I highly recommend James as a recruiter. He is extremely trustworthy, takes the time to truly understand what you’re looking for, and matched me with a fantastic place to work.

What really sets him apart is that his support doesn’t stop once you’ve been placed he continues to stay in touch, checking in to see how you’re getting on, both with your role and settling into the new environment.

He is amazing at what he does and maintains a high level of professionalism throughout the entire process. I would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and reliable recruiter.

Shakeel S.

I had an excellent experience working with Shakeel, who successfully helped me secure a role as a solicitor. Throughout the entire process, he was incredibly responsive, polite, and professional. He kept me consistently up to date at every stage, communicating frequently via both calls and emails, which made the whole process seamless and reassuring.
Shakeel liaised with the hiring team with a high level of professionalism and diligence, and he was extremely efficient when it came to negotiating the terms of my employment. His attention to detail, dedication, and clear understanding of both my needs and the employer’s expectations truly set him apart.
Having worked in the legal industry for five years, I can confidently say that Shakeel is the best recruiter I have worked with. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking a recruiter who is reliable, proactive, and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome.

Emily Walker - Fantastic 5* Service

Emily was fantastic and supportive from the very beginning. She listened to what I was looking for and asked lots of questions to ensure she only contacted employers who were a good fit for me. Emily communicated with me throughout the entire process and I cannot thank her enough for helping to secure me a job. I would recommend Headhunter Legal & Professional Ltd.

Redundant for only 3 weeks

When the company I had worked for for 8 years closed down overnight, I was very worried about my future.
The wonderful Dan quickly talked me through options and within a week, I had three interviews. Each one was a brilliant fit and Dan took the time to talk through the pros and cons of each position with me.
When I had made a decision, Dan was able to negotiate my pay slightly higher per year and was attentive throughout the interviews.
Within 3 weeks of losing my job, I was stepping into a new and better role; I would highly recommend Dan and the team at Headhunter LP

Shakeel Shamsuddin

Your agent Shakeel Shamsuddin contacted me after seeing my C.V. He went through my skills as outlined in my C.V in great detail. He asked me what I was looking for and contacted me the following day about a role that he thought would suit me. He submitted my C.V and came back to me with interview times scheduled it with the client and gave me some interview pointers. He was very professional, knew what he was talking about and listened to what I was looking for.

Paul took the time to know me and what makes me unique and actively approached his contacts even though they did not have vacancies to showcase my skills and experience. I would use headhunters and Paul as my first choice before approaching similar agencies.

From our initial conversation

From our initial conversation, Victoria's support was exceptional, even given the unusual circumstances. She was consistently available and offered her insights in a manner that was both helpful and constructive. No request was too daunting for her as she consistently went the extra mile. Compared to my dealings with other recruiters before, this experience was completely unique. I would wholeheartedly recommend her and the headhunting team to everyone.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Phill during my recent job search, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From our very first conversation, he was professional, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right opportunity — not just any job, but the right fit for my skills and career goals.

Phill guided me through every step of the process, offering valuable advice, keeping me informed, and always being available to answer my questions. His communication was clear and timely, and I always felt confident knowing he was advocating for me.

Thanks to Phill’s dedication and expertise, I was able to secure a role that I’m truly excited about. If you’re looking for a recruiter who is proactive, reliable, and truly cares about the people he works with, Phill is the person you want in your corner.

Thank you again, Phill, for your outstanding support!

Amazing Experience

Headhunter Legal & Professional were proactive and overall great to deal with.

Emily Walker took the time to review my CV and make appropriate suggestions where applicable. Emily was also great at updating me on new opportunities and took the time to respond to all queries, whether by email/LinkedIn or via the phone. All feedback received from interviews was quickly relayed to me and we would discuss next steps instantly.

I could not recommend Emily and Headhunter Legal enough.

The best experience I’ve ever had with a recruiter! I’m used to one get to know you call and silence, James Atwell was the complete opposite! James kept me updated everyday with potential firms and applications. Most importantly James made sure I never felt pressured to go for a job role I was uncertain about, as a people pleaser I needed to know that. Overall a fab experience, I would highly recommend!

What an amazing experience with Victoria. She worked hard to secure an interview for me and was with me every step of the way from first interview, to second interview to offer made. I feel she heard all my concerns and queries and gave clear feedback, not only to me but to the company as well
