Law firm Napthens wants to be known for its 'outstanding relationships.'

The LLP – which has six North West Offices from the Lake District to Liverpool – is far from 'stuffy.’ It prides itself on having a team of specialists who are 'approachable and willing to listen' in matters as diverse as corporate strategy and conveyancing.

And this open, caring approach is just as important inside the organisation.

At Napthens, there's a strong focus on mental health. Experts have been invited to talk about subjects such as menopause and sleep. And staff can take part in yoga and meditation sessions and access counselling services.

Employees also have access to a new benefits discount platform, saving them money on fuel, food and gifts. And there's a hardship fund so staff can have financial peace of mind during a crisis.

The MyNapthens committee encourages staff to have social and professional relationships. It's organised quizzes and bingo, children's online parties, cook-alongs and a 'Winter Warmer Day' where partners served staff hot food across all offices.

Napthens offers generous financial incentives. A discretionary bonus scheme rewards employees who've gone above and beyond. And referrals can result in big rewards. £3,000 is on offer for recommending a successful recruit and there’s a bonus for every £5,000 of work referred. For the biggest referrer, there's a trip to New York for two!
