Who We Are?


Founded by Rob Barklamb, Langdale Search & Selection aims to bring a fresh approach to Legal recruitment in the North and Midlands. Rob has gained over 14 years' recruitment experience, including spells with the former market leader in Legal recruitment in London as well helping to establish the Leeds Legal recruitment office for one of the world´s largest recruitment consultancies. Most recently he was Vice-President Operations for an International Search firm, holding responsibility for the UK, Continental Europe and the Middle East.



What We Can Do For You


We specialise in Legal recruitment. We recruit fee earners (Assistants through to Partners) and Management in the Midlands and Northern offices of National, Regional and local law firms. We can also recruit for In-House positions in the regions.



Service


Langdale Search & Selection's main service offering is Search, or headhunting as it is otherwise known. We feel that in a market where demand for talent is high and readily available supply is low, Search is the most effective way to make critical appointments in a timely fashion (See Why Search? for more details). Thus we can pro-actively identify all potential prospects for you, approaching all and engaging many in your opportunity, thereafter managing the process through to completion. We leave nothing to chance - we follow a precise and well defined process in order to ensure a successful conclusion to any Search. See Client Services for more details. When you need to advertise, we can run advertised campaigns on your behalf..


What We Don't Do


We do not headhunt from clients.

"Langdale Search and Selection impressed me from the start. The approach was discreet and professional, and built around my availability. It was also a hugely supportive experience, making sure that I was matched to a position that was a good fit for me and the firm.

As an example of the support that is given, one day I said it would be useful to get in touch with someone who had made a similar specialist move. The next day I was given the contact details of such a person.


Making the move via Langdale Search and Selection was a positive experience throughout, and the stresses I have known before were removed by their care and attention to detail. I would not hesitate to recommend the company. Simply first rate.”
