Hi Toby, I just wanted to inform you that your colleague Connor Franks has been absolutely brilliant in his support and assistance in my job search from the outset. Connor first contacted me over three weeks ago and we had a discussion in relation to my career aspirations and in particular, in relation to the type of job I was looking for. He then sent an email informing me about three law firms with suitable vacancies. He gave me time and opportunity to look into these firms and asked me whether I would be happy for my CV to be forwarded to them. Following my confirmation that I was happy for my CV to be forwarded, Connor has been absolutely brilliant in managing to arrange interviews with two out of the three recommended firms. He has kept me regularly updated and has been very efficient in facilitating interview arrangements. He also forwarded to me useful information about the firms, provided me with job descriptions and very useful hints and tips in relation to the interviews. I was very impressed with Connor’s general approach, efficiency, genuine desire to help and his sincerity throughout this process. He has been extremely approachable and has answered every single one of my emails without fail and a speedy manner. In particular on the day of my interviews, Friday 15th November, he was in contact with me throughout the day and gave me a lot of time and attention to fully support me in relation to the interviews. In particular, he spoke to me at length outside working hours on a Friday evening which is a reflection of his genuiness and sincere desire to assist. I was very fortunate to secure a very promising position in a specialist area of law, thanks to Connor’s efforts and kind assistance. Connor’s level of service has been excellent throughout and he is a credit to your organisation. I think he is an absolute star and I feel fortunate to have been one of the candidates that Connor supported in securing a position. I hope you will take the above into consideration and will recognise Connor’s significant contribution to allowing me to secure a position. I hope you will reward Connor suitably as he deserves recognition and reward. I will also personally come to your office to thank him for all his kind assistance with a small gift, which is the least I can do. Kind regards, AM November 2019
AM, North West

Kerry R, Scotland
Having been in touch with a few different recruitment agencies, I have to say that Jemma Williamson from QED Legal Recruitment stood out from the rest. She understood completely the need for me to move closer to home after commuting to London daily for 16 months and was very supportive in helping me to achieve that goal. She always kept me updated, presented exciting opportunities and gave me plenty of information which helped me to prepare for interviews. The whole process was very quick and within a couple of hours of my interview, I had a job offer. I would very highly recommend Jemma when searching for a new job in the legal sector! October 2019
S McKain, East Midlands
Thank you so much to QED Legal for securing me an interview with the firm that I really wanted the opportunity to work for.

Jemma Williamson was excellent throughout. Kind regards Christine September 2019
Christine B, East Midlands

Gemma W, South West
Within the space of a fortnight Gemma Rush at QED Legal in Manchester helped me find a new job in November/December 2018 with MR which I’m now thoroughly enjoying!

I just wanted to say a few lines having about my experience of using QED Legal Recruitment and in particular, Tom Cooke.

Piers W, South West
When looking for a new position, I was quite limited with regard to the options I could consider. Greg listened carefully to my wishes, and worked very pro-actively to find for me the position that I eventually accepted. He seems to work tirelessly and pro-actively for his recruiter clients likewise. I was very grateful and would highly recommend him. June 2019
Ann-Marie D, East Midlands
Hi Deborah, I’d just like to say a massive thank you for your help in finding a new job. I had e-mailed my CV to a few agencies prior to you and some of them hadn’t even replied. As soon as I sent it to you I had a response e-mail practically immediately and also a follow up phone call. Never did I think I’d have an interview and a job offer within just over a week! Your guidance throughout this whole process has been amazing. You were always on the ball attending to me and calming my nerves together with giving interview and salary advice etc when needed. You have made a very unsettling time less worrying for me and I can’t thank you enough. You have went above and beyond. Hopefully I won’t have to use your services for a long while now but I’ll certainly be recommending you to everyone. Thank you so much again. Kindest regards, Siobhan
Siobhan M, Scotland
Hi Kieran, just a quick message to say a huge thank you for your assistance in finding this job for me! My first day went very smoothly and I am now back for my second day!

Karolina U, South West
Good afternoon, I have recently worked with Connor Franks on my employment search and subsequent appointment and wished to write a testimonial as to the exceptional service provided by Connor. From first contact, through to placement Connor worked tirelessly and diligently to find me the perfect position. His communication and attitude was a breath of fresh air. He maintained a degree of support and contact throughout the process which was second to none. I have worked in the legal industry for many years and have dealt with recruitment agents as both an employer and a candidate seeking employment, I have no hesitation in saying that Connor was the best agent I have ever dealt with. Connor is an asset to your firm, one I shall recommend going forwards, and indeed I already have. I was so impressed by his professionalism and hard work that I felt compelled to write to you with this feedback. Connor is unique in that as a candidate, he treated me as an individual and took onboard my concerns/needs. This is so refreshing and unusual in today’s market. I shall not hesitate to contact Connor in future if I need placement, and further if I am myself recruiting for staff. I have been most impressed with his service and that of QED. June 2019
Adele G, North West
Greg was a great help throughout the process and a real pleasure to deal with. He knew a lot about the firms I was interested in but didn’t try to push me in any particular direction. I will miss our chats! Partner – May 2019
Andrew H, East Midlands
Deborah (Collier) went above and beyond as my recruitment consultant by working tirelessly to get the best position/package suited to my experience and needs. She listened and delivered. First class in every way. Thanks. Paul May 2019
Paul F, Scotland
Jemma has acted for me twice. On the first occasion she sought out 2 fantastic opportunities for me that I simply wouldn’t have found myself. On the second occasion, Jemma had an interview lined up for me within 24 hours of contact. Jemma listened to my requirements and acted quickly. I simply can’t recommend her enough. She knows the legal market better than any other recruitment agent I have met. May 2019
Lisa F, East Midlands
Yes Neil, all going very well, thank you for checking in. In actual fact it is hands down my favourite job ever, very interesting and everything I’d hoped it would be.

Kate M, Scotland
Extremely impressed with the service I have received from Graham Rawlinson at QED. I have had great support throughout the whole process of securing a Child Law paralegal role.

Zoe C, Yorkshire
I would highly recommend Matt based on his professionalism and support throughout the recruitment process.

Harry T, Hong Kong
Hi Deborah, I would like to take this time to thank you for the excellent and efficient service you provided me in November 2018. I had not intended on going through a recruitment agent whilst seeking a new career opportunity, however you made the process very straight forward and I trusted you wanted to find something that would suit my needs. You were extremely approachable and explained each stage in a clear and concise manner. I am now settling in well at my new firm and would have not found this opportunity if it was not for your support and advice. Thanks again, I will highly recommend you to anyone seeking employment in this industry. Kind regards Ann January 2019
Ann D, Scotland
I absolutely love to work there. Interesting projects, wonderful bosses and super nice colleagues. I am doing similar work as back in Hong Kong (which I’m pretty good at it and feel comfortable with), but also learning new Luxembourg funds knowledge. Thanks for this opportunity! January 2019
Miao W, Luxembourg
I wanted to thank Sarah for her work in securing me the clinical negligence post in Cardiff in January 2019. After 34 years in PI and clinical negligence, it was a hell of a shock to be made redundant by my last firm after 18 years there. I seriously considered turning my back on the entire legal world, but Sarah found me two high-quality job offers within a matter of weeks and had them vying for my services- all of which did wonders for my confidence. Now I am setting up a fledgling clinical negligence dept myself and enjoying the challenge. January 2019
Mike C, Wales
Efficiency, professionalism and effectiveness at its best! One call is all it took. Within minutes I received a return call from Deborah Collier. I explained my circumstances and what I was looking for and within one week she had several roles on the table for me. She organised an interview for a great new job at the best firm of solicitors and estate agents in the Borders. Liaised with me, ensuring I was confident and comfortable with the process. There was no nonsense, no exaggerating – just friendly, professional, effective communication that led me to this wonderful job. It has truly changed my work/life balance and ensured that I continue to be challenged and above all – happy! Deborah and I have kept in touch, she hasn’t forgotten me and checks to ensure I am happy in my new role. I have referred a few friends to her and will continue to do so. What a credit you are to your firm and to your industry Deborah! Thanks a million. January 2019

Matthew (Whitehead) has literally single-handedly landed me back in legal practice and has switched my career path to the right direction. He is super professional and patient, and he makes sure every detail is communicated to all stakeholders with sufficient clarity. His constant attention to the active application and prompt responses to all enquiries really expedite the whole process. His proactive approach in exploring every possible route for his clients is extremely helpful and will open all potential doors for your career progression. I will have to exhaust all praising words if I am to offer a comprehensive description of the high quality of Matthew’s work. Lucky you if your application is with the assistance of Matthew, as you are reassured of great connections and opportunities, hugely benefiting from his resourceful tactics. Therefore, I will highly recommend Matthew as the most ideal legal recruitment agent to anyone who is ready to embrace a brighter legal career! January 2019

