Tracy was very professional, and managed to find me a suitable role at a great firm that I am at now. Great communicator, and very proactive. I'd advise that you know what type of role and environment you are looking for and Tracy will move heaven and Earth to make it happen for you.

My case handler was Leanne at Clayton Legal, as much as the references took a while to come back (out of her control) Leanne did everything she could to ensure I was confident enough to get the role I’ve always rooted far - she made this happen! Thank you so much Leanne, words will never contain how thankful I always will be of your help.

Tracy was fantastic all through the process of getting a new job. She chased up to get feedback and was supportive all through including when I started my new job checking in that everything was going well and if I needed any help. Would recommend Clayton Legal to anyone looking for a new job.

Tracy made other recruitment agencies look extremely average. When I lost my job Tracy was amazing with daily calls with new jobs she has found. She was extremely proactive and managed to get me a job within 2 weeks. Thank you so much 😁

Highly recommend Justine Forshaw at Clayton Legal! she was incredibly helpful and professional throughout, nothing was too much trouble if i had any extra questions or help with anything she was straight on it and always very quick to reply to any emails. The amazing service did not stop there, once i had secured my new position Justine emailed me on several occasions over the first few weeks of my new role and asked how i was getting on, which i did not expect at all. If your looking for help to secure a new role thats suited to you then definitely go through Clayton Legal. Thanks again for all your help Justine!! Jenny
