We recruit and develop people who become indispensable to their clients, teams and projects – personalities you want on your team. People interested in their role and their work. Problem solvers with great technical skills and great people skills. Entrepreneurial and team-spirited. Down-to-earth and can-do. Because success relies as much on who you are as how you work.
And for your career, we are a place of excellence and enjoyment. Where you can be you and are rewarded for what you contribute to the firm, because success is something we build together. We expect ambition and the sharing of ideas, because your drive moves the firm forward. We offer exposure, autonomy and responsibility early on, because being experts in more than law creates greater value for you and the firm. And we provide a clear path to progression with the support to succeed, because your growth helps the firm grow too.
Applying to Stephenson Harwood
We believe applying for a new role should be straight forward and transparent. Our application process is designed to be clear and easy to navigate.
We also see this as a mutual experience. While we get to know you, it’s also an opportunity for you to get to know us. We encourage you to ask questions, do your research and explore whether our team, values and culture is right for you. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds, identities, and experiences and are committed to building an inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive.
Our hybrid working approach asks our people to spend 60% of their time in the office, with the option to work elsewhere for the rest of the time.
We want to ensure that everyone can perform at their best during the recruitment process.
If you have a disability, neurodivergence or long-term condition, we offer adjustments at each stage of the recruitment process. Some examples include, but are not limited to, providing the application form in a different format, additional time in time-based exercises, virtual or in-person interviews or a telephone conversation to discuss the recruitment process.
If you have any questions about your application or applying with a disability, please contact hr.recruitment@shlegal.com.
For more information on adjustments or our work on disability inclusion more broadly, view our Disability & Neurodivergence page.
