I am Jennifer, a Talent Acquisition professional with 5+ years of experience delivering full-cycle recruitment across the UK, Europe, Asia, and the Americas. After leading global recruitment and talent development functions from Washington DC and London, I now work as a freelance Service Delivery Partner, specialising in the legal sector. My background spans international hiring, project-based recruitment, and building diverse, high-performing teams. This experience gives me a strong foundation for supporting law firms, in-house legal teams, and growing organisations seeking exceptional legal talent.

 

Throughout my career, I’ve recruited for complex, multi-disciplinary roles, across a broad range of seniority levels, managed 30+ vacancies simultaneously, and partnered with stakeholders across 40+ countries. I am driven by the belief that great recruitment is both strategic and tactical. And while I am a fan of AI, I also believe that a human touch is essential for making the strongest partnerships.

 

I take pride in fair, inclusive hiring practices and in creating a process where candidates feel respected, informed, and confident. Likewise, fostering connections where clients feel informed, understood, and presented with well-matched talent in a timely manner is essential. I am particularly passionate about legal recruitment because it brings together the precision, analytical thinking, and trust that define great partnerships.

 

My approach is grounded in clear communication, thorough talent mapping and a genuine interest in people’s career stories. Whether I am sourcing a specialist legal hire or supporting a client through a full hiring campaign, my goal is always the same: to connect the right person to the right opportunity in a way that feels seamless, transparent, and positive for everyone involved.

Choosing the right Recruiter can make the difference between a long, uncertain hiring process and a smooth, strategic placement that elevates your team. My approach is shaped by five years of international recruitment experience and a track record of delivering fast, effective, and inclusive hiring solutions, now focused specifically on the legal sector.

A Strategic, Relationship-Led Approach: I believe successful recruitment begins with understanding the role, the organisational culture, and the human qualities that make a professional thrive in a legal environment. I take time to partner closely with clients, translating their needs into targeted search strategies and structured assessment processes. For candidates, I focus on honest guidance, clarity, and support throughout the journey.

Proven Results: I have delivered end-to-end recruitment across 40+ countries, consistently meeting KPIs for time-to-hire while maintaining rigorous quality standards. I’m experienced in managing busy hiring pipelines, designing effective and creative attraction strategies, and building diverse candidate shortlists. My background working with senior stakeholders means I’m comfortable navigating complexity, confidentiality, and the careful matching required in legal recruitment.

Expertise in Inclusive and Fair Hiring: I am passionate about embedding fairness into every stage of the recruitment process. I ensure that decisions are based on capability, not bias. Clients benefit from balanced shortlists and transparent assessment methods candidates experience a process designed to respect their time, their expertise, and their individuality.

A Personal, Tailored Service: As a freelance recruiter, I keep my approach personal, flexible, and responsive. I adapt my support based on what you need; whether that is sourcing for a specialist legal role, managing an entire recruitment project, or helping candidates navigate their next move. I combine modern recruiter tools (talent mapping, Boolean search, ATS optimisation) with a human-centred approach that prioritises quality over quick wins.

Value You Can Trust: My clients appreciate my communication style, my ability to work across time zones and cultures, and my commitment to doing things the right way. My candidates value the transparency, preparation, and genuine care I bring to the process. I see recruitment as a partnership, one where both sides should feel informed, supported, and confident.

If you are looking for a legal Recruiter who offers strategic insight, international experience, and a thoughtful, people-first approach, I would be delighted to lead your candidate search.
