BCL Legal helped with every stage of the recruitment process from initial advice as to the position, the provision of good candidates and CVs and assistance with the interview process. With a very professional approach and invaluable knowledge of the legal recruitment industry, Ruth and Mark proved to be very useful and responsive to our requirements.
Tom Westcott - Head of Legal - 20:20 Mobile
I engaged BCL Legal because of its unparalleled knowledge of the legal market and candidates in the North West. I was presented with an impressive variety of candidates, which was supported with a real view of their capabilities and aspirations. Needless to say, BCL Legal found an excellent candidate who was a great fit with the team. I have always found the team to be commercial, fair and reasonable in its approach and would recommend them to any company or firm looking to recruit a lawyer.
Head of Legal to 2010 - Renold plc
I have exclusively used Mark Levine for my recruitment over the last five years but for our most recent appointment in March 2010, I had the pleasure of also working with Ruth Taylor. Trust is not something which is easily earned but I trust Mark’s judgement and advice implicitly. Both he and Ruth are refreshingly honest, frank and professional. They have an excellent knowledge of the in-house market and the way in which they approach in-house recruitment, they give a real “value-add” service which is often hard to get from an external consultant. In my view, the key differentiator which Mark and, indeed, Ruth give me over other recruiters whom I have come across, is that they take great pride in fulfilling their recruitment brief. They have invested time to understand our culture and our businesses. There is a genuine desire from them to find the right candidate for the role, rather than simply placing any candidate just to get a fee. This has resulted in them building and maintaining a long-standing relationship with us. I cannot speak highly enough of them - first class all round!
Karen Houghton - Director of Legal Services - Opal Telecom Limited & TalkTalk Technology Limited
We've been delighted with BCL's service, and will certainly look to you again for any future recruitment needs.
Maverick TV, Birmingham - Maverick TV
BCL Legal acted, at all times, in the most professional manner. They remained in constant contact with me throughout the recruitment process and provided me with exactly the right level of advice. As a result the best candidate was recruited! I would have no hesitation in using BCL Legal again in the future.
Zoe Goulding, Solicitor and Company Secretary Dechra Pharmaceuticals PLC - Dechra Pharmaceuticals PLC
de Poel Consulting Ltd used the services of BCL Legal, to recruit an in house Legal Director during 2008. Ruth Taylor and Mark Levine worked on our assignment and provided an excellent level of service throughout the whole process. They gained a full understanding of the recruitment brief, our Company culture and the calibre of candidates we required, whilst making recommendations and sharing their in depth knowledge of the legal recruitment sector with us. The candidate details put forward were of a high calibre and matched our brief, Ruth and Mark clearly had a detailed knowledge of their candidates which was reflected in the overview provided for each candidate which proved very helpful. They ensured that the candidates and our Company were a good fit for each other. BCL Legal delivered on our brief in a professional manner and I would have no hesitation in recommending their services.
Jill Harrison - HR Director - de Poel Consulting Ltd
As a CEO of a £130m turnover enterprise based in Northants, the appointment of a flight Head of Legal was a crucial step. I have dealt with a number of recruitment companies in the past, with mixed results. Mark Levine of BCL provided easily the best quality service I have seen, really focused on our needs, on the candidates needs, and on getting the right person for the job. We are delighted with the outcome. If he covered other areas than law, he would be the only option for our next executive recruitment.
Philip Sugarman - CEO - St Andrews Healthcare
Mark Levine at BCL Legal’s knowledge of the in-house market in the North West is second to none. He is thoroughly professional to deal with and delivers what he commits to deliver on time. Mark kept me updated with details of potential candidates as soon as their CV’s were received and made sure he met with them promptly. He was honest, open and frank about each candidate and understood our needs perfectly, thereby minimising the time I had to spend interviewing. What was particularly impressive is that all Mark wanted to do was to find the right person for the job (which he did!).
Joanna Luke - Head of Legal - Elior UK
I found BCL Legal to be fast, knowledgeable, helpful and professional. I would describe the overall outcome from this recruitment exercise as very successful. I have little doubt that the AZ Legal Department will use BCL Legal's services again in future.
Liam Mcilveen - Assistant General Counsel - AstraZeneca PLC
It is a little while since I tapped into the legal recruitment market, but I felt comfortable with the process from our first meeting onwards. Your project management and regular informal updates kept me in control of the exercise throughout; the more formal candidate reports were concise and helpful and your advice on key aspects of the campaign and closing out the opportunity with my preferred candidate proved to be "spot-on". I believe we have an excellent new member of the team with the right skill set and personality fit and all achieved on schedule and to budget.