Graham (Rawlinson) was wonderfully helpful throughout the process of securing my new employment and it is a service I would highly recommend to anyone. January 2019
Jake B, Yorkshire
Sarah was extremely supportive and helpful. As a senior solicitor facing redundancy for the first time in my career and not having been required to be interviewed formally for a number of years it was a huge benefit to have her professional and efficient support. As a partner recruiting I would not have hesitated in contacting her for recommendations. December 2018
Angelina R, Wales
Garry and Kieran have supported me in my job search and taken the time to fully understand and appreciate my needs and requirements within my next job. They have been patient when I have been unable to respond immediately and have always kept me in the loop with any updates from my prospective firm. I had previously used Garry and would definitely recommend him and Kieran to anyone who is considering a job or career change. Unlike many other recruiters I know, they are not pushy, nor do they force you into interviews if you are unsure. I could not have asked for two better recruiters! I hope you both have a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year! Kind regards Sophie December 2018
Sophie F, South West
I would recommend Jemma at QED as she knew about the vacancy before any other recruitment firm. Jemma was lovely and friendly with excellent knowledge of the firm I was applying to and was always a pleasure to speak to and email. November 2018
Ruth J, East Midlands
Morning Dawn – Just in case I wasn’t clear on the phone yesterday, I have emailed confirmation that I will be accepting the offer. I await the offer letter by post but they said email confirmation would be fine. Please let me take this opportunity to thank you very much for all your hard work over the last few weeks in making this happen. This position is a really significant step for me in my career and I thank you for helping me achieve it. Kind regards, Catherine
Catherine G, Manchester
I’d never thought to use a recruitment agent until a friend recommended Jemma from QED to me, and I’m glad that she did. Jemma took so much of the stress and hassle out of looking for a new job; I didn’t have to spend my evenings scouring websites and sending out my CV as she did that for me. She also liaised with both parties to arrange the interviews, gave me interview advice beforehand, and feedback from the firm afterwards. I am really pleased with my new position and I am very grateful to Jemma for all of her help in getting me there. November 2018
Stephanie C, Yorkshire
I was approached by Graham in relation to a role which fitted-in with my requirements and answered a lot of the issues I had absolutely. From start to finish, he was very professional and knew exactly what I was talking about finding time to answer or research and of the issues I raised with him. The key differentiator, I found, with Graham was his “ownership” of the whole process and his ability to communicate on a regular basis, always keeping me up to speed. He is a very capable pair of hands and has a “can do” attitude in an industry which so often commoditises candidates. I would certainly recommend him to anyone wanting to know what is out there and how best to reach a position which fits with their real needs. Partner – Leeds October 2018
Richard A, Yorkshire
Jemma was professional, helpful & patient when negotiating a new position for me. Thanks for all your work. Anna October 2018
Anna B, East Midlands
Dear Sirs – I would like to send my gratitude to QED Legal, in particular Tom Cooke, for the assistance in finding me my current Paralegal Position at my firm. I was contacted by Tom a few months back after he found my CV on a legal site. Tom was instrumental in helping me obtain the position. He was encouraging and engaging and provided thoughtful constructive criticism when necessary. Tom helped coach me for my interview and truly helped build my confidence for both of my interviews, always calling me afterwards to reassure me and ask about how things had gone, as well as asking for my opinion about the interview questions and interviewers themselves. He has such an enormous heart and inordinate amount of legal knowledge, and is unquestionably an extremely valuable asset to QED Legal. Therefore, I would unreservedly recommend friends and colleagues to Tom in the future for any assistance in pursuing a new position or even those colleagues looking for a change. My sincerest apologies for not sending this earlier, however, the new job has kept me busy. I wanted to ensure that Tom receives the praise he deserves, as often we are all too happy to write negative reviews and complain rather than ensuring others know we are grateful for such excellent work and how much we appreciate their efforts. Thank you for your time. Kind regards Louisa
Louisa B, Greater London
Hi Deb – Just a wee message to thank you for all your help with regard to my obtaining my new post with my new firm. I found you very helpful throughout the whole process, totally professional and enthusiastic. It was a joy to work with you during this process and I would highly recommend you to anyone looking to find a new position. Again, many thanks Lesley October 2018
Lesley H, Scotland
Graham (Rawlinson) took the time to understand my key drivers for the move and was responsive, attentive and receptive in building a profile of employer that would fit the criteria. Refreshingly, Graham also has an air of impartiality and did not simply plug his client’s interests at the expense of my interests as a candidate. October 2018
James F, Yorkshire
Hi Graham (Jones), It’s the best (legal IT) job since sliced bread. What can I say? Thank you for introducing me to my new firm. I could really go on and on about it but I am sure you do not want an email 5 pages long. Three day weeks suit me so well. I get to see a lot more of my family and I am not poor. The job has challenges that I enjoy, and I get to help people that want helping. Thank you soooooo much! October 2018
Sarah R, Yorkshire
Deborah was very helpful and very pleasant every step of the way and I would not hesitate to contact her in the future. If I do seek employment in the future Deborah would be my first point of contact. October 2018
Susan F, Scotland
Nick Skelly recently helped me successfully secure a new position at a large firm in the centre of Manchester, handling mainly foreign accident claims . I highly recommend Nick, as he provided a great service the whole way through the process. He was always accessible, easy to reach and pleasant to talk to on the phone. He also always gave me the opportunity to properly explain and discuss anything I wanted to, without feeling he was in a hurry. I felt like my job search mattered to him . I was kept fully updated as to the latest position with my application, at all times. He helped arrange a prompt interview and gave me all the information I needed, to prepare for it thoroughly. When I had two possible opportunities, he handled the matter sensitively and without just putting his own interests first to enable me to proceed to make a considered and important decision . I am very grateful to Nick for his help. In my view, he is very good at what he does October 2018
Stephen J, Manchester
Hi Deborah, just wanted to say a big thank you for putting me forward for the Perth job, which has proved to be just right for me, and hopefully also for the firm. I have been very impressed by your care and attention , even well outwith normal office hours – including weekends and holidays. It was very reassuring to know you were always available for a discussion at any time. I am delighted with the terms and conditions negotiated with the firm. Many thanks. Kind regards Christine

Matt Whitehead knows very well about his candidates and he truly cares about the career development of them, which enable him to offer an outstanding and unparalleled professional service. I have known him for 4 years and during this period I have learnt a lot from him – not only about the market but also about career plan and progression. He is definitely the one that I could rely on at each very important moment of my career. October 2018

From day one Greg was supportive, efficient and always advised in my best interest. I am thankful to have found a new position that I am sure I will love and all thanks to QED Legal September 2018
Victoria B, East Anglia
I would definitely recommend Sarah. Sarah understood my circumstances and listened to what I wanted in an employer. She did not put forward any employers that did not fit my requirement despite knowing that I had been put on notice of redundancy. Within a week of speaking with Sarah I had attended two interviews, had two job offers and had accepted a position in a firm where I now work and couldn’t imagine working anywhere else. Thank you Sarah for your help! September 2018
Kirsty J, South Wales
I would like to thank you for all the effort you made on my behalf to find the perfect role for me. QED Legal were by far the best agency I dealt with during my search for a new role and that was mainly down to your assistance. You were always on hand and extremely efficient yet approachable. I would happily recommend you personally and the company as whole to any friends or colleagues and will most certainly be in touch if I am ever in need of a new job! Thanks for your assistance in my search. September 2018
Ffion Thomas, South Wales
Graham Rawlinson recently helped me find a new role. He was helpful from the start. He gave me advice on how to improve my CV and also gave me the confidence to see that I have a lot of transferable skills when considering a role in a new direction. Once an interview had been secured Graham was able to provide me with hints and tips to prepare me for the interview and assist me in researching the firm. I would highly recommend Graham to anyone looking for the next step in their career. His positive and helpful attitude was greatly appreciated in what can be a daunting time. August 2018
Keeley H, Yorkshire

Tom was so helpful and informative throughout the whole process. He was also realistic with goals and time scales, which is what differentiates QED from other recruiters. Thank you for getting me my new role! June 2018
Natalie F, Surrey
From the moment I was first contacted by Deborah Collier I knew she was not like other recruiters I had been in contact with previously. She was conscientious, personable and genuine. She was determined to find me a suitable role and went above and beyond exceeding my expectations. I had been out of work for a couple of months and thanks to Deborah’s efforts and sound advice (re: interview tips) I have now secured a dream role within a well respected legal firm. I cannot express how thankful I am to Deborah Collier and QED Legal LLP for all their help. June 2018
Joe M, Scotland
I would like to offer my thanks and appreciation for the great part that you (Graham Jones) played in securing my recent change of jobs. From the early days in the process when you matched me as a potential candidate through to subsequent interview and onto the job offer you gave very timely and accurate updates. It was always a pleasure to talk to you about the role and related matters. You came across as someone that really cares about matching the right person to the right opportunity. I would happily recommend you and your recruitment services. June 2018

Jim F, Yorkshire
Graham Jones went out of his way to actively seek new opportunities for me. Unlike other recruiters, Graham actually reads the content of the CV and tailors your skill set to the roles of his vast client base. I’m now several weeks into my new role and have already gained new skills and development. I can’t praise Graham enough, and would recommend him to any business or jobseekers for their recruitment and employment needs. I’ve not just found a job, but a vocation!”
Tom B, Yorkshire
I highly recommend Tom Cooke at QED Legal. He spent a lot of time and effort assisting me in securing two positions, guiding me through the process, providing tailored advice and assurances. He was honest and listened to what I wanted from a potential employer and found roles which met my criteria. Tom kept me updated at each stage, obtaining feedback after every stage of the recruitment process. Tom really did everything he could to help me secure a position that best suited me. May 2018
Marian M, Surrey
I would highly recommend QED Legal to anyone seeking employment in the legal sector. As a company they are professional , capable and personal. Tom Cooke was excellent throughout the process.

Can’t fault Deborah and the service she provided. She knew exactly which companies to match my skills with and provided extremely useful information about both the company I was visiting and, more importantly, the interviewer. This was invaluable as I knew exactly what I was heading in to when attending an interview which also helped with any nerves. Her pre and post interview calls were also a great bonus. I would have no hesitation in recommending Deborah to anyone looking for a career move. May 2018
Jane H, Scotland
Deborah was of great assistance in helping me find my new role. She was very attentive and focused on my skills and understood the type or role I was looking for. This meant she very quickly found me the ideal position in a very reputable firm which suits not only my skillset but also my personality and I am now very happy and settled in a great job with a great firm! From the initial submission of my CV, interview stage and my final placement in my new job, Deborah was more than helpful and a pleasure to work with. She really made finding a new job stress-free! May 2018

I had the good fortune to meet Graham Jones when I was looking to move on from a position I had held for almost 15 years. An opportunity came along, I applied and Graham led me through the recruitment process, I had the sense that I was being looked after and championed, and that gave me confidence to move forward. I consider myself very fortunate to have crossed paths with Graham, I was and am very grateful. April 2018
Imran H, North East
Graham Jones is the best agent I have had the good fortune to have worked with. He took the effort to see what I was all about and what I wanted from my next role, the first job he put me forward for was a perfect match and I have not looked back. Graham is personable, attentive and professional and I have recommended him to people a multiple occasions when looking for roles like mine. April 2018
James C, London (City)
I approached QED Legal after being put on notice of redundancy. Within a couple of hours of making an enquiry Sarah contacted me with a potential job role, within a week I had attended two interviews and had a job offer which I accepted. I cannot express how thankful I am for Sarah and QED Legal. They assisted me during a stressful period and in all honestly put my worries at ease. Sarah did not take advantage of my predicament by suggesting roles which were not best suited to me. Sarah listened to what I wanted from a potential employer and found roles which exactly met my criteria and salary expectations! Kind Regards,Kirsty April 2018
Kirsty J, Cardiff
I can highly recommend QED Legal, and in particular Simon Beresford-Webb as a recruitment consultant. He provided me with tailored advice on my career options and was extremely supportive in helping me find my next solicitor role. I was very impressed with Simon’s efficiency and professionalism in acting as my agent throughout the interview process, and I was kept informed at every stage through to accepting my job offer. I would have no hesitation in using QED Legal again and in recommending the agency to my friends who are looking for similar roles. Kind regards, Michelle April 2018

After being made redundant Deborah was absolutely amazing at helping me find my new job.

