Your Career and Development

Business Teams play a crucial role in driving the firm forward and contributing to our success. Our Business Teams Curriculum provides a framework for staff development, offering market leading courses and ensuring that you have the opportunity to broaden and deepen your professional skills.

As a coordinator, advisor or manager in Business Teams you have a programme of development available to you which is flexible to the requirements of your role and your personal development objectives. As part of the programme, you’ll attend milestone courses at each stage of your career, as well as being offered tailored elective courses, coaching and online support.

From your first day, we encourage you to explore the opportunities and calendar of programmes – all designed to help you to develop your professional skills and know-how.

The 100:100 commitment is at the heart of our approach. Both you and your manger take responsibility to meet regularly and provide each other with feedback. You take equal accountability for the success of the outcomes. Once the regularity of conversation is agreed, you take responsibility for setting the agenda, taking time to prepare for the different conversations that you might want to have at different points throughout the year. 

Our approach is designed to support a continuous cycle of open and honest conversations. The intention to make it work for you and your manager, it is designed to be flexible to meet different needs for people doing different jobs, at different levels, and throughout their career with Linklaters.
