Gully has been reaffirmed as one of the country's leading legal employers,
named in NZ Lawyer’s inaugural Employer of Choice 2020
report.
The report highlighted "legal employers across the country who go beyond
industry standards with policies and initiatives to provide their people with a
safe and engaging working environment".
Bell
Gully was recognised for its career progression
initiatives
which support all levels, inclusive and diverse
environment
and comprehensive health and wellbeing programme.
Chair
Anna Buchly said the firm has a
strong focus on empowering its people to reach their full potential by
embracing diversity and inclusion.
"Our
people are intrinsically linked to our continuing success. A great example
of this is how our people responded to the COVID-19 lockdown. We were able
to seamlessly transition to working from home, while also supporting our
clients to respond to their individual circumstances,” she said.
This
accolade follows the firm's award for Employer of Choice at the 2019 New
Zealand Law Awards. Earlier this year, Bell Gully was
also voted among the top 30 New Zealand employers in a survey of
recent graduates from GradNewZealand.
