Read our feature introducing our new hires in Lancashire Business View.

Legal Recruitment specialists, Clayton Legal, have welcomed eight new hires to their team across their offices in Preston and Manchester as they push on with growth plans for 2023.

The latest cohort includes Natasha Roe, Patrick Hackett, Mark Davidson, Sadiyah Raja, Chris Orrell and Josh Nevin who all join the business as Recruitment Consultants, bringing previous experience across professional services, legal, and recruitment sectors.

The new additions will boost the well-established regional teams as they continue to unite hirers in the sector, with jobseekers across all practice areas.

Digital Communications and Content Executive, Omowumi Osundina, has also been recruited to further enhance the marketing department alongside Joel Okoye who joins as a Digital Marketing Apprentice. The appointments of Omowumi and Joel have been made to further enhance the already-established Clayton Legal brand and service offering, as well as drive continuous improvements to the company’s digital channels and client communications.

Lynn Sedgwick, chief executive, said:

“I am absolutely delighted to welcome all seven of our new starters to the Clayton team. Their skills, knowledge and previous experience are already having an impact on our business, and the way we are able to offer a transformational service to Law Firms across the country, as well as legal professionals seeking a new opportunity.

Despite the somewhat uncertain economic backdrop, we are continuing to invest in our business – our people, products and processes – in line with demand for our services and our own ambitious growth plans.

We are committed to being the very best service provider and build on our 25-year heritage in the legal field – and plan to add to our headcount further in the coming months as our search for customer-focused, experienced recruiters continues.”

The increased hiring activity is in addition to the physical growth of the business which opened a second office in Manchester city centre in Autumn last year, with plans to open other branches across the country later this year and beyond.
