Working at Gallaway Cook Allan

We’re a law firm with heart.  We are a group of engaged, talented and high performing people and because of this we strive to deliver the best expert legal advice in the Otago region.  Between our Dunedin and Wanaka offices we have a team of about 90 professionals and support staff. 

Enabling people to strike that healthy balance between working hard and having time to do the things they want to outside of work is important and we try hard to do that.  But don’t take our word for it, have a look around our site, see what our people say to get a sense of who we are and how we like to work.

The good stuff

We love what we do, and that’s what gets us out of bed in the morning, but we have some great benefits too :

• Private health care insurance for all our staff and an option for our families to join too at a discounted rate.  Flu vaccinations & counselling are another part of keeping our people well.
• Developing our people is very important to us. We know it's a reason why great people want to join and stay - to further their careers, to become a better version of themselves, and to play a part in growing our business.
• We offer our people free conveyancing and discounted legal transactions of course.
• We get together during the year to talk about the business and have an awesome party at Christmas. During the year we like to do some fun things too, whether it be staff parties, cooking classes, ski trips, curling or quiz nights.  Our social club also holds a great mid year function.
• We like to wind down properly before the weekend so we have beers on Fridays. Sometimes there is pizza too.  
• We have social sports teams such as netball, basketball and golf
• We are very conscious of the challenges of working and having a family so we like to be flexible where we can.
• We have an active sustainability and community group which is run by our staff to faciliate and encourage sustainability and community involvement and initiatives within the firm.
