I can’t thank Ryan enough for the role he played in helping me start my legal career. As a recruiter at Douglas Scott, he was not only professional and knowledgeable but also genuinely supportive throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand my goals, kept me informed every step of the way, and matched me with a position that became my first job in law — the start of my dream career.
I couldn’t be more grateful and I’d highly recommend him and Douglas Scott.

I really was very appreciative of the time and attention that was given during the whole process and I would have no hesitation recommending Douglas Scott Legal Recruitment particularly Huw Flanagan-Roberts who had kept me in mind for this role as soon as it became available and kept me fully informed throughout the process. Thank you so much Huw!

I had the pleasure of dealing with Abbie C in relation to a new role - Abbie was fantastic at listening to what I actually wanted from a new position and recommending employers that fit those requirements. With her help I was able to secure a new role a few weeks after getting in touch with her.
