For Consultants

Work on your terms.
With clients that value what you bring.

We believe great lawyers should have more choice. As an Embark Consultant, you’re in control of when, where and how you work — and which opportunities you say yes to.

We’ll connect you with forward-thinking clients and meaningful work, while offering support, transparency and community along the way.

                                                                   You’re independentbut you’re not alone.

Frequently  Asked Questions

What kind of lawyers do you work with?

We work with experienced legal professionals who want flexibility and fulfilment in their careers. Most of our consultants have trained at top law firms and hold significant in house experience. Our bench of excellence includes paralegals, junior – mid level lawyers all the way through to GC / Head of Legal level consultants. What unites them is a desire to work differently — on their own terms, without compromising quality or access to challenging and rewarding legal work.

What type of work can I expect?

Our assignments vary widely, from short-term cover and overflow support to longer-term secondments and strategic projects. We work across practice areas, geographies and sectors — including commercial, corporate, regulatory, employment, real estate and more — with clients in both private practice and in-house.

Can I work flexibly or remotely?

Yes. Flexibility is core to how we work. Many of our roles are remote or hybrid, and we’re open with clients about finding solutions that work for everyone. Whether you're looking for part-time work, specific days or hours, or fully remote roles, we aim to match you with assignments that align with your preferences.

Do I choose which assignments to take on?

Absolutely. You’ll have full visibility over available opportunities and complete control over which ones you accept. We’ll never push roles that aren’t right for you — we’re here to support, not to sell. We go a step further and aim to align you with the perfect environment too in line with your preferences whether that be the type of culture, size or structure of the organisations you most enjoy supporting.

How do we support our Embark Consultant Community?

As a consultant, you're independent — but you won’t feel isolated. We stay in regular contact, check in during assignments, and offer community-building events and networking opportunities. You’ll also have a direct line to our senior leadership team whenever you need guidance or want to share feedback.
