When you join, we’ll expect you to take personal responsibility for managing your career. Think of it as a deal.
Your part of the deal needs you to be flexible and work hard, often to tight deadlines and at times with long hours. If you join a part of our business that requires the successful completion of a professional qualification, we expect you to commit the significant time and effort required to pass these demanding exams. Whichever team you join, you’ll need to be proactive in building your networks and relationships, often leading to interesting work and projects. Our side of the deal provides you with the expertise, tools and teams who will support and encourage you.