Sophie R, Wales
Greg has been extremely pro-active in finding me a great new position with a well regarded local firm. Returning to work after maternity leave in a new area could have been very daunting, especially when I wanted to return to work on a part-time basis to fit in around my family yet still have the opportunities to progress in my career. Greg took the time to fully understand what I was looking for in a new role and made the process very easy, taking away the stress of job-hunting in a new area, and by using his contacts and knowledge of local firms was able to secure several interviews for me within a week at a number of excellent firms in the region. As a result of his pro-active approach, which resulted in two job offers, I have been able to secure a new position which provides the opportunity to continue to develop my career with a leading regional firm whilst maintaining a work-life balance which fits in with my priorities and young family. September 2017
Stephanie C, East Anglia

Iain K, Scotland
I am regularly contacted by legal recruitment consultants working for the “usual suspects” who promise the world but never hear from them again; there is nothing worse in my opinion. I would just like to make you aware of the determination and hard work that Sarah put in, not only to ensure I was successful for the role but for the regular contact and follow up correspondence she provided, she went over and above and dealing with her was an absolute pleasure and in my view she is an asset to your company. July 2017

Neil is an extremely efficient and effective recruitment agent who kept me informed and supported throughout the process of my employment search.

Throughout the whole process I could not have asked for anyone more supportive and attentive as Sophia. I knew what was going on at all times and even if there was no news she would call to let me know that was the case. Sophia genuinely had my best interests in mind and that was demonstrated through her professionalism and advice given. I will recommend her to anyone who is seeking new employment as she made the process so stress free and simple. April 2017

Sophia, I wanted to take this opportunity of saying a massive ‘thank you’ for your excellent work on my behalf. It was very reassuring knowing that you were always on to it for me. You always did what you said you would do by way of letting me know how things were going even if there wasn’t anything much happening. The search for employment is always tough and stressful, and the periods of silence between applications, interviews, etc., are really hard but you alleviated much of that. I will certainly recommend you to anyone I know who might be looking in your area. Kind regards and many thanks again, Aled March 2017
Aled L, Berkshire
My experience of working with Sophia was excellent throughout and I would recommend her very highly. It made a real difference that she clearly has a very strong relationship with her clients and that she takes the time to get to know you to make sure you will be a good fit for each other. She is a pleasure to work with and I was delighted to land my current role with a fantastic firm through her help. March 2017
Gareth H, Wiltshire
Greg – thanks again for all your help with the job search. I really appreciated the time you gave me during the process and how you continually kept me updated. I will be continuing to recommend your help – I can honestly say you are one of the best agents I have worked with. March 2017
Rachel D, East Anglia
Graham Jones was great at securing me a role as an IT Support Technician. He was attentive, helpful and patient with the process. I am very grateful for his perseverance and expertise in finding me a role that suited my circumstances. He was assisting me throughout the whole process, which gave me confidence and tranquillity. Thank you for your help. March 2017
Gio G, London
Graham Jones was friendly and very talented in informing me in what the next steps would be in recruitment, he approached me with the role in IT I have been looking for, he was patient and understanding knowing my working hours were 40 per week. He would go out of his way for me, which is the part I liked the most, he knew I wanted the job a lot and gave many tips for the interview and pushed me to the position I’m in now. Thanks a lot Graham. March 2017
Sam G, Cardiff
Graham Jones handled my search for a new role with a combination of both professionalism and approach-ability. I felt he was interested and always available to facilitate the process. He has also maintained his contact over the ensuing months to see if I am still happy in the new position; all in all I would say the service he provides is exemplary. March 2017
John G, London
Graham Jones was professional, thorough and detail oriented and kept me informed throughout the recruitment and negotiation process. He struck the right balance between persistence and patience, and in my view managed to facilitate the best deal for both my new employer and myself.

Sean C, Surrey
Amelia was a pleasure to deal with and really took the time to find out about me and what I was looking for. She always kept me updated about roles I may be interested in and was very supportive. She is very professional and always called when she said she would to fit around my availability. I would not fail to recommend her and am very grateful to her for her hard work. March 2017
Katie W, Surrey
I can’t rate Neil Campbell highly enough. He understood immediately what I was looking for and was supportive in every aspect of the application process. From regularly checking-in to see how I was getting on, to always being on hand to deal with questions I had, I really felt Neil went above and beyond in the support and guidance he gave. March 2017

Peter S, East Anglia

She kept me updated with any applications and promptly dealt with any queries raised. I have no hesitation in recommending her services. March 2017
Lalita K, Kent
I found Greg incredibly supportive during which was an anxious time for me since I hadn’t changed job for 12 years. Greg was professional but personable which made him very approachable. I felt Greg was with me every step of the way which really helped over times of uncertainty. I’d certainly look to Greg to place me in the future should I wish to change jobs again! Many thanks for your help!
Emma H, East Anglia
Amelia – I am absolutely grateful for the way you dealt with my enquiry. You were quick and efficient. I especially appreciate that manner in which you responded promptly to all my enquiries! This certainly helped in achieving a quick turnaround. For that (and my new job) I say thank you. February 2017
Sheila M, Surrey
Good morning Greg. My new role is going well. A lovely team and great working environment. I would be more than happy to recommend QED to other people. A great service and friendly staff. Kind regards Mathew February 2017
Mathew J, East Anglia
Amelia was really helpful in advising me how setting my CV in a different way would highlight my experience to potential employers. Although I originally applied for a role with a different firm, after taking time to listen to my preferences, Amelia arranged an interview at an alternative firm and I was offered the job. It was a very pleasant experience that employment agency took time to find out more about me and found the right fit for me that resulted in me getting the interview at the right firm and getting the job offer. Thank you again for placing me in a role that I wanted and personal touch. February 2017
Maz K, Surrey
Amelia was really helpful from initial contact and took the time to listen to my objectives for my new role. I am pleased to be with my current firm going on six months now. The position, firm and culture tick all of my boxes and I believe this is owing to Amelia finding out about me and really taking the time to consider an appropriate role. This made for a very smooth transition. Many thanks to Amelia. February 2017
Kerri R, Kent
Hi Nick – My new role has been a breath of fresh air and I am thoroughly enjoying my new “home”. Thanks again for all your help in me achieving this goal. Kind regards Richard
Richard H, Manchester
Hi Neil, Thank you so much for brokering this deal for me. I genuinely appreciate your efforts on my behalf in negotiating a package that is agreeable. I think that this really will be a good fit and am very excited about this new opportunity. Your support throughout the interview process has been great and you’ve always contacted me very quickly with updates and been available whenever I have needed something from you. I have never utilised the services of a recruiter before but would recommend you to friends and colleagues. I will let you know a start date when we have agreed it and will drop you a line to let you know how I’m settling in. Once again, many thanks – I’m very grateful for the vigour with which you advanced my cause. February 2017
Kim C, Scotland
Morning Matt – Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you. I have settled in well at my new firm and I wanted to thank you for your help. I think I got in touch with you on a Wednesday, had an interview by Thursday and a job offer by Friday!! Amazing! If you had some rating buttons it would be a 10/10! 🙂 Have a lovely day! February 2017
Arlie A, Birmingham
Having uploaded my CV due to my job coming to an end, I was not expecting to have anyone act on it so proactively, that is until Greg came upon it. I have dealt with many agencies in the past who have promised to find my ideal job and little has come of it but with Greg at QED things were different. Having contacted me to advise that he had a legal company who I may be interested in having my details put forward for he was very forthcoming with the name of the firm which turned out to be a company I had previously worked for and been made redundant. Greg made me feel very worthwhile, that my skills were important and that there would be a suitable job match for me. He was extremely proactive all the way, a very nice, warm individual I found easy to talk to and who knew the legal background and his client’s needs well. I am so pleased with the way things have turned out and the fact that I will be starting a new position at the beginning of April which has taken a lot of pressure off me. I would definitely recommend Greg to any people searching for their next job in the legal market as I am a 100% satisfied individual. Thanks. Anita February 2016
Anita W, East Anglia
Matt, you have helped me to understand the legal market in a frank but positive way, which has enabled me to focus my objectives and search proactively. You have from the outset been approachable. Your understanding of the legal profession in a practical way has been reassuring and has enabled us to form a honest and open working relationship, which I feel has benefited me and my new employer; because we all know so much more about each other than the bare details in a cv, as is often the case. I feel both sides are far more comfortable as a result of your approach. You have matched me with what I feel will be the right firm and role for me. I have been kept up to date regularly and would not hesitate to recommend you to any colleagues or firm. January 2017
Amanda S, West Midlands
I engaged Amelia’s services upon my arrival in London from New Zealand. I found her very engaging and genuinely interested in placing me in a suitable role. She took the time to listen to what I want to achieve from a work place and worked hard as my advocate in obtaining a role for me that meets those requirements. I would recommend Amelia to anyone in a similar position to me. January 2017
Rowan B, London
I feel very fortunate to have crossed paths with David Roddy. I initially contacted him about a role I had seen advertised online. When I called him, David took the time to explain about that role but also to get to know a bit about me and to work out what I was looking for in a role, which immediately put me at ease. He is very personable and is quick to establish a rapport with you – and he was always on hand if I needed to talk about anything, without ever being pushy. In the end, I have accepted a role which I would not have heard of other than through David, so he has been invaluable to me! January 2017
Katie M, North East
Hi Nick, Everything is going great, loving my job and making progress. Hope you are well and best wishes for the New Year. Kind regards, Monica
Monica T, North West
Amelia is very professional and friendly and really helped me in securing my new position. She listened to my concerns and I felt that she really took on board what I was looking for. I would recommend to anyone looking to move jobs to contact her. December 2016
Mark K, Kent
Many thanks Graham, I couldn’t thank you enough! You have been very clear and approachable since I applied and you have been very honest too. I like how you check up on progress and follow up on your word. If I ever need another job again I will definitely be coming back to you! November 2016
Zeinab M, West Yorkshire
I used Greg at QED Legal, after he contacted me via LinkedIn in relation to some jobs that he thought I might be interested in. I sent in my CV which Greg then forwarded onto the Company, within a day Greg had sorted me an interview out, it was done so quickly and professionally, and I was always kept in the loop. I got the job and Greg was great in negotiating my pay and Contract – I couldn’t fault him! Overall I found QED Legal to be a fantastic recruiter, and I would not hesitate to tell my colleagues to use them!
Ami H, East Anglia
Greg at QED Legal LLP has been a pleasure to deal with – proactive, helpful and professional. November 2016
Anne K, East Anglia

