Their philosophy is ‘Expert Hand, Human Touch’ – something you’ll find in the way the firm works with their clients and how support their teams. Irwin Mitchell is more than just a law firm – they’re a team, working together to help individuals and businesses navigate life’s ups and downs.
Whichever team you join, working at Irwin Mitchell will make you feel a part of their friendly and inclusive environment. They’ll value you for who you are and what you bring.

Irwin Mitchell recognises that the office 9-5 isn’t for everyone. That’s why they’ve introduced ‘Flexible by Choice’. Whether it’s working from home, in the office offices, or a combination of the both, they trust each other to support clients, colleagues and communities at the right time, in the right way.
