Welcome

Let me introduce you...

Moving into a new job or switching career is a huge step. So it helps if you can really get under the skin of an employer you’re considering, to get a feel for what it’s really like to work there. This website outlines what a move to Hays Legal might mean to you – and why we consider ourselves to be the natural first choice not only for the employees and jobseekers who come to us but also for recruitment consultants who want to be the very best they can be.

Hays Legal offers a compelling mix of professional and personal development opportunities to people who want control of their careers. Our business is dynamic and forward-thinking, championing the individualism of its consultants but united in its ambition to be the unrivalled world leader in legal recruitment. We enjoy the vast resources and powerful reach of a world-leading specialist recruitment group – Hays. It’s a combination you’ll benefit from, whatever your stage of career.

If you’re currently working in recruitment, take advantage of the premier division of legal recruitment. Advance to the next level – and the next, and the next – by leveraging off the reputation of one of the market’s most highly respected teams, in an environment that rewards generously and offers unrivalled career potential.

Thinking of moving out of law and into something completely different? Then consider what recruitment offers – the opportunity to have real control over your destiny, and to thrive in a fast-paced, fulfilling environment with the potential for great earnings.

For potential trainees – perhaps graduates considering a choice of professions, or those in client-facing roles looking for a change in direction – here is an opportunity to join a world-class organisation, acknowledged as a leader in its field.

Whoever you are, wherever you are, you can manage your own career at Hays Legal. You will benefit from our world-class training academy, augmented by outstanding mentoring and coaching modules from established recruitment professionals.

We’re in every major UK location, we operate in key international markets and across practice, industry and commerce, financial services and the public and not-for-profit sectors. And the opportunities we offer are tremendous. Looking ahead, you could be a leader in your chosen recruitment field, spearhead our development of niche markets or make an international career move to one of our overseas offices.

Discover all about our working environment and, most importantly, what our own people have to say. If their values and aspirations chime with yours, then I’d love to hear from you.
