We care about our staff. This simple statement is what drives us to make sure that we are and remain the employer of choice for our staff. Why do we care? Because to be the best you must employ the best.

At Kloppers Inc., we value a robust work ethic, merit, initiative and loyalty to the firm and our colleagues. In return, we make sure that our staff work in the best conditions, are remunerated well, are recognised for their performance, and have opportunities to develop. We also make sure that there is enough time to socialise, have fun and get involved in community activities.

To help everyone work in the right direction and towards the same goals, we have strong management structures in place both at firm and practice group level with line managers to help supervise staff, provide feedback and direct the work traffic. Although seniority is important to us, we actually have a flat structure with an open approach to sharing information, asking advice or generally helping colleagues. For us it’s about working as a team and making sure our clients are happy and receive the best service.

That’s why we only employ the best and invest heavily in making them even better. So, if you have made it through the door to become a member of our family, you are good enough - and together we will help make you great.

Do you take the lead? Are you creative? Do you have a ‘can-do’ attitude? Do you believe you offer something different? If you do, you are at the right place and may have the qualities to become a new breed of attorney!

At Kloppers Inc., we only appoint candidate attorneys we believe have these qualities. Hard work, good academics, leadership etc. are implied – it’s that extra element that a candidate can offer that makes him or her our pick.

To identify our top choices, we follow a rigorous recruitment and interview process. We feel so strongly about this process that we involve our directors directly in the process to ensure that we appoint right and invest correctly in our future. We also make sure that the remuneration package, benefits and the perks our candidate attorneys receive are worthy of the quality of candidates we wish to appoint.

Once appointed, it is our aim to turn each candidate into a new breed attorney. We expect our candidate attorneys to hit the ground running, and put candidates through a robust orientation process to acclimatise to the firm and its procedures. We invest aggressively in continuing training and development, providing technical and vital soft skills training as well as formal mentorship programmes and informal coaching to our candidates.

Candidate attorneys are provided formal and informal feedback during their articles, ensuring that they always know where they stand and what to improve on. We don’t believe in hiring expensive waiters and make sure our candidates are exposed to and have an opportunity to do real work, under the watchful supervision of a director.

We have a culture and way of doing things that is very specific to our firm. Accordingly, we develop our new breed attorneys internally and invest in their expertise and skills. Many of our senior professionals served their articles with us and have moved through the ranks to receive higher honours in the firm, evolving our approach to law along the way.

But every now and then we meet an outside professional that has the right qualities to become a new breed attorney at Kloppers Inc. and who is on the lookout for a firm with the qualities and values we hold important.

If you believe you fit the bill and are interested in working as a professional at Kloppers Inc., you can contact us by sending a current curriculum vitae as well as a cover letter indicating your preferred branch and detailing why you wish to join our firm to Mr Wian Pienaar at wian.pienaar@kloppersinc.co.za.
