Accounting and advisory for not-for-profits
Clarity that movesyou forward.
We help not-for-profits and growing organisations make sense of their numbers, meet their obligations, and move forward with confidence – so boards and leaders can focus on impact, not paperwork.
Who we are
More than recruiters. Career partners for life.
Wolf & Williams exists to bring calm, clarity, and confidence to legal recruitment. With decades inside the Australian legal market, we understand the people, the firms, and the nuance that sits behind every successful move.
Our work is shaped by long-term relationships, honest guidance, and a deep respect for confidentiality. Whether advising on a discreet transition or building a high-performing legal team, we focus on outcomes that last well beyond a single placement.
Our services
Specialist legal recruitment, delivered with perspective.
We support lawyers and legal teams across private practice, in-house, contract, and executive search. Each engagement is grounded in insight, not transactions.
Private Practice Recruitment
We place lawyers across all major Australian cities and practice areas, from associates to partners. Our insight into firm culture, structure, and progression ensures accurate, considered introductions.
In-House Legal Recruitment
We work with organisations across nearly every industry, placing legal counsel through to general counsel and company secretary roles, always with a clear understanding of commercial context.
Contract & Interim Lawyers
We are a leading contract legal recruitment firm, supporting both law firms and in-house teams with high-performing interim talent across all levels and disciplines.
Executive Search
We conduct retained searches for partners, general counsel, and senior legal leaders, managing sensitive processes with discretion, rigour, and care.
Relocating Lawyers
Through our global network, we support Australian lawyers returning home and foreign-qualified lawyers relocating to Australia, providing clarity on pathways, timing, and opportunity.
Our approach
Depth over volume. Trust over transactions.
We know the market, we know the people, and we understand what both clients and candidates need to make confident decisions. Our advice is shaped by decades of experience and access to real-time market intelligence, including insights from the Wolf & Williams Library.
Our reputation matters more than any single placement. Every interaction is guided by trust, wisdom, and confidentiality, with a focus on adding genuine value at every stage of the process.
