Career Progression
Many of our trainees have stayed with BPE and have progressed to Solicitor level and further. We also encourage staff development and training. We want you to be the best you can be, and will help you in any way we can.
Competitive Salary
We offer a competitive salary with other firms in the county and beyond
Flexible Work Hours
If you need to come in late or leave early, talk to us. We know life isn't always 9 to 5. Team leaders and HR are always there to find a way to make things work for you and for BPE
Collaborative approach
Staff are encouraged to collaborate and to work together.
Ongoing Support
Being in an open plan office means you'll be working around Partners, Associates and business services. Your colleagues' knowledge and experience is at your disposal
Vibrant Community
We encourage trainees to live locally to get the full BPE experience and to immerse themselves in Cheltenham. It's not only the place where you'll work, many of our trainees live here so you'll be able to enjoy the social aspects of being a trainee too
Training
We encourage trainees to attend training courses throughout their time at BPE regardless of which seat they're currently working in
Team Days Out
We want the people you work with to be more than colleagues. Your team could have an activity day, visit a gin distillery or simply go to the pub for board games and good food
