Knight Frank’s culture is that of inclusiveness, personal encouragement, recognising the value of each and every member of staff, and promoting the cross-fertilisation of abilities and resources.
It starts at the Senior Partner's office, where an open door attests to a spirit of accessibility and approachability. All Partners go out of their way to be hands-on members of the wider team, fully involved in the everyday action and readily available for meetings and impromptu ideas-swapping with colleagues at all levels.
Knight Frank enjoys a consistently low turnover of staff, with many people choosing to remain with the firm for years or even decades. One reason is our commitment to personal development, with a highly supportive career framework offering tailored training to enable all employees to maximise their own potential. Another is the rewarding Knight Frank lifestyle, which encourages participation both in professional contexts and in social and charitable activities.

It spills over into a variety of out-of-hours activities, some charitable, others sporting and social. Our work ethic adds up to a constantly interesting and rewarding lifestyle.
