Shoosmiths voted ‘Best Employer’ for 13th consecutive year

The Edinburgh office of Shoosmiths is celebrating being hailed as a Legal Week ‘Best Employer’ for the 13th consecutive year.

A survey of UK, City and international firms was undertaken by Legal Week Intelligence, the publication’s research arm.

Respondents from each firm were asked to rate various aspects of their professional lives, both in importance and their current level of satisfaction.

Shoosmiths scored highly for the “level of cooperation and teamwork within my team’ and for the ‘prestige/brand of my firm”.

Shoosmiths chief executive, Claire Rowe said: “Shoosmiths’ culture is truly unique and the collaboration between teams allows us to enhance our client experience by tapping into the great strength and depth of our teams.

“We also have an extremely recognisable brand and because of this, and the exceptional expertise we possess, we have been chosen to advise leading global and UK-based businesses across multiple sectors.”

Janette Speed, head of office in Edinburgh, added: “The reputation of Shoosmiths in Scotland continues to grow and we have enjoyed some impressive client wins across all sectors over the past couple of years in particular.”