Michaela L, London
David Roddy was approachable, friendly and always keen to answer queries. He was a pleasure to work with and I would thoroughly recommend him. October 2016
Paulina H, North East
I have been very impressed with the service that I received from QED, particularly since Kim became involved. Contacting me to follow up on the status of my job search, following the departure of your colleague, and taking the time to find out about the type of role which would be of most interest to me. It is as a result of Kim’s knowledge of QED’s clients as well as Kim’s networking skills that she successfully matched my skills with a firm that was looking for individuals, with my background and experience, to expand their business. Kim was so helpful during the whole process, keeping me well informed at all times. Also when she was unavailable her colleagues, who were appropriately informed, stepped in providing me with a seamless service throughout. I also really appreciate her understanding and way she handled my request to allow me sufficient time to arrive at my decision. I now have an exciting new role with a firm that I would not have known about had it not been for Kim and QED’s involvement. Thank you so much. I would not hesitate to recommend QED to any one requiring these services. October 2016
Kate S, London
Graham, I just wanted to thank you for securing me the position at my new firm. I really enjoy it and I’m so glad I’m here, hopefully there’s room to progress. Thanks again for all your hard work. October 2016
Rebecca B, Yorkshire
Graham at QED has been great in helping me secure employment. He has been very supportive in advising what will be required through each interview stage and kept in communication with me when necessary so I never felt I was dealing with my job search alone. I would definitely recommend the services of QED to anyone looking for employment in the legal sector, and would not hesitate to use them again myself should the need arise in the future October 2016
Dawn P, Yorkshire
This was my first experience of dealing with a recruitment agency and I was extremely satisfied with the results. Graham is highly professional and it was clear from the start that he really knows the market. He found me a suitable role within one day of our initial conversation and both he and his colleague, Toby, kept me fully informed throughout and responded to my questions efficiently. I would definitely use QED Legal again and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking a legal role. October 2016
Caroline T, Yorkshire
QED helped me to find new employment. David Roddy was assigned to look after me. He was incredibly friendly and helpful and arranged everything for me. He even made contact with the interviewers when I was running late to smooth things over. He pushed for feedback and a response and I’m really grateful for his help. October 2016
Pari S, East Midlands
Neil was invaluable to me when I was looking for a new role – very supportive and always available at a moment’s notice. He has a unique insight into the legal scene in Scotland, which placed me at an advantage and paved the way for me to secure the right job at the right time. I would highly recommend Neil to anyone looking for a new position in the legal profession. Best wishes, Rhona September 2016
Rhona M, Scotland
After taking a short career break and living abroad for 18 months, I began speaking to Neil Campbell of QED Legal Recruitment about a return to practice in Scotland recently. To say that things moved quickly is an understatement! … To put things in perspective, I got back into the country on the Saturday and by the Tuesday I found myself with a job in an exciting Edinburgh firm! Neil listened to what I was looking for and found a good match for me and for my new employers. I would highly recommend QED Legal Recruitment to anyone considering a move within the profession. Very reliable with good connections- I couldn’t be happier. Thank you very much! September 2016
Mairi K, Scotland
Greg Whitaker is a true credit to QED. Greg contacted me when a position became available one year after first being given my CV. I have now worked with Greg twice and can honestly say he is amazing. In 2015 Greg contacted me and I went for an interview with a legal firm Unfortunately I did not get this position but over one year later another vacancy became available and Greg remembered me. He called me, talked to me about the vacancy and I was lucky enough this time to secure the position. I feel it amazing that after over a year Greg not only remembered me, but called me to see if I was interested in being put forward. After one year people would think “oh she will have a job I will not bother contacting her” but not Greg on the phone immediately and the rest is history. Greg you are true ambassador for this company and I would most certainly recommend you to any of my friends who are looking for a role. August 2016
Debbie C, Cambridgeshire
Sophia Carr has been exceptionally supportive and professional, always within reach and using her best endeavours to help me find and secure the right job, very pleased with her service August 2016
Greg D, Berkshire
Abi and QED legal have been extremely professional, friendly and fast moving throughout my experience with them. Abi regularly kept me updated on jobs and applications she made on my behalf and with her friendly and positive attitude she made me feel extremely comfortable and relaxed about finding a new job. She managed to secure me an interview in less than a day and called me before and after to provide support. I secured a job very quickly and was only out of work for two days in total! I would definitely recommend Abi and QED legal as a company! August 2016
Kerry J, Sussex
Greg has assisted me recently in finding a new role and I am happy to recommend him to other people looking for a new position in the legal industry. I have been in touch with other recruitment agents who, despite being clear about the position/location I was interested in, have contacted me with jobs that are not suitable. Greg was a breath of fresh air, he listened to my requirements and contacted me with a couple of different options and I was fortunate enough to get offered both jobs that Greg put me forward for! He’s always been available at the end of the phone and has been great at offering impartial advice when I needed to make a decision between the 2 firms. Thanks for your help Greg! August 2016
Samantha D, Northamptonshire
Hi Greg – Thanks for this. I’m really excited so hopefully it will all go well! Thank you for all your help. You have been so approachable and have always got back to me promptly which made me feel continuously in the loop. I shall let you know how it goes next week Kind regards Justine August 2016

I can’t praise Neil highly enough. He made what could have been a stressful and nerve-wracking experience much more calm and painless than I imagined and gave practical, honest feedback and advice as required. June 2016
Shona G, Scotland
Graham is – with a shadow of a doubt – the most professional, efficient, and reliable recruitment agent I have ever dealt with. He understood my requirements and found potential roles for me that satisfied all the criteria I had set out for him. In fact, he understood my career trajectory better than myself as he found me a role in an area that I had not considered, but that fitted me perfectly. I would not hesitate to recommend Graham to anyone searching for a legal role in Yorkshire June 2016
Martina W, West Yorkshire
My name is Daniel Russell and I am Managing Director of Carlsons solicitors. I cannot praise Jason highly enough for his recruitment services during my recent search for a senior property solicitor.

Well done Jason and once again a massive “thank you”! June 2016
Daniel R, London
Very much appreciated Jason’s insights into the insurance market. Insurance Partner – June 2016

Hayley E, Manchester
I contacted QED after seeing their name against a number of posts I was interested in. By this point I already was in contact with various recruiters from other agencies however I hadn’t had much luck. Neil stood out as he always made time for me – which was what I really needed whilst trying to stay on top of my traineeship. Especially important was his ability to listen, he didn’t hassle me with things he knew wouldn’t interest me and worked hard to understand and get what I really wanted. With his help I secured the dream position for me and I will always be grateful for his assistance in a stressful busy time. June 2016
Ben S, Scotland
I have been incredibly happy with the assistance you have provided Kim, you have been extremely professional and supportive.

Mandip R, Essex
Hi Toby, I just wanted to praise Nick, he has gone over and beyond his role to secure me a job and is an asset to your company always keeping me posted and up to date. I will definitely be recommending other lawyers to QED in the future who are looking for a new job. Thank you! June 2016
Malika I, North West
As a senior English (corporate) solicitor planning a move into the Edinburgh legal market I decided that I needed the help of a well connected local agent. I contacted Neil after doing some research on the Internet and his service was just what I had wanted. I found a great opportunity which is a perfect fit for me. June 2016
Chris G, Scotland
Greg – Just want to say….thank you!! From the day I applied for a job advertised by QED you called me within 20 minutes and were very proactive from that moment. You attentively asked me my circumstances and worked with them and advised me. Not only did you get me a fantastic job that I am really enjoying, you also made my move down to Great Yarmouth from Halifax very smooth and stress free as I didn’t need to worry about not having a job or when my next pay cheque was coming! You are very friendly and lovely to communicate with. Hopefully I will not leave this job, but I recommend you highly to anyone now and in the future. Thank you. June 2016
Afreen M, East Anglia
Besides being a friendly voice to have a chat to before and after interviews, the service that Matt provided was excellent throughout the whole recruitment process. I received detailed information about my upcoming interviews well in advance. This included information about the job specifications, the people I would be meeting, the location of the interview, and information about the firm generally – everything you could possibly need! I also found Matt to be very reachable and personable, and I was comfortable asking any questions I had. I felt confident and prepared going into my interviews and that is in large part due to the assistance provided by Matt. The job I was put forward for matched my experience well and I was very happy to accept the employment offer I received. June 2016

