What can you expect from a career at Fox Williams
Our culture is what sets us apart from other firms. We believe in the value of creating friendly, strong relationships with each other.
We trust and support each other personally and professionally, whatever our role. We work collaboratively as a team and understand that we each have a responsibility to uphold an inclusive working environment.
Fox Williams offers a different opportunity to develop your career. Our smaller size enables everyone to learn and grow from the high-quality work we deliver.
Our partners and more experienced colleagues proactively support and invest their time in the growth of others.
From day one and from the most junior level up, you will work with partners, senior colleagues as well as clients to develop knowledge quickly and get a comprehensive understanding of the commercial realities facing our clients.
As your career develops with us, we encourage you to develop your own specialism. This is underpinned by dedicated technical training, a broad professional development programme and supported by mentoring and sponsorship opportunities.
Our 60-40 hybrid working approach allows our people to decide where to work so that they can carry out their roles effectively, to both maximise performance and maintain optimal wellbeing.
We understand that we are all different and encourage everyone to balance their work and personal commitments in a way that works for them, supports their colleagues, and delivers great client service.
Open communication with each other about our life events, working patterns and personal priorities are essential to working together effectively at Fox Williams. We all have the opportunity to build our careers alongside our personal commitments.
One of our core principles is to be a friendly firm with a sociable, supportive culture. We like to get to know one another on a personal level and have a series of organised events as well as social clubs including:
Staff wellbeing: We have a wide-ranging programme of events to raise awareness of the importance of mental, physical and financial well-being and optimal nutrition awareness.
Working parents: We understand the need for parents to balance family obligations and we have matched our enhanced shared parental pay with our enhanced maternity pay.
We want to create and maintain a more diverse workforce which represents the city of London and our clients.
Research has shown that more diverse and inclusive workplaces lead to a happier and more engaged workforce as well as greater innovation and creativity. A more diverse workforce encourages fresh thinking, new perspectives and different approaches to our clients’ issues.
As such, everyone at Fox Williams is expected to uphold an inclusive environment for Our People, while actively promoting and encouraging its development. We treat each other as we would want to be treated: with respect.
