OUR VALUES
The services at FOCUS are underpinned by the values established and forged into the foundations of the organisation and its culture.
These Values are:
- Committed: Totally committed to responsibly and dutifully performing a service to Clients and Candidates
- Competent: The founder of FOCUS has over 30 years of hands on and engaged legal recruitment and legal talent management expertise second to none in Queensland. He is the Team Leader and mentor at Team FOCUS.
- Confidential: Acting with integrity and empathy one of the enduring values is the respect displayed for the sensitivities associated with legal recruitment both from a Clients’ perspective and that of Candidates. In fact, confidentiality and preserving it at all costs remains of paramount importance and one of the most powerful competitive advantages at FOCUS Legal Recruitment given the proximities within the legal profession. Whether as a Client or a Candidate rest assured confidentiality will be respected and preserved.
- Courageous: It’s not always easy delivering legal recruitment services and interacting with Clients and Candidates most of whom are lawyers with understandable and discerning expectations of who they’ll entrust their career move to or who’ll they’ll instruct on their recruitment requirements. This affinity is frequently evident among Clients and Candidates when instructing FOCUS consultants. They’re aware they’re dealing with consultants who are well qualified, trained and experienced to provide: objective, comprehensive, considered and clear advice. Whether it’s conducting instructions for Clients requiring legal talent, or for Lawyers managing their career as their trusted advisers to the legal recruitment process at FOCUS we’re prepared to have the courageous, objective and transparent conversations with all stakeholders to maximise the prospect of achieving the best recruitment and appointment outcomes which are GUARANTEED.
- Connected/Relationships: Indeed it’s a cliché, however it remains true within the legal profession, it remains a case of: it’s not what you know, but rather who know you know. Relationships, connections and contacts are valued and respected. After nearly 30 years’ worth of relationships and the 100’s of successful recruitment outcomes produced for Clients and Candidates we at FOCUS are understandably proud of the relationship goodwill generated over this time. It’s another compelling competitive advantage for Clients and Candidates in utilising the services. Many of the Candidates we’ve been instrumental in assisting with their careers over the years are now respected leaders and managers in their organisations. We regard as the ultimate compliment and appreciate their instructing, directing and entrusting FOCUS to undertake the legal recruitment requirements of their organisations either for the directly or for their colleagues. They tell us having experienced our service as a Candidate and the recruitment outcome leading to their Career progress and success then why wouldn’t they instruct us ?
- Caring/genuine empathy: At FOCUS we put ourselves to the test every day. We let our Clients and Candidates know we genuinely care for them and the respective career objectives and business interests they represent.
- Continuity/Accessibility: Frequent feedback from Clients and Candidates reveals FOCUS Legal Recruitment is, and remains the one true constant in the legal recruitment consulting arena in a sea of transients and change. It’s the continuity, comfort, respect for confidentiality and accessibility this offers to Clients and Candidates which results in long standing relationships and the ultimate compliment in professional services being substantial repeat and referral business. We’ll stake 30 years on it.
