Eleanor Sidgwick

Managing Director

An expert in her field, Eleanor has recruited for the legal industry since 2007.

Her primary focus is on partner led hires, whether that be as an appointed search partner on behalf of a firm or instructed directly by a partner who is considering a career move. 

Eleanor’s objective when appointed by either party is to understand the strategy of the search or move, listen and support, using her knowledge to offer measured advice.

Eleanor's career highs include:

• Watching the success of her previous senior hires, following their career, and watching them build out their teams
• Being re-contacted after a candidate has been placed to assist them with a hire into their team
• Having the pleasure of working with an experienced and invested team
• Managing the business, which is less of a challenge than chasing around after her twin boys!
