Testimonials
It is great being in a firm which gets cross-office working to feel properly part of a national team and to work with colleagues in other specialisms who are unconstrained by geography.
I consider Fieldfisher to be a progressive firm with an understanding of social values. Im pleased that staff is able to have input in the firms direction and purpose as well as help to shape wider society. Im encouraged to perform by being able to develop in a natural way whilst being supported at every step.
Fieldfisher has managed to nurture a really positive and friendly culture. If they have drive and ambition I would encourage anybody looking for a role here to grab the opportunity.
Since joining Fieldfisher in 2016 I have progressed from an entry-level secretarial role to an experienced executive assistant. This was made possible by a supportive and inclusive working environment that allows staff to progress at a pace that is best suited to them which in turn makes for well-rounded home-grown talent.
The firm strikes a great balance between providing the foundations for success and autonomy of your own growth and development. An insight I would give to potential applicants is that Fieldfisher offers the opportunity for a career and a sense of belonging to a community and not just a job.
