LawFuel says –
Kensington Swan has developed something of an enviable workplace culture, both more relaxed on the one hand and inclusive on the other. Reports indicate that while the firm has had some ups and downs in terms of its development, its culture remains strongly inclusive and less pressured than the ‘Golden Triangle’ firms.
Kensington Swan says –
You will find working at Kensington Swan a rewarding and unique experience. As well as working with great people in a collaborative environment, we focus on acknowledging the contribution you make, and ensure you are provided with benefits that support both your work and personal life.
Summer Clerking –
Kensington Swan runs a summer clerk programme every year from November to February, in both our Auckland and Wellington offices. This is a great opportunity for students in their penultimate (or pre-penultimate, in some cases) year of study, to work in New Zealand’s top law firm alongside some of the best solicitors in the country.
