Enhancing our Recruitment Capability | Global Alliance

Alex Correa and Sophie McMenamin • February 1, 2021

Legal Jobs in Brisbane and beyond!

We collaborate for the success of our candidates 


Since 2018, we have collaborated with our affiliate NPA Worldwide partners across Australia to find jobs for dozens of lawyers both in-house and in private practice. By combining our networks we've been able to place lawyers in industries and markets that were beyond our immediate reach. 


We know and believe that we are stronger together for the benefit of our candidates and clients. 


What is NPA Worldwide? 


It is an international network of specialist recruiters. Established for more than 60 years, NPA worldwide brings together approximately 500 specialist recruitment firms and more than 2,000 partnered recruiters across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. Members work closely together and share resources to find the right people, making placements seamless and effective.


A greater reach. Better service across these regions.


Importantly, the NPAworldwide affiliation gives Alex Correa Executive a far broader reach across Australia’s legal sector, particularly in the high demand markets of Melbourne and Sydney. It also significantly expands our contacts internationally, especially in New Zealand, Asia, UK and the Channel Islands. This means we can better service firms located in these areas as well as assist those candidates who are broadening their horizons to these regions or for those Brisbane lawyers who are ready to return home.


Looking to move out of private practice?


As the NPAworldwide affiliation provides us with strong links with associates across a wide range of industry sectors, we can offer a greater number of potential opportunities for lawyers looking to move out of private practice, as well as assist filling more technical and difficult roles. This is made possible by the network that enables us to leverage extensive local know-how and tap into a vast pool of collective, global knowledge and expertise.


Looking to move interstate? We can help.


There are many opportunities for those candidates contemplating a move interstate. In Melbourne, corporate and family lawyers are in high demand, and commercial litigation has also picked up over the last few months. Property lawyers continue to be in demand so to are workplace relations lawyers.


Roles in front-end and back-end construction have also increased in 2021, both in private practice and in-house.


In Sydney, demand is solid for corporate, property and family lawyers as well as for intellectual property and employment lawyers.


Benefits for our clients and candidates.


We’re thrilled about the results we have achieved with our NPAworldwide affiliation. It has powerfully enhanced our recruitment capability and ensures that we continue to generate the best recruitment and career solutions for our clients and candidates.


Whether you or a firm are requiring a legal specialist or assistance with human resource planning, or a candidate seeking a new opportunity or just wishing to discuss career plans, please call us on (07) 3210 0992 for a confidential discussion.



We look forward to talking with you..