I approached Neil at QED regarding an advertised vacancy, as I was looking to move away from my then-current role. The service from Neil was excellent. He moved matters on with a minimum of fuss, always responded to queries promptly and efficiently, and ultimately played a key part in helping me to secure the advertised role. June 2016
Fraser, Scotland
Matt has been such a fantastic help to me in securing my role. He has a brilliant personality, very friendly yet professional. He seemed to genuinely care about my interests and about getting me this role. He was informative from the outset and provided with me with lots of beneficial information regarding the role. He also sent me lots of interview tips and called me the day before my interview to go through possible interview questions and advice. I cannot explain how valuable his help was to me! I was very nervous prior to my interview and he completely boosted my confidence by providing me with such detailed advice and tips. Matt has done a fantastic job in negotiating a brilliant salary which was way more than I expected I would get. He was very easy to talk to throughout the whole process and I am very grateful for all his help. He is an asset to QED Legal June 2016
Lauren S, West Midlands
Kim is a fantastic professional who vowed 2 years ago when we first connected that she will place me in a firm and lo and behold she has done just that. We connected in 2014 when I was looking to move on from my previous firm and it did not work out at the time, however 2 years later a fantastic opportunity came up that I could not resist and Kim was at the forefront of making this happen. She is someone who is extremely professional, courteous will always give you the time of day and was a fantastic conduit between me and my prospective new employers. She did a great job and continues to do a great job and cannot recommend her enough to others. May 2016

Hi Nick, It is wonderful news about my new job! I can’t believe it’s happened so quickly. The interview really clarified that the job is exactly what I’m looking for. I feel very fortunate. I really appreciate your hard work in setting everything up. It’s a weight off my shoulders knowing I have a great firm to go to in September. Many thanks May 2016
Abbie P, Shropshire
I have worked with Jason on a number of assignments over the last couple of years and I have always been impressed with his level of service and professionalism. When looking for a recruiter I believe it is vital that they not only understand your business but also the type of person you are looking for to fill a particular role within your organisation. Jason always listens, takes on board what I’m looking for and advises me as to whether my request is realistic. He will ask questions if clarity is required and confirm his understanding before going to market. He will only suggest candidates that meet the brief, saving me significant amounts of time. His specialist knowledge of the legal employment market is key and another reason why I am happy to recommend him May 2016
Charles P, London
Amelia is amazing! She recommended me for a job and fought my corner into getting me a position in a Law Firm. She was always available whenever I needed her.

Jemma was really kind and genuinely cared about whether I got the job. It was really down to her that I got called for the job and put my legal career firmly on track! April 2016
Phoebe T, East Midlands
Thanks Nick. Yes. I am settling in well. Everything is very positive here and I have brought about £20,000 worth of work with me so I hope this will make a difference! Everyone here is very friendly and helpful. Thanks again for your help April 2016
Sue B, Cumbria
I was referred to QED by a previous colleague who had been found her position through them. I was passed to the care of David who covered the north East. I had tried for sometime to secure a position. I was trying to relocate from the South East and had not been able to even secure an interview in the North east. Too qualified for junior positions and without a following or local connections I was stranded in professional limbo. David was able to use local contacts and was able to secure me an opportunity to meet with an excellent firm. He negotiated a position. I found David to be proactive and positive. April 2016
Trevor G, North East
Hi Matt, Thank you very much indeed for calling me last night to let me know about the job offer at my new firm! It’s been a pleasure for me working with you and I’m truly grateful.Thank you very much for all your help and best regards, Louise April 2016

