Reading’s Harrison Clark Rickersbys has marked its commitment to investing in people as the firm made a record 30 promotions on 1 April.

Deborah Brumwell, HR Director and Head of the Promotions Group, said: “Our staff are our greatest asset, so our career development initiatives such as offering international secondments, one to one and group mentoring, ‘Fast Track’, early contact with clients, and business development training are an important part of why our people choose to stay with HCR.

“Investing in our people is not only the right thing to do, but also the smart thing, and large promotion rounds like the one announced today are the result of a great deal of hard work from some very dedicated colleagues. We wish all of those promoted the very best of luck on the next step of their journey.”

HCR’s Reading office is one of 10 across the UK, and the firm employs more than 800 staff and partners. It provides a complete spectrum of legal services to both business and private clients, with a global reach through its network of independent law firms, LawExchange International.

Managing Partner Rod Thomas added: “To attract and retain the best talent from all backgrounds, we have not only embraced Smart Working practices but also invested significantly to ensure that HCR continues to be a place where anyone can thrive and we attract people interested in having a career with a different type of law firm.

“Despite the firm’s increasing size, the energy, enthusiasm and friendliness of our people continues to be one of the reasons people want to join the firm.”
