Andrew Ellaby started his career at Hays in Manchester in 2010, cutting his teeth recruiting paralegals for law firms across North West England. After less than a year, he was given his big break and was asked to join the Hays international legal recruitment desk. This is where he began helping lawyers make international moves into top-tier private practice law firms around the globe. His time in Manchester allowed him to learn from some of the best and most honourable recruiters in the North West and was a perfect start to his career. After 3 years, Andrew relocated to London with Hays to continue his development, and he progressed to Manager of the private practice legal desk. As well as continuing to help lawyers relocate internationally, Andrew began working on the domestic London market. In his final year at Hays in 2015 he was part of the prestigious 30-person 'Hays Elite' (one of very few individuals qualified due to both personal and managerial/team performance). After 5 and 1/2 years at Hays, Andrew and his team were approached to take over the private practice desk at Eximius. It was an opportunity to work as part of a smaller, specialist agency whilst continuing to learn from some of the best and most honourable people in the business. By 2017, having specialised in international recruitment for nearly 7 years, Andrew thought he should practice what he preached and moved with Eximius to Hong Kong, quickly progressing to Head of the Hong Kong office of Eximius. Still focusing on private practice law firm hiring, but also gaining some useful experience of in-house legal recruitment, Andrew developed to the point where he could start his own agency. He co-founded Ellaby Chamberlain in 2022. Describing himself as friendly, kind, and passionate, Andrew is always happy to speak. Reach out to him if you would like advice on the global legal recruitment markets, or if you would be interested in joining the team at Ellaby Chamberlain.