As a rapidly expanding law firm with multiple disciplines demonstrating outstanding growth we need to know that we can rely upon the recruitment consultants we work with to ensure that we find the right candidates. Both Abi and Garry have always been excellent to deal with, are open with us and their candidates so no one ever gets the wrong impression. Negotiation with them is painless and allows us all to make quick decisions that are relayed to their candidates and us so matter are never protracted. Like ourselves they are down to earth and accessible as a firm and as individuals. April 2016
Paul Sams- Partner Eric Robinson Solicitors, Hampshire
Abi has been greatly supportive, professional and efficient in processing my application, handling my interviews in a smooth fashion and securing my new job. On all levels she has retained a great amount of contact and care and it has been a delight to have her represent me. I highly recommend her as an agent and the rest of the professional team at QED Legal. April 2016
Daniel P, West Sussex
I was lucky enough to have Jason assist me with a recent placement. Having considered a few positions I was still looking for the right opportunity when Jason contacted me. He immediately transformed my search adding real momentum. Jason explained that he would contact prominent firms in my field, whether they were advertising or not and discuss whether there were any opportunities for me within those organisations. Very quickly he came back to me with some options that I would never have found by myself and frankly would not have been found by any other consultants, because they were created by Jason. Ultimately one of these options became a fantastic move for me. Jason stayed in constant contact throughout the whole process and his positive attitude and impeccable professionalism were a delight to deal with. I can say with absolute certainty that my new firm and I would never have found each other without Jason’s remarkable assistance. I recommend him unreservedly. Thank you Jason. April 2016
Carl N, London
I found Jemma most efficient and tenacious in her search for a new position for me. Within a week she had secured 4 interviews and I am now really looking forward to starting a new position. Unlike some agencies, Jemma listened to my requirements and met the brief all the way. Thanks Jemma – you were brilliant! April 2016
Catherine W, East Midlands
Very happy with Greg and the team at QED, the process was quick, easy and I was supported the whole way through. Would definitely recommend QED to a friend. April 2016
Georgie S, East Anglia
I started looking for a new position recently and was contacted by Abi at QED recruitment. I found Abi a pleasure to deal with, she was sympathetic to my needs and very quickly (within a couple of days) found me a suitable position for which I was successful. Abi made the whole (potentially stressful) process of finding a new job easy, straightforward and painless. Unlike some recruitment consultants Abi was not pushy, she understood my requirements and I would thoroughly recommend April 2016
Anne D, Sussex
Jemma helped my land my first professional job in 2013 and I can safely say she is the best at what she does! Moving on 3 years and Jemma has continued to help me grow professionally and always landed me in roles that have been beneficial to me. She listens and also advises and always has time for you, even when you don’t reply to her (sorry Jem!). Thank you for being my first point of call and always having time for me. I cannot recommend you enough! Thank You April 2016
Raj P, West Midlands
I couldn’t have been more pleased with the professional and friendly service from Kim. She took the time in length to talk about the position, she answered any questions I had and secured an interview quickly, which resulted in a job offer I accepted. Throughout the entire process she kept me updated and in the loop. I’ve now been in my role nearly 7 months and it couldn’t have been a better fit, all down to Kim putting me forward for a role that was exactly what I was looking for. I couldn’t thank her enough. I would highly recommend Kim to anyone, thanks again. March 2016
Stephanie T, Essex
Neil, thank you for all your help in securing my new role in Edinburgh. I found you very personable and that you gave me genuine insight and advice in relation to the firm that I have secured a job with. Your commitment and effort were a great help though out the stressful job-hunting process. I would have no hesitation recommending your services to a friend. March 2016
Katharine M, Scotland
Greg, I just wanted to say that I have been very pleased with your help and advice in obtaining my new post. You have kept me informed throughout and updated me without me having to ask for any information. Contact with you was very easy and you replied promptly by email, voicemail and messages. Your support throughout has been much appreciated. March 2016
Hilary K, Cambridgeshire
Neil, I just wanted to thank you again for all of your hard work. I am now about to commence an amazing role which was in no small way contributed to by your patience, perseverance and insight. Your advice in the initial stages and at interview stage was invaluable. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to other candidates and in fact have already done so. Thanks again! March 2016
NM, Scotland
Thank you QED for finding me my new position. I received fantastic service and support from Graham and Jemma, they kept me updated every step of the way. Would highly recommend QED to anyone who is looking to secure a new role. March 2016
Kay B, West Yorkshire
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Graham at QED Legal for his help and support in finding me a suitable full-time position in a legal practice in such a short period of time. I found Graham attentive, efficient and professional. I am very happy to recommend the service offered by QED Legal. All the best for the future. March 2016
Marlene F, West Yorkshire
Jemma was brilliant. Where other agents would not have even tried, she persevered in getting me an interview at my ‘ideal’ firm. I can only suspect that her negotiating skills are excellent. Jemma was very professional throughout the process and kept me informed regularly. I have not had to ‘chase’ her once. I would say that Jemma’s communication skills are great. I also found Jemma quite assertive and I know that she would not have placed me in this role if she thought I was not fully suited to it. She would voice her opinion clearly in any case. I don’t think I would have secured this role without Jemma and I will certainly refer her to any of my friends if they were to seek a new role. March 2016
Sophia M, West Midlands
From start to finish Abi at QED Legal was an amazing help, she was on the ball and found the right jobs to suit what I wanted. Abi found me a job that I was successful in obtaining within 3 days and I would recommend her to anyone I know looking for law work. March 2016
Christopher W, Sussex
I would thoroughly recommend Greg to anyone searching for a new role. I was quite overwhelmed by the recruitment process but Greg really listened to my requirements and guided me through the process easily. Greg was available and supportive, unlike other agents I engaged with, and I felt that he really had my best interests at heart. Greg helped me to secure a great NQ role and I would not hesitate in using him again if I ever choose to change roles in the future. March 2016
Amy M, Oxfordshire
I have found Jemma not only to be approachable but also professional. She listened to what my requirements were and was honest on whether they would be achievable or not. Jemma was very quick in finding me positions that met my criteria and helped me during the interview stages also. I would happily use Jemma’s services again. March 2016
Rav K, West Midlands
Graham, thank you for your help and assistance in getting me my job, negotiating a decent salary and being easy to contact. It was a pleasure working with you and I wish you and your business all the best. March 2016
Camilla A, West Yorkshire
I can’t thank Kim enough for all the hard work she put into finding me a job. She was very efficient and friendly, within a week of sending my cv I already had a date for a job interview. During this process Kim was very supportive and answered any questions I had. I recommend Kim to anyone looking for a new job. This is definitely the best job agency I’ve been with and will use them again in the future if needed! Thank you Kim! March 2016
Haley J, Hertfordshire
Hi Nick, Yes just having a celebration tapas as we speak :-). All ready to go on Monday. Thanks a lot for your help – very much appreciated. February 2016
Jess F, North West
Matt – I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you very much for all of your assistance support and advice. You have been absolutely great so thank you for helping me secure a role so efficiently and speedily. February 2016
Munisha H, West Midlands
Kim matched my skills and background perfectly with a very good job opportunity. She provided me with extremely constructive and honest advice and gave me a brilliant insight into the personality of the company that I was interested in joining. This has turned out to be an excellent job within a very supportive firm with lots of opportunities for future progression. Kim has excellent people skills, is very trustworthy, and has been helpful and informative throughout the process. She has also stayed in touch with me during my employment to check on how things were going and has shown a genuine interest in whether the move has worked out for both myself and my employer. I have no hesitation in recommending Kim to candidates and employers and believe they will be extremely pleased by her efforts. February 2016
Dan H, Hertfordshire
Thank you so much Dawn, you too have been an excellent recruitment consultant to work with, the only one I have to say, in Manchester, who has even come close to producing what I’ve been looking for – in fact you’ve found exactly what I was looking for. I’d say I’d keep in touch, but from what I’ve heard, know and seen of my new firm, I don’t think I’ll be wanting to move any time soon – they are the best in the city when it comes to law firms and I am going to be working for one of their senior partners. February 2016
N. M., North West
Jason, once again thank you so much for all your help. The prospect of finding a job in London when I had no idea of the London market was pretty daunting but you made me feel much more positive and hopeful. I’m delighted to have secured a job so quickly and am really excited for my big move. February 2016
Carol C, London
I have found working with Nick a complete delight, he was very good at finding the suitable position and to making all the contacts to get me where I need to be. Communications were very pleasant and I would definitely recommend his services when looking for the ideal role. February 2016
Millie H, North West
After finding the job advert on QED Legal’s website, I contacted Greg who really helped me understand not only the role I was interested in but the culture and philosophy of the firm too, which is was so important to me. Greg was very efficient and approachable throughout the whole recruitment and interview procedure, not only keeping In touch during this process but also after I had settled in the firm. Thank you QED Legal for the perfect job match! February 2016
Leanne C, East Anglia
Kim was very efficient, friendly and supportive throughout the process of my job search. I knew that Kim had my best interests in mind whilst helping me and I have never experienced the same with any other agency previously. I could contact Kim out of the normal office hours which, when trying to seek alternative employment whilst still working is very helpful. Overall, Kim made this whole experience less stressful and more exciting, especially because I was also moving house at the same time! I would recommend Kim to anybody who is looking for alternative employment within the legal industry. February 2016
Charlotte A, Essex
Graham at QED Legal was amazing, so professional and supportive, with the bonus of a new job which I enjoy immensely. I’d recommend QED to any firm or individual. February 2016
Michelle J, West Yorkshire
I cannot thank Graham enough for his hard work and diligence in putting forward my cv and arranging interviews so quickly. He was extremely helpful in providing support and guidance in preparing for interviews and was very prompt in returning calls and emails and obtaining updates as to how the interviews went. Graham certainly took the stress out of job hunting and that I cannot thank him enough. February 2016
Matthew J, West Yorkshire
Hi Nick, I’m really pleased they made an offer, as I got a good vibe from the place whilst there. I received an offer letter through on Friday by email. They’re very much on top of things! Thank you so much for all your help and with the help of securing a position for me. I will certainly recommend you. February 2016
Rakhi C, North West
Jason is by far the best agent I have ever worked with. He was hands on from the very beginning. He showed a keen interest as to the type of person I was and what I was looking for immediately from our first telephone conversation, it was then that I knew Jason cared about getting me exactly the job I wanted and that was right for me. Jason is always available for a pep talk and post interview meltdown! He will go that extra mile to sell you as a candidate so you know that everything is well looked after! Another strong point of Jason’s is that he kept me very well informed. Going for your dream job is stressful every step of the way, and you are on the edge on your seat whilst waiting for an answer. Jason kept me informed at regular intervals managing my expectations fully. February 2016
Anita R, London
I worked with Graham Rawlinson and QED legal while I was looking to secure a move away from London to the North of England. He was always informative about the options available and had an excellent depth of knowledge about the firms who approached me. He also gave sound advice and provided a valuable perspective when I came to make decisions. I was comfortable leaving matters in Graham’s hands and he was effective in both identifying options for me and in negotiating the final package. I would recommend Graham and QED to anyone looking to move in the legal sector. February 2016
Matthew F, Yorkshire
Jason is one of the best recruiters I’ve come across in the market- very reassuring, readily available and extremely proactive. He put a lot of time and effort into speaking with me, researching potential roles and as a result placed me into a great firm within a matter of weeks. I have already recommended and will continue to recommend Jason- a truly fantastic recruiter and an absolute pleasure to work with. February 2016
Sej L, London
Within 2 weeks of me being told that I did not have a position at the firm I was in upon finishing my training contract, Abi had negotiated and secured me a position in a local firm and in the department I wanted. I cannot express how quick, effective and professional the staff from QED were. Abi supported, advised and encouraged me through a very difficult time and I firmly believe that thanks to Abi, I only had to wait weeks and not months to find a position suitable for me. Many thanks Abi, you were dedicated and amazing. I recommend people to use QED first above all other recruitment agencies. February 2016
Kieron L, Sussex
With QED’s swift and discrete service, I have found the perfect role to take my career forwards. They took the time to understand my needs, to find exactly the type of role I was looking for. Thanks for all your help Jemma. February 2016
John M, East Midlands
Hi Graham just wanted to thank you for your friendly and professional service in helping me secure a new role’ February 2016
Sarah A, West Yorkshire
Jason promptly made contact with me after I applied for a job via Indeed.com. From the outset, Jason made me feel at ease and was not at all pushy, unlike other experiences I have had with recruitment consultants. Throughout the interview process, Jason was approachable kept me informed with updates without delay. Jason made the whole experience a lot less stressful and I would highly recommend him to others. February 2016
Louise A, London
Incredibly efficient’ is the phrase that comes to mind, when I think about Michael. He is an excellent communicator with great people skills and he knows very well how to deliver excellent results. He was extremely helpful in my case, as he would constantly keep me updated during the recruitment process. I would highly recommend his services to anyone who is looking for new opportunities. January 2016
Anthony C, London
Jemma listened to what I wanted, my values, my goals and put me in contact with like minded firms. Jemma’s professional approach found me a great job at a top firm. Cannot recommend enough. January 2016
Tom H, Lincolnshire
I dealt with Graham at QED Legal and he was very professional and easy to deal with. The main thing that impressed me about Graham was that he actually listened to what role I was looking for and actively went out there to find me a role rather than try and push other roles on to me that would have made Graham’s job easier for himself. Graham would be my first port of call if I were to start looking for another job January 2016
Lee H, West Yorkshire
Hi Graham, Many apologies for the delayed response. I confirm that I am now well settled in at my new firm. Thank you very much for your help and assistance in placing me in contact with this practice. I am very grateful for your professional attitude and attention to detail. It was very reassuring to have someone working on my behalf who was constantly looking after my interests and did what he stated he would do at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending your services. January 2016
Ian F, West Yorkshire
I had the fantastic experience of working with Michael. He will always make time to engage clearly with you and get back to you extremely quickly with any updates. His assistance helped me find a new opportunity very quickly. I highly recommend Michael’s services January 2016
Neil M, London
Hi Graham just a quick email to thank you for your help getting me a job, you were efficient, helpful and cannot believe you got me a job in less than 5 days! I haven’t heard from the firm to confirm start date as yet, but I hope to hear from them tomorrow. Many thanks January 2016
Charlotte B, West Yorkshire
Speaking from my personal experience, Jason’s approach to recruitment is as unique as the results he achieves for his clients. Jason does not passively match candidates to jobs as they pop up, as is the industry standard. Rather, he reviews and evaluates professional profiles in order to identify exemplary individuals that are talented, driven and willing to proactively develop their legal careers. He then goes out to market and actively markets these individuals to top tier firms, leveraging long-standing connections and excellent relationships with senior partners. His relationships are such that he is aware of capacity requirements within firms, and the level of fee-earner required before the firms advertise a vacancy. As such, the process is not only personalised but highly efficient. In my case, this resulted in an interview within four hours of my first contact with Jason, and an offer within three days. Jason did not rush me to accept terms and was supportive of the subsequent period of negotiation regarding terms. The end result was, on all counts, a fantastic position that suits my skills, career goals, and market value. Jason is a credit to his clients and to his profession. More should follow his lead. January 2016
William M, London
QED were very quick replying to me and really helpful in getting my application submitted. Christina was very friendly and always available to update me and liaise with the firm. The job has been great for me and I am very thankful that Christina and QED were able to make it such a quick process. January 2016
Matthew H, Kent
I have dealt with a few recruitment companies when looking for a new job, QED Legal has by far been the best. Neil found me my dream job within a week of being introduced. Neil took all the stresses of looking for a new job, he was quick, efficient and ensured the job fitted all my requirements. I highly recommend QED Legal and thank them for all their hard work. January 2016
Neha S, Scotland
It was a pleasure working with Michael. He is extremely thorough with the work that he does and ensures that he gets you the best opportunity that is available.

Tola O, London

Just wanted to say thank you to Abi at QED Legal for helping me find a job within a matter of minutes of putting my CV on line and then within a matter of days secure a position with an established law firm.

