Jon Varey

Jon Varey began his career in legal search in 1989 when, as one of the founding partners of The Bloomsbury Group, he was responsible for developing the firm's legal recruitment businesses. That business had two principal areas of focus, first, satisfying the senior level recruitment needs of the Private Practice sector and, secondly, satisfying the legal recruitment requirements of the internal legal, compliance and transaction management areas of the Investment Banking sector.

In relation to the Private Practice sector, Jon has provided strategic advice on recruitment issues to a significant number of UK and US law firms and has successfully completed assignments ranging from placing lateral teams into major US law firms to individual placements at partner and senior assistant levels to augment existing practices.

In relation to the Investment Banking sector, Jon’s clients have included a number of the leading international investment banks and assignments which he has successfully completed have included searches at European General Counsel and Regional Counsel level, senior Transaction Management roles, Compliance and Desk-based business roles.
