Testimonials

Below are examples of some recruitment testimonials given to Ken by his candidates along with a brief summary of their backgrounds and the move that was made.

Ken helped me move from London to Ogier in Jersey. He’s a real professional and is great to work with. He has a deep understanding of the offshore legal market and had a lot of insight regarding the differences between various firms. Working with Ken, there’s a focus on building a long-term relationship and what’s the best fit for you as a lawyer – a very refreshing change from a lot of recruiters I’ve encountered. Very highly recommended. 

Magic Circle junior associate to Jersey

I would recommend Ken to all lawyers that are thinking about working offshore. His knowledge of the local market is brilliant, as is ability to recommend and connect you to a firm with a genuine fit.

New Zealand qualified corporate associate to Cayman

Ken took time to listen to what I was looking for and worked with me to achieve that, instead of trying to push roles on me that he had on his books that weren’t what I was looking for. For that reason alone, I would highly recommend anyone looking for a move.

Silver Circle London to top US firm in London

Ken was extremely helpful in my move to Walkers Global in the Cayman Islands. His depth of knowledge in the offshore legal sector as well as the various steps involved in the transition generally were excellent. I would highly recommend working with Ken if you are considering a move offshore.

Scottish-qualified mid level associate to Cayman

Ken did a great job in matching me with Ogier in Guernsey – it was a natural fit but only Ken saw that. Great work in making this a very smooth process and for dealing calmly with all those panicky last minute questions! Thanks so much.

Ken recently helped with my move to London. At all steps in the process he was helpful, informative and insightful. I highly recommend Ken if you are looking to make a move to London or looking for a new role.

New Zealand qualified corporate associate to London

Ken recently placed me at a new firm. He was extremely professional throughout the entire process, which he walked me through every step of the way. Great industry knowledge and his background having been a lawyer himself for a number of years puts him at a great advantage. Definitely someone you want to have in your corner when you are considering a move.

NQ from US firm in London to another US firm in London

Ken has strong, in-depth knowledge of the legal sector and the recruitment market. That, coupled with an approachable, relaxed and friendly personality, made for a great working relationship with Ken as I moved from a large regional firm to the City. Ken placed me during a difficult time in the market for recruiting lawyers in my specialist area so his patience, expertise and advice was particularly key in securing my new role. He is highly recommended by me!

Regional Corporate associate to London firm

What impressed me about Ken is that he had done his homework. He knew my career history and understood the investment funds industry very well. This made discussions far easier on all sides. Ken did not shy away from difficult conversations and had an acute awareness of my need to reach a mutually beneficial agreement with my new employer without starting off on the wrong foot! I recommend him without hesitation.

Funds partner from international firm in London to Guernsey

Ken recently assisted with my move from London to the Cayman Islands. His level of assistance with preparation for interviews was carefully balanced and well judged, and he ensured support was available when needed. The time he has previously spent offshore meant he was well placed to offer useful insights into the benefits and challenges of working and living offshore, helping me to make a properly informed decision. I was wholly impressed with his dedication, energy and involvement in the entire process, and he comes highly recommended.