Mike S, Hertfordshire
I cannot recommend Jason highly enough. Within six working days of my initial conversation with him, he had arranged two interviews, and had followed up with them so quickly that I had two offers. He was extremely approachable and supportive in my decision making process and made the entire procedure extremely easy. He is by far the most effective recruitment agent I have come across. December 2015
Natalie S, London
I can recommend Graham (Rawlinson); he has been very approachable yet professional throughout the whole process. He has matched me very well with my new employer’. December 2015
F.A., Leeds
Jonathon’s service was great, from day one I felt as though he was searching for suitable jobs for me and going out of his way to find a result. I have found some recruitment agencies don’t want to make the effort if a certain role is turned down, however I didn’t get this impression from Jonathon; he was very proactive in his approach. He was interested in the process of my application and interviews and our discussion on the morning of the interview really helped my nerves. He’s gone the extra mile for me and I really appreciate it. I’m looking forward to starting afresh. Thank you again, I will keep in touch and let you know how it goes.
Amy J, West Midlands
I cannot fault all the work that Jemma at QED Legal put into helping me find my new role. Jemma worked tirelessly to assist me in every way and was never too busy to take my calls. What a fantastic company QED Legal are! I really cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for me Jemma.

Sue C, Derbyshire
This was the first time looking for a new role as I have been with my current firm since starting training. I told Kim what I wanted and she agreed with me what kind of role I should be looking for…and then found it! Kim has been efficient, but also empathetic towards the stress and feeling of guilt which come when leaving a firm you feel so loyal towards. I couldn’t have done this without her and whatever success I achieve in my new position – she’s responsible for that! November 2015
Ella J, Buckinghamshire
Thank you Abi for making the finding a job process easy and for helping me at every step. Unlike most recruiters you were not pushy but you were supportive and gave me the guidance I needed and was surprised how fast the process was with your help from the interview stage to handing my notice in my current job and I look forward to starting my new job! November 2015
Alison M, Sussex

Verity H, Kent
I would definitely recommend Neil Campbell at QED Legal. Neil assisted me to secure a new role in a few short weeks. He is pro-active and an excellent communicator, with relevant knowledge of the legal sector in Scotland. He was always ready to listen and provided direct, clear advice. Neil makes the whole process straightforward. I cannot praise him highly enough. October 2015.
Marie H, Scotland
I first spoke with Kim when I had just started to search for a new role. Kim made the whole process easy and stress free. Quite honestly, I didn’t really have to do much, Kim listened to what I wanted and where I wanted to be in five years’ time and found the perfect role for me! She not only did that but she also guided me through the whole process and gave me that final push that I needed to “go for it”! Kim is great at what she does and I will remain ever grateful for the position she has helped find for me!! October 2015
Ali C, Essex
Just wanted to say a BIG thank you to Abi at QED Legal for helping me secure a position with an established law firm. Having recently relocated and left my previous job, Abi was fantastic and very understanding in helping me find the right position and most importantly, with the right company.

Kelly H, Yorkshire
Neil – The exceptionally quick turnaround from introductory phone call to an offer of employment has been outstanding. Neil was always at the other end of the phone or email to support and provide guidance. QED is certainly the recruitment firm of choice if you are in the legal market throughout Scotland October 2015
Tom G, Scotland
Morning Jonathon. I just wanted to say thank you for locating a suitable role for me. You have been very supportive and have listened to what I wanted moving forward. You have always texted me to see if it is convenient to talk which was important to me as I didn’t want my present employers to have any inkling as to what was going on. Thank you once again for being very professional, pro-active and finding this post for me. I will certainly be back in touch with you should I need any help in the future with finding a new role.

I look forward to starting my new role August 2015

Hamid J, West Yorkshire
I would without any hesitation at all recommend Kim Fitt to my family, friends and colleagues looking for a change in jobs. From the first time Kim called me she was an absolute star. She was polite courteous and filled me with encouragement. From the word go she was proactive in finding me a position that would fit like a glove. She seemed to have a sixth sense of what firm would suit me and she was of course right. She kept me informed at every stage and kept my stress levels to an absolute minimum. Changing jobs is stressful time, and I can honestly say with Kim at my right hand it was easy and stress free. I cannot thank you enough Kim for all your efforts.”

Satinder J, London
Dear Abi I would like to thank you for your exceptional service and skill in finding me a new position. From start to finish you demonstrated a distinct professionalism; you were friendly, approachable and made things easy.

Thank you again for your help, support and assistance and to a job well done! June 2015
Wendy C, Sussex
Greg – I am grateful to you and Jemma for your support and really looking forward to this new opportunity. It is strange to think that I only sent my CV off on a spur of the moment decision as the advert really appealed to me I handed in my notice (three calendar months) yesterday and have accepted the new position and just received the contract. I was really impressed by your professionalism and desire to help. You really listened to what I had to say in terms of what I was looking for in a new role. With many thanks again, Belinda

Trisha H, Sussex
I would highly recommend Jonathon at QED Legal if you are looking for your next move in your legal career. Most agencies just put you forward for jobs which are often not what you are looking for. Jonathan listened to what I was looking for in my next move and worked with me to secure the role that was right for me. I felt supported all they way through the process. June 2015
Aman B, West Midlands
Thank you Kim for your diligence and application in obtaining my new position as a Senior Associate
Lee H, Essex
After being let down by other recruitment firms, I was extremely happy to have dealt with QED and in particular Graham Rawlinson. I was impressed at the level of professionalism and he made me feel extremely in the loop about every part of the processes, from submitting my CV to the interview and ultimately the job offer.

Anna B, Merseyside

May 2015
Parminder B, London
I found Neil more than helpful in my search for an NQ Private Client position. He worked hard on my behalf to access key decision makers, and seemed to be able to get me interviews for positions which I would not necessarily have thought I had the requisite experience for. He had good contacts and a good understanding of the market. He was keen to give me a good insight into the firm as part of my interview preparation and was very diligent in keeping in touch over progress with the various firms. Through Neil’s efforts, I found myself in a position where I had several offers and Neil’s efforts definitely contributed to that situation. I do feel that Neil made a significant difference to my search for a suitable NQ position and I would recommend him. May 2015
Kirsten M, Scotland
I wish to thank Neil for all his assistance and support in finding me my NQ position. Without his knowledge and skills I would still be worrying about my finding an NQ position. His experience and contacts within Scottish law firms is truly amazing. He provides you with relevant information about the firm and prepares you fully for interviews. It took Neil only a matter of weeks to find me my NQ position with a top 100 UK law firm and I would recommend using Neil and QED for locating your next legal position. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed. May 2015
Tom H, Scotland
Jemma – I’m pleased to confirm that I handed in my notice yesterday and confirmed my start date with my new firm. I would like to thank you so much for what you have done for me. In the space of a week you have changed my life! April 2015

I just wanted to say thank you to Jason for assisting me with my job applications.

Gaia P, Surrey
I have used many recruiters over a period of time and I can safely say Jason is by far the best I have ever come across. He took time to really understand me and what I was looking for. I have already passed his details on many times and would do so without doubt. April 2015
Sarah A, Surrey
On first point of call with Jason, we went into depth with regards my needs and requirements. I was felt instantly at ease with him by the way he came across; friendly, professional and a delight to speak to. Within a few hours of our initial conversation Jason had already managed to secure several applications and kept me informed throughout of updates and progress everyday. In all my experience, I have never come across such a dedicated individual that really gives it his all. Would I recommend him to others? 110% April 2015
Sabeen J, London
Jason, as far as I’m concerned, my search for a job was handled very professionally, and great effort was made to find the suitable job for me, rather than getting me to fit to an available job. April 2015
Rob B, London
Jason has good market knowledge and is commercially astute. He provided an efficient service in the recruitment process, from initial interviews through to the negotiations and conclusion. Throughout it all he provided helpful insights and remained polite and courteous; always managing to keep myself (and the firm) updated. He also balanced retaining momentum throughout the process, without haranguing either side. He provided an excellent service and I look forward to working with him again, either as a recruiter or a candidate. April 2015
Rob K, London (City)
Jason took the time to talk to me, finding the right role to fit my requirements. I found him to be helpful in discussing my needs and knowledgeable of the market. He followed up on my placement with me to ensure I was happy and it was a good fit. I would recommend him to anyone currently looking for a new role. April 2015
Paul N, London
The service was consultative as opposed to a sake focused recruitment initiative. Jason genuinely cared about the career decision I was making and apart from being personable, he was able to provide direction and strategic advice when it came to negotiation. Honesty is also a rare trait in recruitment. Jason has it in abundance and is responsive and professional. April 2015
Ashfaque K, London (City)
I signed up to QED Legal a while ago when looking for secretarial work. I always kept myself on their books in case an opportunity were to arise. Kim called me whilst I was on my lunch break one day and within a week I had 2 interviews and 1 job offer. Kim was very quick and efficient whilst not being pushy. I am very pleased with the service I have received from QED Legal and if their other consultants are as on the mark as Kim, then you can’t go wrong! April 2015
Kate L, South East
Having been placed into a new role by Garry Mewett of QED, I can honestly say that he acted speedily but yet professionally. I now have my dream job which is ideally suited to my personality, aspirations and qualifications. I would thoroughly recommend QED to employers, friends and family alike. They really have set themselves apart from the crowd. April 2015
Natalie F, South West
I had the pleasure of working with Kim during my career transition in July 2014. Kim was immediately dedicated to helping me and even provided support in ways I didn’t know I needed assistance in (but she was right!). Her advice was extremely valuable, intelligent and thorough plus I could always count on her to follow up when/how she said she would. I have already recommended her to others who are open to job search guidance and I will continue to do so with confidence. Thanks, Kim! April 2015
Ola M, Home Counties
Neil was extremely efficient from start to finish, demonstrating excellent knowledge and understanding of the legal jobs market in Scotland. Neil actively pursued a number of firms on my behalf, keeping in regular contact with me throughout. Within three weeks of first making contact with Neil, I secured a position. Highly recommended March 2015
Harriet R, Scotland
I found Jemma to be very knowledgeable of the legal market and found her advice and support invaluable.

