I’ve had a really positive experience with Owen Reed. I was a little nervous at first, but they quickly built genuine trust and rapport with me, which made me feel comfortable and confident in choosing to work with them.

They placed me in a temporary role in less than 24 hours, which honestly exceeded my expectations and was amazing. Communication has been clear and consistent throughout, with quick responses and every question answered properly. They truly stick to their word, and you can clearly see how keen they are to help and to find a placement that best suits your needs.

A special thank you to Archie, who was my main point of contact at the start. She has been friendly, professional, and incredibly supportive. I also want to mention Macey, who I am now mostly in contact with. She has been just as helpful, approachable, and reliable, always making sure I feel supported and kept in the loop while I am still in my placement.

I would definitely recommend Owen Reed to anyone looking for a trustworthy and supportive agency.

I cannot speak highly enough of the service I received from Owen Reed. Special thanks goes to Jess, who was exceptional in working tirelessly to ensure that I was matched to the right job, and never gave up on me. Jess was amazing, putting in a lot of effort and time in supporting and preparing me for interviews, which has paid off as I've accepted a job offer from a US law firm.

I would also like to thank Archie who was also very welcoming, supportive and made me feel completely relaxed when visiting their offices.

All in all I highly recommend Owen Reed for their professionalism, knowledge, honesty and support!. Thanks Jess! 🙂

I have recently made the move to London, and have been working with Owen Reed to find a new role. The communication that they have provided, and the prep that they gave me for my interview has been top-tier, resulting in an offer from the first firm I interviewed at within the space of a couple of weeks. Archie and Anna work hard to make sure that you are placed in a role that align with your experience, and they have been so supportive in my search!

Fantastic team of legal recruitment consultants! Macey and Archie really take the time to get to know you as a person and understand your needs and they were very supportive throughout the whole process.

Cannot recommend more!! Archie Somasegaran has been absolutely amazing all throughout, such a genuine, lovely person and even better at her job. She made it a priority to support and push me to where I need to be, it’s not a performance she genuinely loves her job and being the one to help. I will forever be grateful and wish her nothing but the best🫶

I had an absolutely brilliant experience at Owen Reed, and a huge part of that was down to Macey. From start to finish, she was outstanding; professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was perfect. She has such a natural way of putting you at ease. Macey clearly knows her stuff, but what really sets her apart is how much she cares about you as an individual. Every detail was thought through, every question was answered properly, and she went above and beyond to make sure I left feeling confident and looked after. She’s an absolute credit to Owen Reed.

I also want to give a big shout-out to Archie, who was equally impressive. She was friendly and approachable. Archie was always happy to help, offered honest advice, and worked seamlessly alongside Macey, you can tell they’re a strong team. Both of their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile really didn’t go unnoticed.

Overall, the service from both Macey and Archie was exceptional. It’s rare to find a place where you feel genuinely valued, but Owen Reed absolutely delivers thanks to staff like them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Owen Reed to anyone and if you get the chance to be helped by Macey and Archie, you’re in very safe hands.

I can’t recommend Owen Reed highly enough. They placed me in a temporary Legal PA role, and thanks to their excellent match and support, that role led to a permanent position.

I would personally like to thank Macey Rothon and Archie Somasegaran for their amazing support & kindness. From the outset, they were professional, responsive and genuinely invested in finding the right fit for me. They took the time to understand my experience and career goals, kept me well informed throughout the process, and were supportive at every stage.

Owen Reed truly stand out for their expertise in legal recruitment and their personal approach. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity they helped create and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a legal PA role.
