Seedlegals are a UK-based scaleup with a SAAS platform designed for startups. Their service automates legals such as shareholder agreements, employee options schemes and fundraising. We spoke to Anthony Rose, CEO, about our partnership.

🚨 THE CHALLENGE

  • They had no internal team and needed to double their headcount within 12 months, from a standing start of 72 employees.
  • Cost per hire was £7,000, with an over-reliance on agencies.
  • Time to Hire was an average of 12 weeks

⚒️ OUR SOLUTION

Move reset SeedLegals’ entire recruitment process to ensure consistency, inclusivity and scalability.

We introduced Hiring Manager training and onboarding to the new process and structured, persona-driven hiring manager intake meetings became the standard.

Questions Banks with SeedLegals core values woven into them and Answer Guidelines established to create standardisation and fair assessments

Sourcing: Move also launched sourcing campaigns utilising sales methodologies with a multi-step cadence enabling our team to attract and engage top talent. Our Acquisition Specialist ensured hyper-personalised candidate engagement at scale, while our Talent Partner ensured SeedLegals Hiring Managers were informed and guided, quarter-backing the hiring process.
