Liam Richardson relocates to London headquarters

After 13 years in Hong Kong, Pure’s Liam Richardson has relocated to the UK as Managing Director of the legal and compliance practices. Formerly Managing Director of the firm’s APAC business, Richardson has extensive experience in managing and growing successful recruitment teams.

He will be tasked with further establishing the firm’s footprint in legal and compliance recruitment across the UK and wider Europe.

Regarding the new move, Liam comments “I am excited to be returning to what is one of the world’s most sophisticated and diverse marketplaces and look forward to servicing our clients’ legal and compliance staffing needs as part of a global, coordinated strategy.”

Pure is excited about the new addition to their London office and is looking forward to Liam bringing his expertise to our UK legal and compliance teams.

Chris Nelson, CEO – Pure, comments “Liam’s track record of building out recruitment businesses is well proven. During his tenure in Hong Kong, he grew Pure’s business, strategically establishing practice areas, initially in legal, then adding finance, tax, compliance, risk, HR and more recently, technology to the Asia profile. This growth transformed our Asia branch from a legal-only recruitment business to a specialist recruitment agency operating in 7 different practice areas.”

Pure UK is complemented by offices in Hong Kong, Singapore, New York and Berlin, all operating across commerce & industry, financial services and professional services; a platform that means that Pure offers a truly global service.
