Service level commitments

At Morton Park we love working in our chosen profession of legal search and selection and we always strive to exceed expectations. Our service level commitments include the following: 

• We always take the time to get to know you and your business and to build dynamic, effective, long term relationships with all of our clients.
• We always ensure sure that we understand your requirements, objectives, values and the essential criteria for any role that we are working on. 
• We are exacting in our standards and we never recommend or represent a lawyer to you if we are not assured of their suitability and fitness for the position. As a result our conversion rate is exceptionally high.
• We respect your time and one of the key aspects of our role is that we are here to save you time, not to waste your time. This is largely achieved by being qualitative, value driven and exacting in our standards. 
• We are specialists. We are legally qualified and trained, we have years of experience in the legal industry and we only recruit lawyers. We recruit across all legal disciplines but we do not recruit support staff. We focus our energies on what we do best.
• We work with you as an extension of your team to ensure a seamless recruitment process that will give you a competitive edge in the talent acquisition marketplace whatever your recruitment strategy.
• We work with honesty and integrity and to the highest ethical standards. We always work with your best interests at the forefront and at the heart of everything that we do. We take pride in our work and attend to it with the same care, skill and attention you would expect from a lawyer working on a legal brief. 

• We are accessible and available. We work around the clock when necessary to facilitate transactions across the different time zones that we work in. Whilst we may be constantly in and out of meetings our mobile phones are always on and we make sure we are never out of range for long.
• We are communicative, accountable and transparent. The consultant running any piece of recruitment for you will keep you up to date and informed as to the state of play every step of the way and will always advise you in relation to any factors that may impact on desired outcomes. 
• We  are results orientated. We take pride in our success rates and we consider it our mission to help clients and candidates achieve their objectives in the most efficient, effective way.
• We are also process orientated. We are committed to achieving outstanding results whilst always taking a big picture, long term view and working in a way that accords with our higher values.
• We believe in corporate responsibility and that you reap what you sew. We make a donation to charity for every placement that we make. We aspire to contribute to the legal industry in other ways such as sponsoring not for profit events and generally sharing our time, expertise and experience with the profession wherever we can. 
• We have a replacement guarantee policy in place for all of our clients. However because we put the work into ensuring a good fit at the conception phase, and we work through any potential issues openly and frankly during the recruitment process, we have been never actually been called upon to implement this policy.
• Our rates are competitive and we are happy to offer some flexibility where we can. We strive to be good value for money. Where reward loyal clients with discounts based on and reflective of the volume of work that we do with them. 

Client relationship fundamentals

As with everything we do, our approach to who we work for is qualitative. We only work with reputable, high end, respected, valued employers who respect and value of the service that we provide, and the candidate's who we represent; and who offer invigorating and rewarding career paths, and healthy, sustainable work environments for lawyers. 

For a recruitment assignment to run smoothly we rely on our clients to take the time to provide clear briefs, to clarify any particular or unusual requirements or circumstances, to respond promptly and effectively at each stage of the recruitment process, and to keep the lines of communication clear and open from inception to completion.  

The recruitment process is often a prospective employees first real window into an organisation, and first impressions can be lasting. We work as an extension of your team to ensure that the lawyers experience a seamless, integrated, professional recruitment process, which gives our clients a competitive edge in the talent acquisition marketplace.
