We are different from other law firms in the way we think, work and behave. Global in our outlook and curious by nature, we are often the first to recognize changes in the market and respond with new and better ways to serve clients.
Today the global business community is more interconnected than ever before, and clients need us to work across traditional practice, sector and market lines to mitigate risk and maximize opportunity. Our integrated solutions, underpinned by deep expertise and innovative technology, represent a new frontier for legal advice.
For 10 consecutive years we have been named the world's strongest law firm brand by Acritas. This is because we don't stand still — striving to be the best in all we do and thinking bigger, faster and further on behalf of clients. We know the value of our people in sustaining this success and so we're committed to offering the platform to nurture this talent.
Overseas relationships are the building blocks of our global business and the seamless way in which we work with clients. We will support your career aspirations by offering access to formal mobility programs where possible. These programs give you the chance to travel to other countries, engage with global clients, and develop your networks.
Most formal programs are designed for our lawyers, but we have many examples of Business Services employees who have carved out a career in multiple jurisdictions with the Firm.
Inclusion, Diversity & Equity at Baker McKenzieAt Baker McKenzie, we take a holistic view of Inclusion, Diversity & Equity (ID&E) — asking how we can multiply our impact and deliver for our people, our clients and our industry. Our global community is made up of people from many different backgrounds, creeds, colors, ethnicities, religions, sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and abilities. We embrace and celebrate this human difference by cultivating an inclusive workplace and culture of respect. To ensure we maintain a focused agenda, we have a committee comprised of members from all four of our world regions that is chaired by Kirsty Wilson from our Executive Committee.
Better experiences for our people
We want all of our people to thrive at Baker McKenzie — as professionals, individuals and global citizens. This means giving credit where it's due and incentivizing inclusive behaviors, providing equal access to opportunities for career progression, being a flexible workplace, and offering an intellectually rich and supportive environment.
Better outcomes for our clients
In an increasingly interconnected business community, opportunities and risks spill across different markets, sectors and areas of law. Access to the brightest legal minds, who bring diverse and connected perspectives to complex legal and commercial questions, is key to business success. We believe ID&E unlocks innovation and enables stronger guidance and seamless solutions.
Driving change together
Improving ID&E in our profession, and across the business community, cannot be done in silos. Sustainable progress requires partnership. As well as collaborating with clients on specific mentorship, sponsorship and education projects, we join clients and peers in supporting associations and community initiatives focused on ID&E around the world, and contribute data and ideas to advance ID&E progress.
