You’ll be positive, with a strong work ethic, and superb drafting skills.  You’ll have the opportunity to become a trusted advisor to our excellent client base, and will also successfully build relationships with the great people in the team.  You’ll be well supported in your own professional and business development with plenty of learning and development opportunities on offer.
