Our employee benefits are aligned to our key business strategies and support our firm’s values. They are designed to be competitive within the markets we compete in, and are geared to attract, retain and motivate high-performing people. The benefits take into account the diversity of our workforce and are targeted at a broad spectrum of needs. These include:
At Hunt & Hunt, we actively encourage our people to have a fulfilling life beyond the office, as well as a career. We believe that this holistic approach benefits both the individual and our firm. As part of our commitment to work/life balance, we provide eligible employees with a family support allowance on their return from parental leave.
We have also established flexible work practices within our firm, enabling staff to combine personal and family needs with their work commitments. Depending upon individual and firm needs, part-time work and home-based work (ie telecommuting) are available to employees. We also support involvement in the Defence Reserve Forces.
Our lawyers are budgeted realistic and achievable billable hours per year to give them time for networking and professional development, and also to maintain a work/life balance.
We encourage our employees to participate in internal and external seminars, conferences and functions, as part of their ongoing professional development. To underpin a high-performing and diverse culture, we believe it is important for all of our people to have clear goals and expectations and that achievement is well rewarded.
In line with the values of our firm, we provide opportunity, encouragement and recognition whenever possible. Promotion and a meaningful career path within our firm is carefully managed through regular performance reviews and flexible access to partners and managers.
We encourage our employees to gain further qualifications and are committed to supporting staff through career-related study. Study support can take the form of study leave as well as the reimbursement of tuition and compulsory fees.
At Hunt & Hunt, we recognise the importance of teamwork not only in the workplace, but in the numerous extracurricular activities that we are involved in. Social committees are active in each office and organise social events ranging from the staff Christmas party through to theme nights and sporting events. These activities provide staff with an opportunity to get to know their colleagues in an informal environment.
We encourage our employees to refer potential recruits to the firm. Employees who make successful referrals are eligible for cash rewards.
Employees can make arrangements to have laptops and Blackberries salary sacrificed.
