- Flexible hours: they are happy to hear from part-time and full-time applicants and will discuss working hours with the right candidate, to find an arrangement that suits you and the firm.
- Genuine work/life balance: they appreciate that there's a life outside of work, and don’t expect you to work over your time or be available out of hours. They understand if you need to fit in appointments, childcare or other commitment and foster an environment of mutual respect and trust.
- Billing: They don’t set unreasonable daily billing hours or expect employees to work over their paid hours.
- Make an impact: They believe in hiring great people and giving them an opportunity to excel. They are a collaborative firm and welcome ideas from all their teams. You will work closely with the rest of their team, including their Principal Solicitor.
