Overview of Hannah

With over 20 years of professional services recruitment experience, in particular at the senior end, I am an expert in the Legal recruitment field.

I set up the Sellick Partnership Legal division in 2004 and have delivered year-on-year growth through our dedicated and committed recruitment teams. We work with clients and candidates across England and Wales and we are extremely proud to be considered market leaders within the legal recruitment sector.

I became Legal Director in March 2006 and then Group Director in 2008. Since then, I have overseen the opening of the Leeds and London offices in order to meet growing demand. I take a pro-active and strategic approach to the business, supporting continuous development and helping to form plans for future organic growth.

In addition, I regularly speak at legal conferences and deliver workshops to solicitors and lawyers on a range of topics such as career progression, market trends, leadership and management, as well as general recruitment advice and guidance.

At Sellick Partnership we are Passionate, Respected and Engaging. Our values differentiate us from our competitors; they define our business priorities, both internally and externally. As our business continues to grow, we aim to keep these values at the heart of our company philosophy and aspire to achieve them at every level.
