After speaking with many recruiters in London throughout my job search, I can confidently say that Adam’s dedication, responsiveness and proactive approach makes him a true leader in legal recruitment, as well as a pleasure to work with. He took the time to genuinely understand what I was looking for, had excellent industry connections and insight, and was key to ensuring I secured my ideal position from Australia. I was very pleased with the outcome and would highly recommend Adam to others.

Adam’s knowledge and connections in the industry combined with his proactive approach gave me confidence that I was putting my best foot forward in the application process. I found this particularly important given I was moving across to the UK from Australia.

He was professional, kept me regularly updated and prepared me well for the nuances of the recruitment processes of each respective firm I interviewed with.

Ultimately, I was pleased with the outcome and would happily recommend Adam to others.

Really enjoyed working with Curtis. He was pivotal in helping me secure a role in London, working with me to understand the role I was looking for and providing valuable insight into the London market. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking to secure an M&A role in London.

Was great working with Curtis – his professional yet amiable character sets him apart from his peers and having been placed by him I am already thinking how best we can continue our working relationship for ongoing recruitment. Would happily recommend to anyone!

Curtis was instrumental in helping me secure a M&A role in London. On arriving from New Zealand, he quickly brought me up to speed on the London market and took the time to clearly understand the type of role I was looking for. He takes a proactive approach, ultimately bringing forward very relevant opportunities. His guidance through the recruitment process was excellent – I would highly recommend reaching out if you are exploring opportunities in M&A.

Curtis assisted me in securing a Partner role at FRP Advisory. There was no open mandate for the role but he identified the need within the organisation and approached me with the role. I have known Curtis for a while before that so he knew very well what I would be interested in and what I would value within an organisation. He was attentive to my needs and not just another search firm who is trying to fill a position no matter what. Curtis helped with negotiations, was proactive, responsive and acted professionally throughout the whole process. I could not recommend Curtis more and hope to be able to use his services in the future as our team grows.
