The joint venture is in partnership with experienced legal recruiters Raphael and Reuvan Blake. The brothers from Manchester are aiming to add a new dimension to the legal recruitment sector, combining their experience and commitment to providing a better service to law firms and legal candidates in the UK, with a more personal focus on client and candidate satisfaction.
Group CEO Stuart McBride said “We’re pleased to welcome Raphael and Reuvan to the Bluestones Investment Group. As part of our expansion plans, we want to operate in many key areas of recruitment. It’s important that we invest in recruitment consultants that we believe have the drive and ability to make a company successful. Both Raphael and Reuvan have a wealth of experience in legal recruitment and we’re confident that they will make Blake Chambers a leading legal recruitment company.”
Blake Chambers managing director Raphael Blake said “Both Reuvan and I are really pleased to have started our own recruitment agency. We have over 30 years combined experience in the legal recruitment sector. During this time, we have worked with large international law firms as well as smaller family owned companies. We’ve looked at the competition in the UK and feel with our experience we can provide a higher level of service to clients and candidates alike.”
Blake Chambers operates in several areas of law including commercial litigation, commercial IP, employment and residential conveyancing among others. With offices in Manchester and London, the company will work with law firms throughout the UK.
It is the latest in a line of joint ventures by the Bluestones Investment Group which sees its portfolio of recruitment partnerships expand to over 35 companies.
