West End or City Commercial Firm?

It's not for everyone...

Bridge Legal is not your average recruitment agency. Over the last 15 years or so we've carved out a niche in the small to mid sized firms market in London, particularly the West End and City. We're very experienced at making a business case for our candidates and we know exactly the kind of people these firms are looking for.

Have a look at our website for more information (Google us) and some of the testimonials/case studies from both our candidates and client firms. This market is not just one area of our business, it is at the core of it as you'll see from our site.

As most lawyers know, the number of vacancies in this sector has been up and down since the financial crisis of 2008/9 and we're expecting more uncertainty following the EU referendum. However, we specialise in creating openings for highly commercial candidates in firms where there is usually no formal vacancy. People tend to think about safety first and holding on to their existing role in a volatile market which means for those entrepreneurial, dynamic, highly commercial candidates, this is exactly the time to make a move - you are in the driving seat.

We concentrate on only a handful of candidates at any one time, most of whom have followings of various sizes but many that don't. A commercial awareness, however, is essential.

We are clear that "it's not for everyone", but if you are somebody with a following, (particularly in property, company/commercial or commercial litigation), strong contacts and/or a proven track record in business development we'd like to hear from you. If we can't help you we won't waste your time pretending we can.

If you've not made a move for a while or are nervous about dealing with agents, give us a call. We are extremely discreet and absolutely scrupulous when it comes to privacy, something that is essential in a market like ours.
