Life at Clearhouse LLP

Internal Clearhouse LLP Committees

We have established cross-functional groups of employees that are responsible for promoting and driving our unique culture.

These committees ensure that the firm considers employees’ perspectives when making important decisions that affect them. Some of the goals of our committees include developing culture communication and sustainability strategies, well-being and wellness, diversity & inclusion, and community involvement and volunteerism.

“Committee work is an excellent vehicle to deliver and achieve professional development – whether it be gaining impact and influencing skills, practicing facilitation and gaining presentation skills, and honing cross-collaboration and leadership abilities.”
