Working at Fieldfisher

We are not just a UK firm with offices in Europe. We are a European law firm at our core. While our head office is in London, we are spreading across Europe at a rate. In addition to our UK, China and Silicon Valley presence we have offices in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Poland and Spain. Look out for more to come.

We are growing fast. With 1,800 people across 25 offices in 13 countries you might expect an impersonal office culture but you will find a homely, family feel even in the largest offices. You won't find cake listed in our benefits but perhaps it should be. Regular treats in the kitchens, monthly office buffet lunches and social events throw everyone together.

Fieldfisher and you - a match made for success
Hopefully you decide we're right for you and we decide you're right for us. Quality on both sides. Across all our offices and jurisdictions are market-leading practices in corporate/M&A, finance, real estate, energy and natural resources, technology and life sciences.

We play with the big boys, counting as clients large corporations including major technology firms, pharmaceutical and life sciences companies, energy suppliers, infrastructure companies, global banks and financial institutions. Collaboration is not just something we talk about in our Values statement (although it is one of our Values). Our approach with clients is to work with them not just for them, maintaining a constant dialogue, tailoring our services to their needs and integrating cutting-edge legal technologies into our advice where we can - but only where we think it adds value.

The legal bit
We aim to ensure equality of opportunity and we are actively working towards improving the diversity of our staff. All applications will only be considered on merit and the applicant's suitability to meet the requirements of the role.

Characters welcome, don’t leave your personality at home…

We’re a firm with real entrepreneurial drive and we don’t believe in squashing people’s individuality. We want you to use your unique talents and experiences to help the firm grow. You can only do that by being yourself and working closely and collaboratively with people throughout the firm. 

We’ll give you bespoke support to develop your own career. Whether that’s through allowing you to “access all areas” across the firm, funding you through training for professional development qualifications, or making sure you have a structured career plan, we’ll make sure your talents are being nurtured.

Fieldfisher's benefits package is designed to enable all colleagues to thrive in an inclusive and supportive environment. These benefits range from private health insurance, life assurance & income protection, flexi-gym discounts, season ticket loans, bike-to-work loans and much more.

All of our UK offices have diverse teams of partners, fee earners and business services staff. We're all aboard the 'hot desking' bandwagon, offering modern, open plan workspaces that encourages your development as well as a sense of camaraderie. 

With Summer and Winter parties, a dedicated Ministry of Fun committee, Friday treats and several different employee networks, there is plenty of opportunity to develop your network and have some fun.
