No chance.Whilst we doff our hats to past custodians, as current incumbents its our job to innovate, excite, and ensure that when future generations look at our pictures lining the wall, not only can they see what a nice and friendly bunch we are, BUT also thatwe were the dream team, the mavericks, the leaders in the field, the game-changers that make Hedges one of the most beautifully different law firms of its time.In short - you will own part of the company. (Well just let that sink in). We are the fifth employee-owned law firm in the UK, meaning you will have share in the business success from day one. Theres no buy-in and no liability with our innovative trustshareholder structure. Its really special.Last year was our biggest revenue year yet and we have ambitious and exciting plans for the future - theres still so much to do and achieve and were not happy unless were pushing boundaries… And we want you and your big-creative-digital-allround-geeky-obsesssive-restless-rebelliousmarketing brain to be part of that.Were a natural home for the mavericks - the people who dont fit, the risk takers, the disrupters, the challengers.
