Fford & Stone International

Fford & Stone International is a London-based recruitment firm that specialises in Legal, Contract Management and Compliance roles. It offers international retained search, interim support, contingency, advertised and confidential approaches, and says it tailors its services to each assignment. It also provides permanent, interim, remote working and payroll solutions, and says it serves blue-chip and multinational clients worldwide.

Its Fluid service covers interim and remote support. Fluid supplies professionals for short and long-term cover on an hourly, daily or weekly basis, remotely or on site, for needs such as maternity or paternity cover, project cover, secondment cover and headcount freezes. Payroll provision is available, as is direct engagement through the consultant's own limited company, and resources can be provided in multinational locations.

The firm gives payroll for a contract management team in Germany and a new general counsel in Singapore as examples of the work it takes on. The people behind Fluid say they have worked with companies in telecoms, ICT, defence, retail, rail, infrastructure, energy, power, oil and gas, banking, finance and commodities.
