We provided an additional layer of support by tapping into a passive candidate network, covering a broad scope of the legal and privacy market relevant to the location and skillset.

Search Reports
As part of our process, we were able to share the data of each search. This included the candidates contacted, candidates spoken with, the candidates we spoke with that we didn’t send and why. The feedback from each search was provided to ensure competitive alignment to market conditions.

To best provide a solution to the challenges Mastercard was facing, we dedicated a comprehensive resourcing team to the account to ensure we could be efficiently, and effectively resource for the positions while still maintaining a high level of service and detail.
Diversity
After a consultation of understanding diversity at Mastercard, we learnt about the Diversity focus areas for hiring across the Legal teams and aligned this to searches.

Testimonial
‘Lawrence Harvey are great partners. Not only do they have an excellent sense of the market but they seem to have a secret repository of remarkable, undiscovered talent who fit your needs on day one. The privacy market has been incredibly competitive the past few years and on multiple occasions when we thought that we would never find someone, suddenly Lawrence Harvey sends up the exact candidate we need, already pre-vetted and prepared to meet with us.’
