We’re excited to announce that we have welcomed two new consultants to our specialist team and made three promotions as part of Realm’s continuing growth strategy.
Kathryn McGeoghegan joins us as a Consultant specialising in the recruitment of commercial insurance, costs and legal support professionals across the North West. She previously worked in the internal recruitment team at the global law firm DWF. Before moving into recruitment, Kathryn worked as a paralegal for six years, handling defendant motor work claimant personal injury claims. Her joining Realm signals the business’s expansion into costs recruitment, further growing our specialist market expertise and service offering to lawyers and law firms.
Nonso Okonyia also joins as an Associate Consultant specialising in the recruitment of litigation lawyers across Yorkshire. He has joined Realm from another legal recruitment business after previously working within a law firm. He has a Master’s degree in Advanced Drafting and Criminology.
Realm’s new hires come shortly after three members of our existing team were promoted. Support Team Lead Rebecca Hopwood has progressed to Head of Support; Family Law Recruitment Specialist Michaela Baddeley has been promoted from Consultant to Associate Consultant and within the team’s marketing department, Emma Marsh has been promoted to Associate Marketing Executive.
Managing director Duane Cormell comments:
“I’m thrilled to welcome Kathryn and Nonso to Realm. Kathryn’s joining will enable us to further branch out into the recruitment of costs lawyers and Nonso’s arrival will help us solidify our presence within the litigation market in Yorkshire.
“I’m also really pleased to have been able to promote Rebecca, Michaela and Emma. I’ve been really impressed with how they have applied themselves to their professional development over the last 12 months and all three have made a fantastic contribution to their divisions within the business.”
