Winston Taylor Champions LGBTQ+ Early Careers Talent at WorkFair 2025
Overview
Winston Taylor (formerly Taylor Wessing), an international law firm renowned for its inclusive culture and commitment to diversity, partnered with myGwork’s WorkFair 2025 – the world’s largest LGBTQ+ virtual career fair. The collaboration highlighted Winston Taylor’s ongoing dedication to creating a workplace where everyone can thrive, while connecting the firm with a diverse pipeline of early careers talent.
The Challenge
Like many leading organisations, Winston Taylor recognises the importance of building a strong pipeline of early careers talent. For the firm, this means not only attracting the brightest graduates but also ensuring they reflect the diversity of the communities they serve.
In particular, Gen Z talent consistently prioritises diversity, equity, and inclusion when choosing their future employers. Winston Taylor wanted to strengthen its visibility as a truly inclusive workplace while engaging directly with LGBTQ+ students and graduates looking for career opportunities in law.

“I’m really proud that Taylor Wessing is joining myGwork’s WorkFair this November. It’s such a great chance for us to meet and support early talent, especially those looking for inclusive and welcoming workplaces. This event speaks directly to our values and the culture we have built – where everyone can be themselves and thrive. It also feels extra special coming off the back of winning a Rainbow Honours award earlier this year, which recognises the progress we’re making. We’re excited to keep that momentum going and connect with the next generation of changemakers.”
