If and when agency involvement is required, our Practice Manager will contact its nominated agency directly to request assistance.

No agency fees will apply, or be due, in relation to unsolicited submissions of CVs received from recruitment agencies. If an agency submits an unsolicited CV to any partner or employee of the Firm, CooperBurnett will not accept any liability for commissions, fees or other charges if the Firm subsequently employs that candidate directly or through another agency. Where an agency’s correspondence contains a disclaimer indicating otherwise, CooperBurnett’s policy will prevail in this regard.
