TENANCY
4KBW's reputation is
founded upon the quality of our specialist advocacy and advice, and we
place great emphasis on junior tenants acquiring as much advocacy
experience as possible in their initial years of practice. We reinforce
this with a heavy investment in advocacy training in-house, and provide
for a planned structure for the career development of each new tenant.
In line with planned
expansion, applications are invited from commercial law practitioners.
Applications should include a curriculum vitae and covering letter, and
should be addressed to the Recruitment Committee.
Location and Rent
Chambers imposing
location in one of the oldest surviving buildings in Temple, with
modern amenities, provides an ideal location for both established and
more junior practitioners. Members have access to up-to-date IT
facilities in the building, and the superb online and traditional
resources of the Inner Temple Library are but 50 metres away.
As a new set of chambers
the infrastructure, staff and business plan has been built and
structured around the needs of successful practising barristers rather
then legacy policies and procedures. This streamlined approach to
delivery of services and complementary administration coupled with a
unique transparent and regulated fiscal management delivers a 1st class
administrative hub and low rents. A fixed rent structure is extremely
beneficial for successful senior practitioners who are not penalised on
their receipts. Forward planning with short and medium term goals are
supported by Chambers' positive balance operating policy.
Facilities and Technology
Chambers has 2 bespoke
dedicated conference rooms providing a modern comfortable working
environment for meetings and presentations. Chambers has recently
completed an upgrade in its infrastructure, with the replacement of the
ACE Infinity system and the successful migration to IRIS Law. This is
available networked to members in chambers and also available to
members by remote access from their home computers or Blackberries.
Members have access to the Chambers' network, and ADSL to the desk or
by wireless access point. All members have their own e-mail and
personal direct telephone lines in addition to Chambers' general
numbers.
Equal Opportunities
In accordance with the
Bar Code of Conduct and Equality Code, we practise an equal
opportunities policy for selection of pupils and tenants. We select
candidates solely on merit irrespective of race, ethnic or national
origin, nationality, citizenship, sex, sexual orientation, marital
status, age, religion, political persuasion or disability.
