirements – Sophie made hiring senior talent seamless and successful for us.

I honestly can’t recommend Gemma Eggleton at Birchwood Associates highly enough. From the very start, she has gone above and beyond to support me in my job search. Gemma is incredibly proactive, responsive, and genuinely cares about the people she works with. She has taken the time to jump on video calls with me to make sure I feel fully prepared ahead of interviews, which has made such a difference to my confidence. Gemma’s guidance and reassurance has secured me my EA position I so wanted to!

Sam showed extensive knowledge of both the firm and the role he was recruiting for, and that he had been exceptionally thorough in his research/background due diligence. Sam was very accessible throughout the process - being both extremely proactive and responsive - and always available to chat through the various stages and ongoing developments. I greatly appreciated and respected his guidance and counsel throughout the process. He was always highly professional, enthusiastic, and positive - 101% committed - and overall an absolute pleasure to engage with.
