“Setfords has been really supportive of my career development. The Rising Stars programme gave me the confidence and skills to take the next step, and I’ve always felt encouraged to grow and progress. There’s a real focus on looking after people, whether through mentoring, wellbeing initiatives, or just the general culture of support. It’s made a huge difference to me, both professionally and personally.”

“The Management Academy has been invaluable! The subjects we’ve been covering in the sessions has really helped develop my key leadership skills within Setfords, from effective communication to strategic decision-making. Not only boosting my confidence as a manager but also equipped me with the tools to better support my team…and ultimately drive results.”

Connor Walker, Trainee Solicitor
“I’ve been at Setfords for nearly four years, starting in the legal secretarial department and now a year into my training contract. The support and opportunities for growth have been incredible—everyone genuinely wants to see you succeed and is always willing to help.”

Hamish Savin, Director – Lawyer Recruitment
“I’m proud to be part of the Diversity Champions Committee, it’s a lot more than just discussions—we come away from the meetings with plans and actions! It’s given me the chance to actively contribute to making Setfords a more inclusive and supportive workplace. I also spoke about the committee at our latest town hall and we gained a new member, which was great.”

Abbie Mills, Senior Executive – Content and Copy
“As a business, we have a responsibility to be eco-friendly, and that’s why I love being part of the Green Team. We get to create meaningful initiatives that make a real difference. My favourite part is taking part in our clean-up events—I’ve joined every single one, and it’s great when we get feedback from the local community!”

Hayley Manson, Events Co-ordinator
“Being part of the Social Committee is great. Especially in my role, it’s a fantastic way to connect with people across the company and hear what events they’d love to happen. Everyone has brilliant ideas, and we get to bring them to life. Organising our big annual charity event is particularly rewarding—it’s amazing to make a real difference while having fun!”
