Sourcing a high-priority and specific skillset
A global investment firm required urgent legal support for a specific skillset in Abu Dhabi.
The challenge
A global investment firm based in the UAE faced an urgent resourcing challenge due to a sudden resignation within their legal team. They immediately required a real estate lawyer, specifically with experience in front-end construction matters and hospitality, to fill a critical role in their Abu Dhabi office.
What we did
In a matter of days, we provided profiles of potential candidates and scheduled interviews. Despite the limited availability of lawyers with this skillset, based full time in Abu Dhabi, we utilized our extensive network across the Middle East to identify a consultant who met the client's specifications.
The outcome
Given the legal consultant’s breadth of knowledge, they were able to quickly and effectively integrate into the team and deals, adding significant value from day one. This was greatly appreciated by the client, and we received extremely positive feedback. This was the second placement we made with the organization within six months. We pride ourselves on building strong ongoing relationships with our clients which is why we have a reputation as a reliable and efficient partner.
