Candidate Services

At gmk we place lawyers from newly qualified to partner level. We offer honest knowledgeable career advice to all of our candidates using market knowledge gained since our inception in 1998.

We promise our candidates the following:

  • A one-to-one relationship with your own consultant (all of whom are ex-lawyers)
  • Honest career advice throughout – from CV drafting through to offer stage
  • A professional service where we always obtain your express consent before sending out your CV, return your phone calls and keep you updated throughout the process
  • A client base encompassing all major law firms ensuring you have access to the widest range of jobs.

You will probably find us more proactive than other agencies – instead of merely matching you to existing vacancies we apply imagination and lateral thinking to uncover the perfect position for you. Alternatively it may not be the right time for you to move – we will advise you if that is the case.

Even if you are not actively seeking a new job we are always on hand to advise on matters such as salary levels, current market conditions, or career planning. Our aim is to establish a long term relationship with you whereby we can advise and assist you through the various stages of your career.
