About ALS
The missing connection.
With more than 200 years of recruitment experience between us, we know what we're talking about.

What's the story?
Built by a recruiter who'd had enough.
In 2011 Alex, our founder, broke away from the traditional recruitment firms he'd been working for. He was placing legal professionals and asked himself a simple question: why wasn't he getting in on the work-life balance, remote working, better pay, anti-KPI life he was selling to them?
So he built it. ALS became the go-to name in legal consultancy recruitment years before most agencies worked out what consultancies could do for lawyers. The team grew, and so did the specialisms.
Today we recruit across 11 sectors, from legal and tech to biotech and iGaming, across the UK, Europe, the US and the UAE. Still fully remote. Still no nonsense.

We like being different.
If you're after a bog-standard recruitment firm where profits and KPIs are king, you're on the wrong website.
Straight-talking
No jargon, no false promises. If the market says no, we'll tell you.
Remote since 2011
We were working from anywhere long before it was cool.
Specialists, not generalists
Eleven desks, each run by people who know their market.
Relationships over transactions
We'd rather place you well once than badly twice.
Where we work.
Offices in the UK and the UAE. Clients and candidates across Europe and the US too.
