Law Firms

Alex recently assisted me in my job search and relocation from South Africa to the UK. Throughout the process Alex was genuine, honest and considerate of my particular circumstances and aspirations in his advice. The process, to the credit of Alex, was seamless. He lined up multiple opportunities and walked me through the process of reaching an interview. Once I had reached the interview stage Alex provided excellent guidance on the process and the types of questions I could expect. Once I had landed my desired role Alex remained in contact to ensure a smooth transition. He truly is excellent at what he does.

I would recommend Marsden to any lawyer who is considering an international move. My recruiters were extremely knowledgeable and on top of the various trends in the legal market. They also had long standing relationships with the top tier firms and so I knew they would present me with only the best opportunities. I found they genuinely cared about me and my career move and took the time to understand why I was moving and what type of experience I was looking for. They helped me every step of the way from putting together my resume to prepping for interviews (and calming my nerves!) to negotiating offers and, in the end, helping me decide whether this was truly the right opportunity for me. To this day, they still maintain a keen interest in my progress. It is a testament to their professionalism, honesty, trustworthiness and enthusiasm that we have become friends through this process.

Marsden offers something quite unique; a personal service and a truly global footprint. They invested time at the outset to get to know me and understand my experience. They listened to my goals and suggested several paths to achieve them. They were equally as happy to not put me forward for opportunities they thought were not suitable as they were working proactively and tirelessly on those that were. They were able to offer a round the clock service; from coffee and croissant breakfast meetings to midnight interview preparation calls to 6am good luck texts. Despite the tough economic climate Marsden delivered exactly what I wanted and they promised: relocation from London to Singapore and an opportunity to work for a top tier international firm. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Sonia is well connected in the Middle East and responsive to what is required when looking for, and placing, staff. She’s friendly and persistent in equal measures and someone to whom it is absolutely worth reaching out. She’ll have your best interests front and centre every time.

Tim has been fantastic to work with over the last few years. He has been able to not only find fantastic opportunities for me, but has also been a source of honest, invaluable advice and incredibly deep market knowledge. He is credible, to the point, responsive and reliable. I have recommended him to others and will continue to do so.

Dave was very helpful in navigating the complex legal recruitment process. He was incredibly responsive and very insightful. I couldn't have landed my top-choice position without him.

Jonathan has placed me in a number of roles over the years and I can say without hesitation that his network and knowledge of the legal industry is unparalleled. He is responsive and has always gone above and beyond what is required. I have absolute confidence when placing my career in his hands and can always depend on him to provide honest, forthright advice which is in my best interests. I have recommended Jonathan to many friends and colleagues and have absolutely no hesitation in continuing to do so.
