Simmons & Simmons is a world-class international law firm, with offices in all major business and financial centres across Europe, Asia and the Middle East. They focus on four significant industry groups, including energy and infrastructure, financial institutions, life sciences and technology, media and telecommunications.
Purpose of the project
The firm commits to providing clients with a significant number of qualified secondees on a rolling basis. A current trend in the FI Sector is the consolidation of panels, with the panel firms expected to provide an even bigger number of secondees in return for a larger percentage of the client’s legal spend. Since many clients have limited ability to grow permanent headcount, there will continue to be growth in demand for secondees, which is becoming increasingly difficult to meet.
Jarred Consulting supported the firm to develop an alternative resourcing model which was a dedicated, flexible resourcing pool of self employed lawyers who could assist in fulfilling client secondment requests as well as staffing extraordinary internal resource needs.
How Jarred Consulting helped
Prior to handing the project over we had made several placements and interest in the initiative was growing.
