Burness Paull reserves the right to close this vacancy early if a sufficient number of applications are received for this role. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible. Closing Date: 28 November 2025 At the heart of Burness Paull is our independence. It’s this that gives us the licence to shape our business and culture in the sustainable way we want to, supporting the needs of our people, our clients, our wider community and the environment. It means freedom to pursue a philosophy of always being human in attitude and high-performing in approach. For our people that means recognising everyone is different and valuing those differences. A culture that celebrates openness and where genuine advice and relationships are championed. An environment that encourages everyone to aim for success by being the best version of themselves. And because we value the contribution that every one of our team makes, we make sure everyone is rewarded over and above the usual benefits you'd expect from a leading law firm. That means bonus schemes for all employees, family friendly policies that are stand out in the market, and a range of health & wellbeing initiatives that take a holistic approach to supporting colleagues. We set the bar high. Our clients and people love that.
