Along with a competitive annual salary, you’ll be offered a creative full package of benefits. We’re all unique. And that’s why RPC’s benefits package is, too. We respect we’re all real people with passions, families and lives away from our desks. So we provide our employees an effective reward and recognition package which offers competitive financial and non-financial benefits which are really valued by our people.

Our benefits package covers almost everything, from wellness festivals and social events, to family and wealth-related rewards. There’s even different wellness and social groups you can get involved with!

The first few weeks will be taken up with our Trainee New Starter Programme which has been designed to introduce you to RPC. You’ll meet the partners, the current trainees and our trainee development team.

This will be very much up to you! Depending on your ability, you’ll be given real responsibility from day one. We like to give our trainees a challenge, but you’ll never be asked to take on more than you’re confident with. Your supervisor(s) will decide exactly how much you should take on at each stage of your training.

We’re proud of our open and honest culture. So you’ll have regular, informal feedback from your supervisors. We'll also give you formal reviews every three months which will provide you, and us, with an opportunity to assess how you’re getting on and areas where we can help you progress further.

We don’t expect anyone to work long hours for the sake of it. But, when there’s a lot of work to be done and deadlines are looming, we’ll naturally want everybody to put in the hours and pull together.

Yes, 30% of our work is international in nature. We have offices in London, Bristol, Hong Kong and Singapore and are founding members of the TerraLex network of law firms which gives us ready access to lawyers in over 100 jurisdictions. We also have international secondment opportunities to our London office.

No, we don't. We recognise all the PCLL qualifications granted by any of the three law schools in Hong Kong, namely The Chinese University of Hong Kong, The City University of Hong Kong and The University of Hong Kong. You’ll have to pass your PCLL first time around in all of every exam.

No, we do not have any preference on what electives you need to take as the core subjects have already covered the essential elements of our practices.

Meet us we host a number of events throughout the year.
