Why be a Peerpoint consultant?

A consulting career through Peerpoint is exciting, varied, and extremely rewarding. As a Peerpoint consultant, you can have the opportunity to work:

1. In-house with one of our clients - this could mean working with a client either virtually or locally to support a project, regulatory reform, or transactional work during periods of absence. Assignments can range from three to twelve months in duration and will vary in hours.
2. In the A&O Abu Dhabi practice to support a specific client or the practice generally during peak volumes. We have consultants that step into the team on an ad hoc basis and those who work regularly to support the Practice.

We only take you on when we see a demand for your particular expertise, making sure there is a good chance we can provide you with work on an ongoing basis. We cannot guarantee work, but we are every bit as invested in moving your career forward as you are.
