Our Ethos

Each person is equally important here and every role is essential to the services we provide. It’s crucial to us that we run a happy ship. We’ve no time for office politics, unkindness or lone rangers. Many of us spend more time working than relaxing, so we want to enjoy it.

Most of our clients are recommended or referred to us by existing clients or other professionals and our aim is to exceed their expectations. Anything less than that simply isn’t good enough.

 

Benefits

We’re a dynamic, expanding firm with a great reputation. We pay competitive salaries and reward great performance with a generous package.

Most of us mix working from home and in one or more of our offices. This is usually arranged within the respective teams and can be very flexible within the demands of the workload and clients’ needs.

Diversity Matters

We’re not looking for anodyne personalities or specific backgrounds. We’re an eclectic mix and we enjoy adding to that – we think it enriches us and enhances the services we offer. You just need to be clever, ambitious, great with people, love what you do, and want to be part of a great team.

We’re committed to achieving equality of opportunity and treat all applications fairly and in strict confidence, in line with our recruitment privacy policy.

Locations

Our Head Office and Administration Centre is based in Bury St Edmunds. All physical post, our accounts team and paper administration are run from this location. We also have offices and meeting centres in other locations in Suffolk and London, with plans to open more.

All lawyers and support staff work variously from home and offices, typically spending approximately half of the week working from home and half from a mix of offices. If the circumstances demand it, everyone can work from home.

We’re always keen to hear from high-flyers who think they’d like to develop their career with us, and we very much encourage direct applications. We’d rather meet great people and create a role that maximises their talents and aspirations than require feats of contortion to fit into an advertised criteria.

“I am grateful for the support I have received from the firm over the last four years, particularly while studying for my LPC LLM part-time for the first two years alongside full-time work. The partners were incredibly approachable and generous with their time, offering guidance and encouragement that made a real difference in my journey to becoming a confident and capable solicitor.”

Maia Creed, Solicitor

“I began my journey on summer work experience and have never looked back. I’m now a partner. The opportunity to grow within the firm is exceptional. There’s always been a genuinely open and inclusive culture that promotes departmental and firm-wide teamwork. We’re a forward-thinking firm that breeds optimistic, passionate and talented people.”

Nino Piccoli, Partner

“Working with Atkins Dellow has been very exciting. I’ve begun my CILEx Course which will give me the tools and knowledge to grow within my team. We’re such a vibrant and ambitious bunch – this energy infuses our work ethic and we always take that extra step to get things done.”

Elisabeth Baxter, Paralegal

“I’ve progressed from carrying out administrative filing tasks to qualifying as a Chartered Legal Executive. Following my law degree, I studied with CILEx Law School, undertaking the graduate fast track route to becoming a Chartered Legal Executive specialising in residential property. I’ve always felt supported and appreciated here. It’s a great place to work with a brilliant team of colleagues.”

Tricia Sandry, Associate Chartered Legal Executive

“The firm welcomed me with open arms from day one. I was a graduate looking for someone to give me an opportunity, as well as settle into a new area. Atkins Dellow gave me that opportunity and so much more. My confidence and skills have grown enormously and I’m now a Trainee Solicitor. Without the support and community of the firm, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

Ella Savage, Trainee Solicitor

“Changing careers was a big step, but Atkins Dellow were welcoming and made the transition feel seamless. The team are a friendly bunch who are always happy to help, and the variety of social events throughout the year are a great way to get to know each other.”
