Legal

Grow with us

As a fast growing, progressive law firm, we can offer unrivaled career development as well as opportunities for you to develop skills in leadership, business development & people management via our own internal development programmes, staff network groups (Redkite Professionals) & affiliation with external training providers.

We are proud to be an Employer that offers many routes of qualification to our staff, including the traditional training contract scheme, CLC Licensed Conveyancer programme, CILEx apprenticeships and/or CPQ (CILEx) & SQE qualifying work experience opportunities. Likewise, we actively promote the development of Paralegals and have a tailored pathway for unqualified Legal Professionals, setting out the route from Legal Assistant to Legal Advisor to Senior Legal Advisor (QBE).

Solicitors can expect a tailored career development framework to work within and towards – the latter when considering what’s next for them at Redkite. We have a competency framework setting out the expectations of roles from Solicitor through to Partner so that, at every point of promotion consideration, staff know where they stand and where they can go. We also operate a play to your strengths model, whereby colleagues can specialise in the technical, BD or people management pathway. If BD isn’t your thing, we won’t expect that of you and, likewise, if you prefer people management to technical fee-earning, we can develop you according to your preferred career development pathway. We’re about allowing you to be the professional you want to be – not enforcing expectations on you that don’t align with your personality, skill set or working style.

What we want

We are looking for dynamic and team–orientated legal professionals who strive to deliver excellence always. We believe Redkite is a bold organisation, with an ambitious attitude towards growth, service delivery & breadth of services offered. We look for candidates who share this ethos and are interested in having an active role in continuous business expansion – whether that be reviewing internal processes, business developing locally, technically supporting our network of colleagues or leading on business initiatives (to name a few examples).

What you get from us

We are a firm of choice for clients and colleagues alike and we know our success is down to our incredible people, who go above and beyond to support one another. At Redkite, we prioritise facilitating an inclusive and development focused environment for staff to thrive within, ensuring that every Employee has the opportunity to be their full selves in work. We have a Flexible Working Framework in place which all staff members have access to, allowing colleagues to manage their days and diaries according to personal and business requirements. Allowing this freedom and flexibility to our colleagues’ means that:

  • our working parents are able to manage school drop-off’s and pick-up’s, without worry of making it to the literal or home office by 9.
  • our sporting staff can make a lunchtime kick around without fear of squeezing the session into their lunch break.
  • all at Redkite feel they have access to a healthy work-life balance, where presenteesim is a thing of the past & the right to disconnect is Redkite’s current and continued belief.

Your passion and unique skillset is rewarded not only by our competitive salaries & benefits package, but also by our generous fee-earner bonus scheme, great promotion & career development opportunities via the Redkite Career Pathways Framework, a friendly, down-to-earth working environment, company events and social engagement competitions/pieces.
