Experts in helping you build your in-house team

I came across Accutrainee at a law fair during my GDL year. I had previously moved to the UK from overseas and done a non-law degree for my undergraduate year. I was intrigued by their unique training model and impressed by the professionalism of the team at the law fair. I eventually applied for their training contract and after their rigorous recruitment process I was added to their database of successful candidates. A few months later I received a call from Andrea – their HR manager about a placement opportunity at one of their new clients—a specialist law firm focusing on all areas of Pensions law. As I didn’t grow up here, I had no preconceptions or stereotypes associated with the word ‘pensions.’ I was told before the interview that no previous knowledge or experience was required and to treat my interview as I would for any commercial law firm.

We were delighted to be able to support a new in-house GC with their first legal hire.  From a direct recommendation through one of our alumni we were approached by a newly appointed GC who was looking to grow their team and wanted to discuss how Accutrainee could support their future needs.

Given our experience in supporting in-house team we were able to map out specific requirements.  Over a very short period gaining insights to their specific needs through in-person meetings we collaborated with the GC to present a tailored shortlist from our existing pool of quality candidates ranging from paralegals, trainees, to newly qualified lawyers.  The GC decided to choose a trainee who they wanted to invest in by taking them through to qualification.  Making this decision would allow them to work in partnership with Accutrainee, support their succession planning to build out their in-house capabilities but also tap into Accutrainee in-house expertise and guidance. The trainee was employed directly by the company once qualified.

For new clients considering Accutrainee, this case study underscores our ability to meet your specific needs quickly and with the precision, care, and expertise that comes from over 10 years’ experience in helping in-house lawyers build their teams.
