Claudia Santillo

Claudia began her career within legal recruitment in 1999 as an Executive Search Consultant with a niche headhunting organisation, dealing with projects across the UK and overseas. In order to broaden her skill set, she joined an International recruitment consultancy where she successfully managed and developed a team of contingent consultants who were responsible for placing lawyers across the Midlands, South West and South East. In 2005 she was invited to join a new consultancy to utilise her skills and experience to assist in developing the business.

She is experienced in placing lawyers from NQ level, through to Partners and advising on team acquisitions and mergers she is well placed to provide valuable market knowledge and advice to enhance your career.

She set up Santillo Consulting, having gained extensive experience across a broad range of sourcing techniques including search, advertised selection, and database management; she has developed a profile and reputation within the legal market which is second to none.

Having specialised within this field for 11 years and experienced extreme changes within the legal market she recognises the need to provide every client with a service tailored to their needs and the importance of forging a strong, trusting relationship within which solutions can be found.

She works tirelessly to ensure that her philosophy and high standards are reflected throughout Santillo Consulting, taking great care to recruit and train only the best consultants who share this vision.

Claudia is also an active member of Birmingham Future and is currently Chair of the BYPY committee, having previously won the Recruitment & Training Category.

In her very rare spare time Claudia enjoys keeping fit, horse riding, socialising with friends/family and satisfying her passion for shopping.
