As the partner with overall responsibility for graduate recruitment at Dehns, it is my job to ensure that we recruit the outstanding attorneys of the future, who will enable us to continue providing our clients with the highest level of service and help us drive our business forward.

To achieve this, it is vital that we find people with the perfect combination of ability, ambition and personality. All of our trainees are highly qualified individuals, with excellent technical abilities and communication skills alike, who are driven by a desire to work in the field of innovation and committed to providing excellent service to our clients. At Dehns, we are very focused on a strong team ethic and believe that sharing experiences, expertise and intellectual assets is vital to ensuring continued business success.

Dehns is dedicated to training, and is very proud of its reputation as probably the leading firm in the UK in terms of our training record; we have a well-established history of training winners of national prizes awarded to those achieving the highest levels of success in the professional qualifying exams. However, it is not all about exams, and our professional staff enjoy a healthy work-life balance and many opportunities to socialise with their colleagues, both within and outside of Dehns. Most importantly, we pride ourselves on fostering a friendly atmosphere within the firm, as we strongly believe that this, combined with a shared ambition for professional excellence, is vital to the success of the firm.
