Case Study: Taylor Wessing improves hybrid work allocation and career development with BigHand Resource Management

Taylor Wessing optimises work allocation to support hybrid working and career development with Resource Management

Taylor Wessing, an international law firm, needed a better way to manage work allocation in its hybrid working model. The firm wanted to ensure equitable access to career-enhancing work regardless of location, while also reducing the time partners spent assigning matters. BigHand Resource Management was chosen to support these goals.

BigHand implemented BigHand Resource Management to improve visibility of lawyer workloads, skillsets, and career ambitions, helping Taylor Wessing match people to matters more consistently and inclusively. After a successful pilot, 100% of corporate partners said work was allocated more consistently, and 70% said they had worked with a wider variety of people and teams, while also improving efficiency and supporting lawyer development.
