Learning & Development roles for partnerships

Closely aligned with the talent management strategies of HR departments, learning & development in law firms is now acknowledged as a critical component in the commercial progress of every law firm as they confront increasing competition, consolidation and globalisation.

Previously a function that has often struggled to gain partner-level attention, learning & development departments are now building a position at the top table. Ever-more aware of the importance of broad skill development and ongoing support of expertise across the firm, partners, fee-earners and business support are increasingly garnering the benefits of legal, management and commercial skills development.

The firms seeing real impact from a comprehensive L&D programme closely tied with their talent management strategies have strong individuals in place - analysing skills gaps and training requirements; implementing best-practice methods; and designing high-impact courses that deliver significant and lasting change throughout the firm.
 

At Totum, we know that there’s more to excellence than just ticking the boxes. In the legal sector more than any other, candidate placement is about match-making - matching the right expertise, personality and aspirations with the right role, in the right firm. We work closely with our candidates and our clients to ensure that when we recommend a role to you, it’s exactly right. No compromises.
