A WordPress job board built only for UK legal careers

A recruitment platform dedicated entirely to the UK legal sector, built to compete with generalist job boards on search, alerts, and employer tools.

Client — LegalJobs.co.uk

The challenge

Generalist job boards don't serve a niche legal job market well. Legal candidates and law firms both needed a platform built specifically around legal roles, with search, alerts, and employer tools sharp enough to compete with national recruitment sites.

The solution

Macrohire built and maintains legaljobs.co.uk on WordPress, structured around role- and city-based job categories — solicitor, barrister, paralegal, conveyancer, and more, browsable by major UK cities — with employer job-posting tools, candidate profiles, saved-job dashboards, job-alert subscriptions, and a careers-advice blog covering topics like SQE preparation.

The results

A dedicated job board positioned specifically for the UK legal sector, distinct from generalist job sites.

Employer tools (job posting) alongside candidate tools (profiles, saved jobs, alerts) on one platform.

An active careers-advice blog supporting SEO and candidate engagement.

"Professional, responsive and extremely knowledgeable. The entire process was handled efficiently and with great attention to detail. I’m very pleased with the service and would highly recommend them."
