[QUOTE="sakaesr99, post: 88712, member: 11842"] Would appreciate some help with this question on the Burges Salmon vac scheme: "As an independent UK firm what do you think are the main challenges and opportunities that Burges Salmon could face over the next five years?" Would it be valid to discuss the challenges of keeping up with City/international firms while maintaining the identity that differentiates Burges? For example, they have a very collaborative/collegiate culture as almost all its lawyers work from its Bristol base; opening up more offices may make it easier to compete but may have effects on culture, and vice versa. But then discuss the opportunities the firm's identity affords; its independence is a differentiating factor that clients value. Maintaining client relations is arguably more important than ever in the post-pandemic world and the firm excels on this front. WIth its workers situated mainly in the Bristol office the firm can also focus more on community-based pro bono work, and do it in a collaborative way which involves the whole firm; this will attract clients of the future who are paying more and more attention to ESG issues. Remote working will also help the firm remain flexible and may downplay its lack of physical offices, as will the firm's involvement in international networks. Does all this sound fine? [/QUOTE]
