Research & Insights

Enterprises spend valuable time and resources looking for the right fit for their legal team. The immediacy of their need often warrants a tough decision — between highly skilled professionals and alignment with the values of the organisation.
We believe employers should not have to choose between capability and cultural fit.
Vahura was founded to eliminate barriers between visionary organisations and professional talent in the legal sector. With over 1800 positions successfully closed, Vahura today is the leading specialist in legal recruitment for corporates and law firms.
We specialise in finding suitable candidates for manager and head positions for the in-house legal teams of corporates. In the past, we have helped develop entire in-house legal departments. For law firms, investment funds, and consulting firms, we recruit for positions at the mid to senior levels.
Over the years we have extended our capabilities beyond the legal function and into the adjacent functions of policy, compliance, tax, risk, and governance. Our functional areas of focus are:

Public Policy and Government Affairs
Compliance and Risk

Corporate Secretarial
Tax
Legal Operations
Intellectual Property Rights

We connect people and create opportunities.
We follow a strong ethical code to meet the needs of both, our clients as well as talent without compromising on the interests of either. The three principles of our approach are:
Professionalism
Aided by our large network of 40,000+ professionals, we conduct a thorough and methodical background check from both a client and candidate perspective. We recommend only once we are assured of the reputation and suitability of the candidate.
Discretion
We hold ourselves to the highest level of confidentiality, even within our team, to ensure no conflict of interest.
Consultative Approach
We don’t see ourselves as matchmakers but partners, for both our clients and applicants. We apply a thorough, knowledge-driven approach, of the individual, the client, and the domain, before finalising our recommendation for the right fit.
