Our success depends on attracting the best people and nurturing their talent, so that we can continue to offer the market-leading legal services that we are known for. Selecting the right law firm to start your career - or spend your summer - is an important decision. At Chetcuti Cauchi, we are very selective about the first-year associates and summer associates we invite to join us.
Working environment
Chetcuti Cauchi provides a professional environment in which talented young professionals flourish, achieve their potential and enjoy their work. This provides a breeding ground of innovative and ground breaking legal skills and excellence in legal knowledge. We are interested in what each person can contribute, both individually and working alongside others. If you join us, you will find some great colleagues and fascinating work.
Chetcuti Cauchi's tradition of excellence, commitment to client service and lean staffing model means that our associates, both permanent and summer associates, are given significant responsibilities. They work closely with our partners on substantive matters and enjoy an unusual degree of client contact. Our collegial atmosphere, without rigid department borders and formal hierarchy, allows associates to work in more than one area of interest. Professional development is fostered as new lawyers learn how different areas of the law interact.
Investing in your development
Chetcuti Cauchi is fully committed to helping each professional develop and broaden his or her skills, whatever the role. As a Chetcuti Cauchi member, you will have the opportunity to learn as you work alongside colleagues who are leaders in their field and to build on your skills through our extensive in-house training programmes. And at every stage of your career, we will work with you to help you achieve your career goals.
Partners' personal commitment
To ensure the firm's ethics are projected by all of its members, the firm's founding partners, Dr Jean-Philippe and Dr Maria Chetcuti-Cauchi, are involved first hand in the selection and direction of its employees and value the importance of on-going communication with employees at all levels.
Chetcuti Cauchi enjoys a long reputation as a good employer taking a personal interest in its workforce. As a result many of its lawyers and professional staff have spent their working lives with the firm, growing internally both professionally and personally.
Lifestyle
Life at Chetcuti Cauchi is not all work and no play. The social life of the firm is as important as its professional profile. We believe in the importance of maintaining a personal balance between work and leisure and of not only "working hard" but "playing hard" too.
Our Social Events Committee is responsible for creating opportunities for the firm's members to meet in different environments and to interact in social, cultural and leisure settings. Throughout the year, the SEC regularly organises cultural tours, informal and formal drinks, barbequeues, football and handball tournaments, and other team building activities.
Equal opportunities
We recruit on merit and believe in equality of opportunity. There is no one "Chetcuti Cauchi type" - although we do look for people who share our values, our ambition to be the best, our commitment to delivering the highest quality service, and our wish to work within a community of people who respect and co-operate with each other.
For the right people, we offer excellent opportunities
