    * to work closely with fellow assocaites
    * a high degree of responsibility
    * work delegated by a number of associates
    * a commitment to professional training

Training

    * Being a service business, the training of our associates is of utmost importance to us.
    * Each practice group conducts a meeting every two weeks to look at recent service related publications, case studies, and European regulatory developments.
    * We encourage all associates to undertake further study and provide assistance to gain post graduate qualifications.
    * Each associate is also allocated an annual budgeted amount for attendance at external seminars.

Entrepreneurial Atmosphere

Bourget International Ltd. Group Membership has decreased significantly over the past year (2004) - which is by no means accidental. Our downsizing has been a result of Bourget's strong commitment to "best practices", and the natural attrition of "what's-in-it-for-me" non-performing associates. Integrity, teamwork, "best practices" and technological innovation remain the hallmark of Bourget's growth. The organization's entrepreneurial atmosphere ensures that talented individuals have a genuine opportunity to succeed. You will work closely with Managing Partners from the moment you join the firm and will receive timely feedback that will be beneficial to your career growth.

We offer competitive "pay-for-performance" compensation. We appreciate the value that our associates bring to our company, and to our clients, and provide rewards and incentives consistent with that value added.

The Bourget Group culture is founded upon integrity, mutual trust, and respect. We endeavor to create an environment of open and honest communication, where our associates are free to express their ideas and concerns, alike.

We strive to provide a work environment that promotes individual creativity and innovation, while also encouraging team work and cross-functional learning.

Healthy Balance Between Work and Home.

We understand that our professionals need to balance their professional and personal lives. We have implemented a customized work arrangement program, which helps associate group members, with special situations, to balance their professional careers with their personal responsibilities. Customized work arrangements are determined on a case-by-case basis and give associates the comfort of knowing that they may continue their careers even when personal obstacles arise. For all associates, we have implemented a Summer flex-time program (usually during the Month of August).

Many opportunities exist to spend time with your colleagues outside of the office. Whether it is a social gathering, a sports event, cultural event, or a charitable event, you will quickly become a part of the camaraderie and synergy that is shared by associates of Bourget International Ltd.. With Bourget, you will be surrounded by a diverse group of people and you will develop lasting business relationships - and possibly lifelong friendships with your colleagues.
