    Careers at Hesketh Henry

    Initiative, excellence, teamwork and team spirit

    Home / Careers
    With a track record spanning back to 1865, we have built a reputation for providing excellent, practical legal advice. The firm's modern approach to legal practice has served to increase its profile as an employer of choice.

    Hesketh Henry has low staff turnover relative to industry benchmarks. The major attraction of working with us is the range of demanding and varied work. Staff work autonomously with appropriate supervision and good training.

    Our people consider they work in a friendly positive culture. They also consider there is support for helping people find the right fit at work and the optimum balance of work and life.

    We have a well-established client base with a cross-section of corporate and private clients, nationally and internationally. We are a full service law firm and all our solicitors have the opportunity to work with partners on challenging, cutting edge transactions and areas of law.

    We encourage individuals to develop their potential in a collaborative environment. This means that individual initiative and excellence is underpinned by teamwork and team spirit.

    Working at Hesketh Henry is much more than simply a professional career. A thoroughly professional environment with ongoing training, close supervision and supportive leadership is enhanced by policies that promote a healthy balance between work and life commitments.
