Careers at Foot Anstey

Inclusive culture. Serious support.

Our culture

We are serious about our culture – not simply because it makes for a better and more enjoyable place to work; but because it helps us all to perform to our very best. We encourage innovation and entrepreneurialism, and rely on a strong sense of collaboration to ensure we deliver great results for our clients.

Our culture is critical to creating a great sense of wellbeing for our people. New joiners never fail to comment on the friendliness of the atmosphere and the very real support you get from all across the firm from day one; and it’s this refreshingly human approach that our people – and our clients – value so much.

What our people say

One of the real differentiators of working at Foot Anstey is the collaboration piece. We collaborate really closely across the Partnership and within teams, and it makes my job more enjoyable.

Katie-Jane Rees Partner

One of my favourite things about working at Foot Anstey is the people. It’s always a collegiate environment, everyone is really friendly and approachable. There’s a reason why people like coming into the firm, and it’s the reason why I’ve been here for so long.

Adam Mckenna Partner

There’s that open door culture, where you can just pick up the phone or go and see anyone and have a really good conversation about what’s on your desk and what’s on their desk, what’s changing in the market. It’s a real open, friendly feel and an entrepreneurial spirit that’s shared across the business.

Imam Qazi Partner

It’s such a friendly and supportive working environment. It makes a huge difference to me in my experience of coming to work on a day-to-day basis and that has remained true despite double digit growth year-on-year for a long time now.

Hannah Batten Managing Associate

My team and the firm as a whole is incredibly supportive. The firm allows you to do work that you will not only find interesting, but that will help you develop.

Elin Bebbington Paralegal

One of the highlights since I joined was this year’s summer party. It was really nice to see colleagues outside of work – I think it’s important to well-being and building that positive attitude.

Jamie Windsor Client Solutions Assistant Manager

The culture at Foot Anstey is very growth focused. It’s really energetic and the firm places a high value on emotional intelligence.

Clara Pike-Siew Trainee Solicitor

I thought Foot Anstey was the perfect place for me because their values suited my values, and it seemed like the perfect place for somebody young wanting to start their career.

Freya Coombs Apprentice Paralegal

The firm is a place where you can discuss your mental health quite openly, which has been a big relief to me. I think for a lot of people their mental health is a part of their identity, and you can’t necessarily separate that part of yourself out from your work self, so it’s been very comforting to know that I can be at home at work in that way.
