Job summary

Why is this role important and how does it fit into the team, department & wider firm?

This role supports the Events team to produce both internal and external events, digital and in-person, working closely with the Business Development Management Team and each of the Target Market Groups (TMGs) to produce high quality, strategy focused events.

The Events Assistant (EA) role is significant to the success of the Events Team function in that they are required to do the majority of the 'business as usual' tasks, ensuring the two Executives, Senior Executive and Manager are appropriately supported so that the team can work together to produce strategic events which support both the TMG objectives and those of the whole firm.

What is the working practice for this role?
The firm operates a set of core principles that guides our working practice. It's called 'One Firm, Wherever You Are'.

You might have enjoyed working from home and would like to split your time between there and the office/ other work locations.

Others may be eager to return to the office on a more regular basis.

We believe that a regular level of in-person contact is an important way to build connections with your colleagues, enhancing knowledge and idea sharing and enabling all of us to benefit from the vibrant office culture Browne Jacobson has to offer.

Our expectation is that,
on average, you'll work from home for no more than three days per week, with the remainder of your time either spent with your colleagues in the office or working from other locations as work demands dictate, e.g.

courts, client offices, conferences etc. This is an average expectation over time and we know that there will be variations from week to week.

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.
