K3 Legal is unique compared to other law firms due to its horizontal structure. As a junior, this is particularly beneficial because it allows for close collaboration with associates, senior associates, and directors. This structure fosters a more inclusive and supportive learning environment, where you are not only exposed to a variety of legal expertise but also encouraged to contribute meaningfully to cases and projects early in your career.
My role goes beyond traditional legal tasks—it often involves understanding clients' long term goals and aligning our strategies accordingly. This adds a layer of complexity and variety that keeps the work engaging and rewarding.
Fun, Collaborative, Impactful.
K3 Legal has been incredibly supportive in helping me achieve my goal of gaining practical court experience. Thanks to their encouragement and trust, I’ve already had the opportunity to make my first couple of court appearances, which is a significant milestone early in my career. The firm provides a collaborative environment where senior team members actively mentor juniors, ensuring we’re well-prepared and confident for these opportunities. This hands-on experience has been invaluable in building my advocacy skills and deepening my understanding of courtroom practice.
I’d recommend K3 Legal because it provides an excellent balance of professional growth and a supportive workplace culture. As a graduate, you’re given the opportunity to engage in meaningful work from the start, with guidance from approachable and experienced colleagues. The variety of work keeps things interesting, and the firm’s emphasis on collaboration ensures you’re never navigating challenges alone. It’s a place where you can build confidence, develop your skills, and feel genuinely included in the team’s successes. If you’re looking for a workplace that values your contributions and invests in your future, K3 is an outstanding choice.

Karyn Gould
Senior Consultant, K3 Consulting
"Working alongside K3 Legal and Accounting, there is a collegiality amongst the entire group, that makes the office a great place to share ideas, keep aware of issues, and think more broadly"
At K3 Consulting we are a team of people with complementary skills, but a common ideology, that we support our clients to be successful in a sustainable way. This means that at the end of a project or interaction we know they are in a better position than when they began. That means that we have long standing relationships with our clients, who end up feeling like extended colleagues, advocates and trusted networks.
Having worked together in various roles throughout the years, we are a team who choose to be work partners, but we also all realise the importance of life outside of work commitments, so we actively support each other so we can be flexible in achieving our personal and professional goals.
I have the privilege of working with many clients in a week, therefore I may need to quickly shift between context, scenarios and topics. Sometimes this can be a mind-juggling experience, however, it also means that I can immerse myself in many different organisations, feel like part of their team, and I often come away more knowledgeable and passionate about their causes as a result.
Challenging, Intensive, Rewarding
I love variety and having a challenge. This means trying new things which can sometimes be outside of my comfort zone. My team have confidence in giving me opportunities and are there to guide me, support me and provide valuable feedback.
Working alongside K3 Legal and K3 Accounting, there is a collegiality amongst the entire group, that makes the office a great place to share ideas, keep aware of issues, and think more broadly. The teams are open, friendly, respectful and hardworking.

"The projects I undertake on a daily basis are varied, insightful and rarely boring. I don't think all accountants can say that as much as I can"
Building strong relationships with our great clients. We have a large variety of different projects and roles in which we act for clients and to really do the best for them, we get to know them pretty well.

I’m a Chartered Accountant first and foremost but the roles and projects I undertake on a day to day basis are varied, insightful and rarely boring. I don't think all accountants can say that as much as I can.
Curious, personable and reliable.
K3 has provided me with the opportunity to be part of establishing a unique and successful public practice accountancy firm, from the ground up. With my goal of one day becoming a manager and partner, having been such a close part of that has been a level of experience not everyone gets to be involved with.
The opportunities and scope of work is varied, with broad range of clientele across the K3 Group
