CapeClarke

CapeClarke is a dedicated legal recruitment consultancy founded by two experienced solicitors, Terry Cape and Chris Clarke, with offices in Manchester and Leeds across the United Kingdom. The agency brings intimate understanding of the legal field through its founders' background in top UK law firms, translating that expertise into honest, insightful recruitment services for legal professionals and law firms.

The consultancy focuses on building trust with both clients and candidates whilst considering their unique needs and aspirations. CapeClarke's approach to legal recruitment emphasises creating meaningful connections rather than simply filling roles, evident in their exclusive placement work for leading in-house legal teams. Their recent mandate for Lincoln International's search for a Deputy General Counsel and work with Vita Group on in-house counsel positions demonstrates their reach into senior legal placements.

With staff based across their Manchester office at Cotton House and Leeds office at West Village, CapeClarke combines deep sector knowledge with responsive, consultative service. The agency's consultancy approach reflects its founders' insider knowledge of law firm cultures and requirements, positioning them to understand and place talent effectively across the UK legal market.
