Careers at ExpertsDirect
About ExpertsDirect
ExpertsDirect provides expert witness services for litigation. From sourcing experts on request through our panel of experts, or locating other experts through research, to assisting the expert with delivering admissible reports that receive a quality assurance check, to providing training, we work closely with experts and lawyers on legal cases.
Founded in 2013 with the promise to create a more robust and efficient way of securing expert witnesses, our quality assurance process reduces the stress of managing expert witnesses for lawyers.
Culture, Diversity, and Inclusion
ExpertsDirect believes a healthy workplace culture is one where every team member feels valued, respected, and fulfilled; it’s also one where everyone knows what they’re working toward and why and is evident on the steps they need to take to get there.
Our core values are genuinely lived at ExpertsDirect, with weekly nominations by every employee to colleagues who met those values the preceding week. The most votes at the end of the month are awarded the “Most Valuable Player” with a reward.
ExpertsDirect is becoming a global organization and is diverse.
Embracing and celebrating the differences in our people is embedded in the culture of ExpertsDirect.
ExpertsDirect takes equality seriously. More than half of the leadership team of ExpertsDirect are women, and pay parity checks are regular. Flexibility is available with some of our employees working part-time and many more working remotely or flexibly regularly.
In 2018, ExpertsDirect, in partnership with the Australian Pro Bono Centre, launched a service to assist pro bono and community lawyers with engaging affordable or pro bono expert witnesses.
The service connects pro bono and community lawyers with expert witnesses willing to provide expert witness services for free or at a low cost in legal cases in which disadvantaged or marginalised clients are otherwise unable to afford expert witness reports.
Values
These are the values we live and work by as a company.
Baby, You're a Firework!
We believe in doing things well and being as amazing as we can be.
Sharpening the Spear
We are determined to be the best at what we do and in everything we do. This often means doing things differently and challenging the status quo. We are curious, have a growth mindset, learn from our mistakes and never give up on becoming better.
Respect La Famiglia
You can choose your friends and, yes, you can (and should!) also choose your work-family. We spend so much time together, we believe it’s important to work somewhere you love and with people, you get on with. We all have an important place at the table. We contribute. We also support each other to help each other shine brighter.
Pull the Rabbit Out of the Hat
We are obsessed with delivering a seamless customer and expert experience. Whenever possible, we will do our best to pull the proverbial rabbit out the hat to surprise and delight our clients and experts.
