**Why work for Reeds Solicitors?**

At Reeds we do things The Reeds Way - a set of foundational principles that not only tell us how we run our business, but why.

Externally, it governs how we look after our clients. For example, we have developed our Service Pledge, and our whole firm works as a team to make sure we deliver on this every time.

The Reeds Way also governs and guides how we try to add value to the communities in which we operate.

Internally, the Reeds Way governs our culture, the Reeds working environment, and the working life and career that we offer to all Reeds people.

- We offer a transparent and fair career development structure with opportunities for all lawyers and fee-earners to progress through the stages and become an Associate, Senior Associate and hopefully Partner;
- All our people - and that means all our people - constantly undergo training and development via The ‘Reeds Academy’ which helps everyone achieve their career goals and get to where they want to be professionally, and to enhance their skills and knowledge;
- We encourage all our staff to think about business development and look for growth opportunities. We are always willing to listen to, and potentially invest in, new ideas;
- We offer competitive salary and benefit packages and have a transparent annual review process which considers your whole contribution to your team and the Firm, not just billing figures;
