Our professional academies framework is designed to equip colleagues across the firm with the skills, confidence and connections to thrive and reach the next stage in
their career.

Over the last year, we launched Business Services Academies and expanded inclusive career development programmes: Path to Partnership and New Partner Transition.

These programmes (underpinned by our Business Skills Curriculum for each level of experience and role) provide structured development aligned with Fieldfisher’s culture and strategic goals for our people across the firm. They equip our legal professionals as they progress through their careers and support our Business Services teams in delivering operational excellence.

Each academy reinforces Fieldfisher’s values and prepares participants to contribute to the firm’s growth and client success by connecting with peers across offices and practice groups This enables cross-team relationships and knowledge sharing through a variety of formats.

We believe that investing in our people through this approach and programmes is a key part of our demonstrable commitment to putting our people and their personal and professional development and growth first.

Fieldfisher Academies empowering talent across the firm

Investment in people’s development is a vital concept for any business that wants to grow and for any individuals who want their careers to develop. The two senior-level leadership programmes I have attended while at Fieldfisher have unquestionably helped me with my transition to partnership and to realise some of my most significant career goals.

Having progressed through all three Fee Earner/ Legal Professionals Academies and now the Pathway to Partnership Programme over my 10 years at Fieldfisher, these
development opportunities have been instrumental in my career growth.
For me, the firm’s commitment to structured, career-long development demonstrates that investing in people isn’t just good practice - it’s essential for sustainable growth, both for individuals and the firm.
