In the first installment of the People First Series, Rachael Harrison talks with Rod Foster-Hill, Senior HR Business Partner at Travers Smith, a leading full-service law firm based in London that considers diversity and independence of thought as key to the firms success.

In the episode, Rachael and Rod discuss how Travers Smith quickly implemented flexible means of communication when lockdown hit, focused on mental health early on and helped prioritise a healthy work life balance.

For a business like theirs, the office is the heartbeat of the Travers Smith business, so maintaining their culture of learning and collaboration has been key challenge they have overcome, as has developing a modern recruitment process.

A great episode to kick-start the series, please leave a comment and rating to let us know what you think!
