Juno Legal has once again been named one of New Zealand’s top legal workplaces, earning a place on the NZ Lawyer 5-Star Employer of Choice 2025 list, recognition we’re proud to have also received in 2020 and 2018.
A big thank you to NZ Lawyer for the thoughtful work that goes into this list. Their rigorous methodology, from employee engagement scores to detailed submissions on leadership, wellbeing, remuneration, and inclusion, helps shine a light on what good looks like across the profession. Ngā mihi to all the firms recognised in 2025. 🔗 Celebrate the full list of 2025 5-Star Employers of Choice
At Juno, our model is built around our people. Every hour of work is valued, whether that’s client delivery, professional development, or contributing to our community. Our remuneration approach is transparent and values-aligned, and our lawyers report high satisfaction with their compensation and benefits.
Leadership is shared and accessible. Many of our lawyers step into Acting General Counsel or Head of Legal roles, while others shape Juno’s strategy, lead projects, and contribute to governance through initiatives like the Juno Sounding Board.
Inclusion and wellbeing are part of how we work, from gender pay equity and flexible working to diverse speaker panels and open conversations about what makes careers sustainable. Through our Giving Back programme we donate a percentage of profit to charities chosen by our lawyers, and our sustainability journey keeps us focused on reducing impact, sharing knowledge, and supporting positive change.
“Our experience has always been that when people feel supported, valued, and trusted, they bring their best to the work that matters most,” said Juno Founder and Director Helen Mackay. “This recognition reflects our team, and it also gives clients confidence that the lawyers beside them are able to deliver at their best.”
Supported people deliver their best work. Juno brings experienced in-house lawyers alongside you - flexible, pragmatic, and ready to add fresh perspectives where and when you need them. Get some Juno talent into your team.
