We strive to create meaningful personal and professional development opportunities and offer flexible working in support of a good work-life balance.

The firm operates a set of core principles that guides our working practice. It's called 'One Firm, Wherever You Are'.

Equally, there will be individual circumstances in which a different pattern of work is needed, for example as an agreed reasonable adjustment for colleagues with a disability or long-term medical condition.
We believe this approach:
- fits with our values and personality;
- will enhance our performance through greater flexibility;
- advances our ambitions as an inclusive employer - helping you better balance work and family/life commitments;
- offers opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint (travel, office services etc.), a key ambition underpinning our corporate sustainability plan.
