Marcus was a very professional and proactive recruiter with a solid understanding of the Middle Eastern market. He was always personable, easy to talk to and helpful. I have only positive things to say about his services. I would recommend him to anyone looking to relocate to the region.

As an Australian lawyer relocating to London, the application and interview process can be quite daunting. Marcus was an excellent help with the process. He not only connected me with the perfect role, but also spent a considerable amount of time explaining the London application and interview process and the expectations.
Marcus was a very friendly and easy recruiter to deal with. He was always contactable and respected the time difference between Australia and the UK.
I would highly recommend Marcus' services to anyone looking to relocate to London.

Having trained and qualified in a South West law firm, I was nervous about my chances of moving to a London law firm - Marcus was incredibly helpful and proactive, guiding me through the entire process and keeping me updated (without me having to chase him). He also had a good knowledge and understanding of the issues faced by international candidates requiring visa sponsorship to work in the UK.
I ended up getting an offer from my top choice firm (Tier 1 for my practice area) a few short weeks after my initial call with Marcus - overall a great experience!

Marcus was a great help in obtaining a role with BCLP in London. He was extremely helpful with my preparation for interviews and very responsive to any questions I had during the process. He always made himself available to help (including discussions during his annual leave) plus providing occasional confidence boosters when required. Thanks for your help Marcus.

Marcus' support and expertise were invaluable in helping me secure a role at Herbert Smith Freehills. His knowledge of the sector and insight into the market were impressive and undoubtably assisted in making the decision making process, and eventual transition, as smooth as possible. He went the extra mile to ensure I was prepared for each stage of the process and regularly checked in to see if there was anything more he could do. Above all, Marcus made what could have been a stressful time an enjoyable one and guided me to sharpen my focus to choose a firm which best suited my skill set and personality. Thank you Marcus!
