Rix & Kay Solicitors LLP aims to make the law easy for its staff, as well as its clients. It wants to make it easy for them to make their mark, their own way, easy for them to offer great client service and easy for them to work flexibly – where, when and however they're most productive.

The firm offers professional training and development, exposure to working on the bigger, more stimulating cases earlier, and high-quality work with exciting clients. It describes itself as "a company of personalities where everyone has a part to play". The firm says it is a "friendly, welcoming and open place where your opinions are valued and where we want your voice to be heard".

Rix & Kay is one of the largest law firms in South-East England. It has offices in Ashford, Brighton and Hove, Seaford, Sevenoaks and Uckfield. Staff provide a full range of legal services for business owners, entrepreneurs and individuals.

It aims to be the legal employer of choice in the South-East and to be a successful growing business. Jenny Reardon, HR manager, says: "We have high expectations of our staff but we also have the mechanisms in place to support and develop them to meet their career aspirations. I have benefited from our management development programme and I have seen the positive impact this had had on our people and our business."
