If you believe that boundaries can be broken and a new, bold and dynamic approach can bring success, you will want to get to know more about us! We recognise the need for forward-thinking, enthusiastic new recruits to ensure the continuing success of our business. "People are key to our success and it's through recruiting the right people that we will continue on a successful path," says Bob Martens, Managing Partner for Belgium. "That's why we're constantly looking for the best and brightest people - people who make things happen, not just for the business but for themselves too."
Our plans for further expansion have put us on track to achieve our vision to make us the leading global business law firm. Our targets are ambitious and we recognise that we can only achieve these through the efforts of our people and a world-class team.
Whether you are a qualified lawyer looking to make a lateral move, a graduate about to embark on your career in law, or would like to work for us in any number of the many business support roles we have, we believe we can offer unsurpassed career opportunities. We are interested in meeting people who are open, down-to-earth, pragmatic, friendly and responsive.
What makes us a workplace of choice? Bob Martens comments: "If we ask people why they have chosen to work here, they always say that it is because we are one of the most successful and fastest-growing legal practices, not only in Belgium but internationally. It is not only our great reputation but also the fantastic working atmosphere here that helps us to attract and retain people" says Bob. "People who join us find a dynamic environment with everyone working together to move forward."
"We are committed to helping our people grow," says Bob Martens, RMP Belgium. "Their success is very much linked to the growth of the practice. We have to grow together to move the business forward." Many people comment on the welcoming atmosphere in both Brussels and Antwerp. "It's a very social, open environment here," says Bob. "There is a great emphasis on teamwork and people really enjoy working here. People are respected and they feel appreciated."
"People are crucial to our business because they provide us with our differentiation in the marketplace," says Sir Nigel Knowles, Joint Chief Executive Officer. "What makes us different is that we have a 'one team' approach," says Sir Nigel. "Everybody is a professional and everyone contributes." For the fourth year running we have been named one of the best companies to work for in the UK (based on a survey related to the work environment, HR policies, workplace practices and company culture). We were also highly ranked in a list of "100 Best Companies to Work for in the EU" published in The Sunday Times in March 2004. We were the first global law firm ever to receive the prestigious HR Excellence Award for our learning and development strategy.
At DLA Piper, mutual respect, responsibility and team work are key to developing careers and building the reputation of the practice and everybody in it.
