What are we looking for?
While we are looking for someone who has a strong background in non-contentious work, we are very open to candidates who have a desire to do both non-contentious and contentious work.
We are a growing team and are keen to have a team member who will support the team’s strategic growth plans and offer exceptional client service. |
Our approach to our people is underpinned by our approach to diversity, inclusion and well being. Our ambition is to build a diverse and ambitious workforce that reflects all backgrounds and talents, and a workplace that is supportive and inclusive, recognises and nurtures talent, and has a strong sense of community between colleagues.
This means that everyone who either applies to or works for the firm is treated equally, whatever their gender, age, ethnic origin, nationality, marital status, disability, sexual orientation or religious beliefs. |
