Why work for us?

FJG has been established for over 40 years and our lawyers have vast experience and carry substantial reputational goodwill. Our professional accreditations and awards rank us in both The Legal 500 and Chambers directories, and our modern, forward-thinking, approach has seen us stay at the forefront of a fast-moving, evolving market.

We are a young and growing firm, and we want people who will grow with us! For over a decade, FJG has been one of the region’s fastest-growing firms of solicitors. Now part of Lawfront, we are able to deliver an enhanced customer experience yet are still a family firm at heart, and we hold our values firmly in line with this ideal.

A great part of this success has been due to our staff and our working environment. Due to the location of our offices throughout Essex, we are in the unique position to be able to offer both town centre and out of town working for our employees across a wide range of Legal disciplines.

We enjoy our work and value good relationships within the firm. We like to recruit cheerful, outgoing people who are ready to tackle anything.

Naturally, we look for academic qualifications and skills appropriate to each role. But we especially welcome people with a positive attitude; and who are willing to take responsibility and work as part of a team.

Our engagement and well-being strategies strive to be market-leading. We aim to provide a culture and environment where our people can reach their potential whilst supporting their wellbeing.

Further to this, our Equality & Diversity group are committed to modernising our approach to a fair workplace culture and diverse workforce, asking for staff feedback and ensuring that we action whatever we can to improve on the employee experience.

We are also an equal opportunities employer and welcome people from all backgrounds. We recognise that to be successful, we need to create an inclusive environment where everyone can realise their potential and succeed.

This means all employees, and job applicants, will be treated without regard to Sex, Race, Age, Gender, Religion or Disability. Our goal is to treat all individuals fairly throughout; any decisions and selections in the workplace are based solely on job-related criteria and the needs of the firm.

We have created a handy guide to help you understand the different pathways to becoming a Solicitor, which can be found here.
