Dear there

Here's another piece of advice to help you build a career that you really want! And remember, as an Explorer, you’ve also been entered into a bonus prize draw for a 12-month HeadSpace subscription! Results will be released after 25 August and we will email the winner.

Step 3: Build a Career That Feels Like You

Explorers often thrive in roles others overlook — or create new roles themselves. Do consider:

🏢 Smaller firms or boutique practices

They will offer more varied, hands-on work.

🌱 Looking for legal roles in non-firm companies

Including start-ups, NGOs, public services or social impact organisations.

🧩 Building a hybrid career

This could be either legal and tech, legal and policy, or even legal and music. Stay open to pivots... your first job is just one step, not your whole path.
