What makes us a workplace of choice?If we ask people why they have chosen to work here, they say that it is not only because of our excellent reputation in the legal market in Russia but also because we are one of the most successful and fastest-growing legal organisations. People who join us discover a dynamic environment with everyone working together to move forward.
"People are crucial to our business because they provide us with our differentiation in the marketplace," says Nigel Knowles, Joint Chief Executive Officer. "What makes us different is that we have a 'one team' approach," says 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 legal services organisation ever to receive the prestigious HR Excellence Award for our learning and development strategy.
As part of our team, mutual respect, responsibility and teamwork are key to developing careers and building the reputation of the organisation and everybody in it.
