Professional development

At Herbert Smith, individuals and teams across our support services are encouraged to be proactive and take responsibility for their own development. The firm helps all employees to create a personal development plan linked to career goals at both a personal and professional level.

With a keen eye for technical excellence, the firm encourages voluntary study in subjects relevant to your work area. This can be supported in a number of ways, such as funding for courses and books, study support and time off for exams.

In many circumstances the firm will pay for relevant professional subscriptions and fully supports the attendance of professional networking opportunities.
