Magenta is a small, friendly and privately owned recruitment company providing a tailored service to those looking for new roles within the Legal Sector and those looking to recruit new talent to their teams.
Established in 2008, we work predominately with small to medium sized law firms. We have built strong working relationships with law firms across England and Wales. We have over 8000 firms of Solicitors on our database covering all counties.
We work with candidates looking for new roles across the whole spectrum of personnel required by firms of Solicitors.
Covid has made us all think a lot more closely about how and where we work and has introduced new areas of discussion within the recruitment process.
We will arrange to talk with you and discuss your own individual and unique criteria for your job search. We will probe into the criteria that matters the most to you – whether that is geographical, size of the company, salary, career prospects, working hours and style (hybrid, remote, office based). You can select the style of contact – by phone, Teams, Zoom or Whatsapp.
We will match you to current vacancies and simultaneously search for vacancies specifically matching your personal goals.
We will keep in touch with you so that you know what is happening with your job search. As a small company we ask that if you have any queries or would like an update we ask you to call us or leave a message on our answerphone or email us. We will absolutely get back to you.
Round pegs and square holes …
We work exclusively within the Legal Sector so we have gained a great deal of knowledge about the kind of employees you may be looking for.
We will discuss the vacancy with you and learn about the qualities you seek in your staff. We will ask about the role and duties as well as the working hours, holidays, flexibility in working style, potential for career development etc and any other benefits you offer your employees.
We advertise vacancies across multiple platforms and maintain a healthy candidate database.
We know that when selecting candidates, it is often difficult to meet all the criteria you have requested. Our in depth registrations allow us to provide you with candidates that are a good match as well as aiming to find those that meet a number of your “ideals” giving you the biggest pool of talent to select from.
We will give you a brief outline of the candidate and explain why we think they might be a good fit for you.
We will keep you informed of progress.
Information for companies using our services
Payment Terms
We offer a choice of payment terms – the rates are the same but you have a choice on when you pay!
Phased Payments
We are committed to getting the right fit for you and consequently these terms give us the opportunity to share the responsibility of the recruit with you.
By chosing Phased Payments the fee is divided into 12 equal monthly payments. Not only is this great for cash flow but but also ensures you only pay for the service you have received. We work hard to ensure we have selected the very best of candidates for you, but for all kinds of reasons, sometimes things go wrong. If our candidate leaves your employment during the first 12 months, for any reason, all you need to do is to let us know and your invoices will cease. Your obligation will be up to the last invoice raised.
Standard Terms
We also offer traditional sliding scale rebate if you would prefer.
