As Coronavirus spreads and governments advise on safety precautions globally, organisations will all face resource issues – this may be due to sickness, caring responsibilities or because the level of work has increased as teams are diverted to dealing with pressing COVID-19 related matters. 

Konexo has a highly flexible pool of lawyers, HR consultants, corporate secretarial professionals and compliance consultants that could be utilised quickly and effectively on either a full time or part time basis. Our candidates are experienced contractors who are used to setting up quickly and working remotely with limited supervision. We can provide individuals or set up teams who can work alongside your in-house resource.
 
Our resources could be used to:

  • cover sickness absences;
  • advise on projects/urgent work related or unrelated to COVID-19;
  • cover gaps as you divert your team to more pressing matters. 

Virtual recruitment and remote working

All candidates have been screened and assessed by our team and Partners prior to joining our panel. At this unprecedented time, Konexo is also able to help navigate the hiring and induction process using technology and virtual on-boarding solutions, wherever possible.

Using remote support consultants, we can support you with:

  • one consultant or a small pool of approved consultants available on demand
  • a variety of ways of utilising our consultants. For example, on an ad hoc basis or on fixed hours per week/month that can be rolled over
  • tracking of work via timesheets and MI to understand when/how support is given
  • consultants who have Konexo email addresses/PLC to carry out work
  • a wide range of skillsets across all legal specialisms

Listen to our - The Evolution of Interim Legal Resourcing - podcast

Around the world our clients, peers and colleagues are adapting to and adopting new methods of working which includes the use of interim lawyers, operating remotely.
