Case Study | Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council

Partnering exclusively with our local government legal recruiters to assure success

Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council required an experienced Litigation Locum. Having exhausted their contractual routes, a recruitment partner was needed to quickly prioritise and fulfil their requirement.

Priorities supported:

• An experienced Interim Litigation Lawyer to cover maternity leave

• A new route to market with a specialist provider

• A recruitment partner to prioritise a successful outcome, mitigating the time lost whilst using contractual recruitment avenues

Experience applied:

• Approached the client with a bespoke solution, leveraging our depth of expertise in this market

• Retained as an exclusive provider to share the responsibility for the successful outcome of this campaign

• Used our team structure to maximise the efficiency and speed at which we could secure candidate interest

• Recruiting regularly for litigation locums, we were immediately able to contact a list of readily available candidates

Outcomes delivered:

• Our knowledge of this specialist market led us to advise the client to adjust the specification to widen the talent pool and ensure success

• We worked with the client to create a compromise of travel and court requirements, facilitating the supply of a shortlist of three committed and experienced locums

• The process was completed and the candidate in place within a week of the role being given to us

 “The team at Venn Group helped me find a candidate for a position that had been extremely difficult to fill within a short timescale. My experience of using Venn Group has been very positive and I would use them again.”
