We are proud of our down to earth culture, and the role the whole Singapore team plays in making Kennedys such a great place to work and to grow a successful career – not to mention the opportunity to work on high-stakes matters for market leading clients.”

Kennedys offers its Singapore staff structured professional development programmes, mentorship, competitive remuneration and benefits, access to social and team building events, as well as progressive initiatives and policies which support wellbeing and improved work-life balance.   

Diversity, inclusion and responsibility are also key priorities for Kennedys.

Kennedys offers a holistic and nurturing environment for their lawyers to learn, grow and mature. Having joined Kennedys last year, I was surprised by the firm’s positive, inclusive, and collegiate culture, which is a rare find in the legal industry today. The firm emphasises employee wellbeing and is committed to their employees’ professional development through various initiatives.

Kennedys is a firm that creates and supports a positive workplace culture through team bonding, social events, and openness in the office. They have created programmes to support employees through recognition, wellbeing, and career advancement. Another reason for Kennedys being a great place to work is the leadership styles at all levels from Office Managing Partner, through to Senior Partner, including on the business services side as well. The leaders at Kennedys are transparent and reassuring, driven but also compassionate, making one feel heard and included.

Kennedys invests in its people, no matter the role. I've had opportunities to grow, learn new skills, and take on new challenges that I never thought possible. Everyone’s contribution is appreciated, and that makes all the difference. What truly sets Kennedys apart is its commitment to diversity and inclusion. People from all backgrounds are encouraged to bring their unique perspectives, which creates a richer and more dynamic work environment.
