Our mission is to be the go-to Agency for legal professionals across all developing nations.

We uplift our legal communities by securing them better jobs, better salaries and better people/processes for their businesses.

The GRM Group understands that one of the most important developing markets is flexibility.
You need strategies and solutions that are resistant to all the drama that a growing economy will throw at your business.
Combining this with acquiring the correct talent, and deploying an individually tailored strategy, alongside deep forecasting data and analysis is where partnering with GRM puts you ahead of your competition, and prepares you to compete, both locally and globally.
VISION
Our vision is to assist every law firm and legal professional, across emerging markets, and therefore become the most successful legal talent management agency across all developing countries.
VALUES
Our values are genuine. And you will feel them in every dealing you have with a member of our award-winning teams.
We tackle each day and every project with courage. GRM’ers are encouraged to believe in themselves, and those around them. Be brave in what you do each day.
Always ask questions, always be curious about the markets we serve, the people we serve, the work we do, the companies who pay us - be curious about the world, the economies and politics that govern emerging markets
Always act with humility, and stay strong to your beliefs - but when we are wrong, we hold our hands up and try to improve. Be a positive, open person.
The way we deliver our services should always be creative, we take each person and each business we serve and look at what they really need, and then we get creative. One size does not fit all.
We aim to be masters of everything we do - and deliver our services in a world-class fashion, every, single time.

Borrowing the initials of the founding partners (Green, Roberts, McIntosh), GRM was registered as a business in Hong Kong.
Trading under a different brand name, legal recruitment started in the midst of the global financial crisis. Primarily focussed on placing lawyers in HK and emerging Asian markets.
After just three short years we were awarded AsiaMoney’s Headhunter of the Year in HK for excellence of service in the legal industry.
After again being recognised by our peers for our work across Asia, we were also shortlisted for excellence awards in Australia and the UK, reflecting our commitment and expertise in helping legal teams grow and legal professionals move to dream careers, around the world.
2021 saw us complete our first projects in Senegal, Cote D’Ivoire, Namibia, Botswana and Tanzania.
We’ve rebranded to reflect our maturity, our appreciation for our market and to reflect our embrace of the next generation. Whilst paying homage to our past through Asian artist-inspired fonts and colours, our brand displays elegance, our technologically focussed approach, traditional values, and our knowledgable and personable approach. The GRM Group truly is your catalyst for Growth and Innovation in today's ever-changing legal landscape.
