About

Provided by Mishcon de Reya LLP

The Incentives and Remuneration practice at Mishcon de Reya focusses on understanding clients' businesses and working with them to design and implement bespoke remuneration and employee incentive plans. We identify the financial metrics against which an incentives plan should be measured and structure the incentives strategically to drive the behaviours that all good employers want. The resulting arrangements are always simple, focused and effective. We understand the regulatory landscape and have a firm grasp of continually evolving EU and UK remuneration requirements.

We work with businesses of all sizes, from the largest FTSE-listed global organisations to smaller, high-growth entrepreneurial businesses or private, equity-backed companies. It gives us a unique perspective on the market.
