A NORTH East-based legal recruitment company has opened two new offices in Leeds and London to strengthen its reach across the country.

JDI Legal fills roles from secretary to senior partner. It works with law firms in the North East and services those outside the region, from Gateshead.

Managing director Alan Dawson said: “We looked carefully at the most suitable locations for new offices before deciding on London and Leeds.

“While law firms continue to recruit for existing and new positions, they need to be sure they’re getting the right people.”
