SEARCH AND APPLY Meet the team Virginia Clegg, Senior Partner “At DAC Beachcroft we are very clear about the behaviours that support a diverse and inclusive environment. Our cultural principles: Supportive; Determined; Creative; and Clear, represent our shared commitment to each other, our clients and our communities. They describe the way in which we work together to deliver our strategy of helping our clients and our colleagues succeed, creating sustainable value. It’s our aim to foster an environment for all colleagues that is supportive – with approachable, open-minded and inclusive people who take time to listen and understand, and who value and respect others’ abilities, contributions and views. Supporting the ways in which people choose to integrate their working and home lives is an important consideration in our People Strategy.” James Tallant, Partner “I joined the firm as a filing clerk in August 2004 when I was 17 – I worked in the Leeds Injury Risk Group. In the 15 years since I joined, my role and responsibilities have changed substantially. Having started out in admin, I was really keen to develop into a fee-earning role. So I attended night school for eight years – fully supported by senior colleagues. In March 2007, I was promoted from a filing clerk to a paralegal and from there, I enjoyed various roles from claims handler and supervisor to team manager. After qualifying as a chartered legal executive in 2011 and as a solicitor in 2015, I was appointed an associate in 2016 and was made partner a year later. I’m now Head of Product for Casualty Claims Handling, with responsibility for 24 paralegals.” Sukhvinder Kaur, Litigation Executive “One of the things I love about life here is that everyone is encouraged to be innovative. We even have a dedicated Innovations Lab. An idea I put forward to the Lab about introducing an SMS service for our clients has now been launched. The idea came to me when I noticed that one of our clients had contacted an insurer by text. I asked for another text to be sent requesting contact with DACB. As I had been given authority to run the matter for my client it really got me thinking, why aren’t we able to provide the same SMS service? So I fired an email across to our internal Innovations Lab, no more than a sentence or two. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was accepted by the Innovation Agents and the Executive Steering Committee. It’s great to see the idea come to a reality.” What's in it for you? We’re big believers that you’ll be better placed to deliver your best work if we make sure you can enjoy your life outside of work. So, we’re flexible. We actively look for well-rounded people who are about more than what they do for a job. We also take this approach on our rewards and benefits too.