March 2015
Tola O, East Midlands
Greg, firstly I would like to say thank you for your help in finding me a new position. I found that your service was extremely helpful, always keeping me updated and also calling to find out how things went. I found you were professional and very easy to talk to. I would recommend your service to people seeking work and if I was in a position of unemployment again or searching for work, I would definitely come back to you for your services. March 2015
Hakim A, East Anglia
Jemma was really helpful with my job search. She listened to what I was looking for and didn’t put me forward for every job under the sun which is what a lot of recruitment consultants do nowadays! She kept me informed and updated throughout the whole process, prepared me well for my interview and was constantly checking in throughout my job search. She knew the area well and was full of handy tips and advice! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a job! Thanks again Jemma! February 2015
Sarah C, Leeds, West Yorkshire
Having travelled Australia for the best part of a year, I was understandably apprehensive about my prospects of securing a Solicitor role in a declining market. As soon as I heard that QED had a vacancy with a Top 20 International Law Firm I was immediately interested. Greg and Nick were both fantastic. The process was so quick and easy. From applying for the role, to being interviewed, to being offered the job, the whole process took less than a week. Nick even managed to secure me an immediate start which came in handy given my lack of funds post-travelling. I would definitely recommended QED Legal to my friends and colleagues or indeed anyone looking for a new opportunity. Thanks a lot guys… February 2015
Phil S, Manchester
I found the service provided by Nick Skelly to be efficient, professional and effective. My requirements for my new role were conveyed to the prospective employer and the details regarding the available position suited my requirements and my skills.

Overall I would highly recommend Nick Skelly for his professional and friendly approach. Thanks to him I was successful in my move to a new position in a very short period of time. February 2015
Jackie T, Staffordshire
I would highly recommend Neil Campbell to any colleagues or friends looking for a career in law. Neil goes beyond the call of duty and is the best recruiter I have ever used.

I wouldn’t go with anyone else. February 2015
Karen B, Scotland
Garry – I wanted to let you know how pleased I was with your recent hard work in finding me employment so quickly. You could not have done any more for me. You were always available and very proactive. If the need arises I would be delighted to use you again and will certainly recommend you. February 2015
Malcolm F, Sussex
I have used Neil’s recruitment skills over the past 7 and a half years. As a recruiter, I have always found that Neil will listen carefully to my spec and fully understand the position being recruited for before bringing me details of candidates who match the spec and who are of the highest quality for consideration. A highly professional service all round February 2015
Stephanie C, Glasgow
I would recommend QED Legal Recruitment to anyone looking to change jobs. Neil knew his clients inside out. I have never known a recruiter to have so much information about the job, the employer and their people. He was very professional and kept me in the loop at all times, even when he was on holiday! Excellent service! February 2015
Jacqueline T, Scotland
Kim’s communication from start to finish was fantastic. I got the help I needed to find the perfect role for me. The process was a pleasure from start to finish thanks to Kim’s hard work February 2015

Janice W, South Yorkshire
Neil was helpful throughout the process of being recruited. From our first conversation it was clear that he was a straight down the line operator who saw things as they are and spoke to that effect. This made the whole process refined and time efficient. Neil is an excellent sounding board for discussing how one might want to approach an interview to maximise their chances. I also have to credit Neil with reassuring me of my capabilities which made all the difference come the 2nd interview. Furthermore, when I was discussing the terms of the company’s offer with Neil he had the knowledge of the market to advise when “enough was enough”. He can do this with a relative stranger because Neil is a very personable professional. He knows what he is talking about and expresses himself well. He is the first person I would call if I ever felt a change was required. A credit to himself and his employer. January 2015
Iain W, Scotland
Hi Nick, things are going well. Thanks for all your help in securing me a new role. Everyone is really lovely and I am settling in very well. January 2015

Jemma is excellent at what she does and I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending her. It can be a very daunting and uncertain process changing jobs (at Partner level) and Jemma was helpful, encouraging and supportive in every way possible. November 2014

Kim was friendly, helpful, understanding and easy to communicate with – not a typical annoying agent! Thanks for helping me find a great new role! November 2014
Rebecca K, Hertfordshire
Highly recommended – especially Nick Skelly. Cannot do enough for you – even after I accepted a job offer Nick was still on hand to see if QED could be of any further assistance. If I ever wish to find another job (hopefully I will not) QED will be my first point of call October 2014
Lyn R, Merseyside
I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by Nick Skelly at QED Legal Recruitment. He was always available when I needed to discuss potential positions and only offered to put my CV forward for positions that were commensurate with my level of experience and salary expectations. He managed to secure an interview for me with a prestigious law firm and I was offered a position with a package that exceeded my expectations. I would like to work with him again but hope I don’t have to! I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for a new job in the legal sector. Thanks for all your help. October 2014
Joe G, Merseyside
I was in contact with Jemma a month before I was due to move from Australia to England. From our first telephone conversation she told me was going to find me a job before I arrived. And she did!! A week before I’m due to arrive, and I have been offered a position in a conveyancing role which was exactly what I was after. Jemma is efficient, friendly and her determination to find me a job has helped make my big move a lot easier. Thank you! October 2014
Antonet M, South Yorkshire
I cannot recommend QED enough as a legal recruitment agency in Scotland. They have great, “on the ground” knowledge of the legal sector in Scotland, which really feeds back into the relevance of the advice and the quality of the service they provide. Not only is it very apparent that they have a good relationship with partners and HR teams within the firms they represent, but they really took time to understand what I, as a potential candidate, was looking for and what my skills and aspirations were, enabling them to suggest really great, very suitable potential jobs for me. They are friendly, professional and honest in their approach and brilliantly efficient. They really make finding a new role as stress-free as possible. October 2014
Jen C, Scotland
Jemma – just wanted to say thank you very much for your proactive and friendly approach. Highly recommended. September 2014

Thank you so much for everything. You have helped me so much. September 2014
Kate R, North East

I wasn’t put in the position of having to turn down suggested roles, on the basis that they did not take into account my preferences. I have recommended you to several people in the past few months, and will happily continue to do so. Thank you for the fantastic service I received from you. January 2014

Deborah M, Manchester
I was contacted by QED Legal within hours of starting my job search. After a thorough initial consultation, I was given a good idea of the market and what to expect. A plan of action was also put in place. This plan soon bore fruit, as I was installed in a role which suited my needs perfectly in next to no time. QED Legal were very approachable throughout the whole process. I have recommended them to others on many occasions since.
Simon E, Lancashire
Toby was a pleasure to deal with and took the time to not only talk to me but more importantly to listen to what it was that I was actually looking for in a new role and to consider my requirements before discussing possible vacancies without putting any pressure on me to make quick decisions. I would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for a new position.
Barbara T, Manchester
Toby identified the perfect firm for me to work at. He was supportive and helpful at all stages and even called me at 7pm on a Friday evening to let me know I had the job as he hadn’t been able to get hold of me earlier. He certainly went the extra mile for me and I can’t recommend him highly enough.
Andrew W, Liverpool
‘Toby Williamson has demonstrated himself to be the finest recruitment consultant in the North West. He is personable with a good knowledge of the legal market. He takes time to understand where you are in your career and is very keen to offer honest excellent advice as to what you should look for to reach your goals. It is quickly very clear that QED have an ethic of treating their candidates as people and ambitious people at that rather than just a commodity to be traded. Toby was always quick to respond to my phone calls and emails and reverted to me even when I had not been successful for a specific role. Toby was also very good at always providing feedback rather than simply losing interest when you were no longer in consideration for a role. Once Toby had taken the time to do this he then found a suitable role at an excellent firm offering exactly the type of work and variety I was looking for. I later found out that the role had been created based on Toby’s recommendation of me. I truly cannot speak highly enough of Toby Williamson and QED and would highly recommend them. If I needed a job ever again I would not go anywhere else.’
Jon B, North West
Hi Nick, just wanted to thank you for all your help in securing my new position. You have been very helpful and prompt on all updates and communications and I am sure this professional approach helped secure my appointment.

Kelly T, East Midlands
I contacted QED Legal in response to a particular vacancy they were advertising for a Legal Practice Manager. Toby was very helpful and had a good knowledge of his clients needs and after a detailed discussion about my qualifications and experience he put my details forward. I was fortunate enough to get an interview along with several other candiates and after some pro-active follow up calls from Toby I was offered the position. The firm and the scope of the job are exactly as Toby outlined to me and I am very happy and settled in my new role. I would not hesistate to recommend QED Legal if you are looking for a change in your legal career.

Sam H (Solicitor L500 commercial firm), North West
I highly recommend Toby at QED for his professionalism in greatly assisting me in my job search. He took my personality and career needs into consideration, listened, and provided advice, support and feedback. Toby arranged 3 good interviews in a couple of weeks and assisted in me obtaining a super package. Toby was brilliant from the beginning- he understood the current market and the position that I was looking for and suggested realistic possibilities.Toby made the whole process of looking for a new job rewarding, tireless and personal. He stood out from all the other people at different recruitment agencies as he kept in great contact with me and let me know he was always available to help. The biggest advantage for me in using Toby at QED was the fact that he did not waste countless hours waffling on, the speed in which he secured interviews and his astute understanding of the present market.

Sue B, North West
I applied to QED during a tumultuous and turbulent time in Legal Recruitment, especially in the North West. Toby found me an excellent position in a well respected Firm with both great prospects and a remuneration and benefits package above my expectations. I was kept apprised at every step and I found the service levels and advice exemplary. Toby really went the extra step for me, be it phone calls at a time I could manage, or using his extensive links in the North West to secure the best career move for me. I would recommend Toby and the team at QED to all those requiring the assistance of specialist legal recruiters.

In a market where commercial “fee” considerations often outweigh the suitability of placement imperative, Toby is a refreshing change , approaching the task of helping to secure a rewarding career move with a caring , bespoke methodology. Toby is a throughly decent and effective fellow whom I would happily recommend. He will always put your interests first.

I signed up with QED and Jemma Williamson was straight on the case. Within 2 weeks she had secured me an interview with one of the top 500 Law Firms. I was then invited to a second interview and got the job. Jemma has been absolutely fantastic. She took all the pressure off me. Found me the right role that suited me and secured the interview. I cant sing her praises enough. I would recommend QED and Jemma to anyone looking for the right position in the Law Industry. Thanks again Jemma.

“Toby first came to see me 13 years ago as his first client visit after leaving a career in law to set up his own legal recruitment company. Since that time we have both enjoyed career changes and I wish him success in his new venture.”
