Press release - 15 April 2024In the contest for top talent, CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz is wowing candidates with a new look and feel, as well as an inclusive work environment that sets future-facing industry standards for maximum flexibility, international career opportunities, and great working conditions. Its employer promise is clear: We individuals win. CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz, one of the largest and most renowned law firms in Austria and the CEE region, is positioning itself as an employer with a strong brand identity in the contest for top talent. The firm developed its future-facing employer branding collaboratively on the basis of cross-de­part­ment­al and transnational interviews and workshops. The resulting relaunch is an authentic reflection of CMS both internally and externally, giving candidates a clear idea of what CMS stands for as an employer, what makes it special, and what sets it apart from competitors.  Diversity as the basis of shared success   The new employer branding aligns with the new employer promise “We individuals win” (#windividuals) and the employer values “grow, flow, show”, chosen to underline the sustainable values that form the foundation of CMS. These in­clude: Cre­at­ing an optimal environment for innovation and plenty of space for personal development (grow) Fos­ter­ing an open firm culture, an inclusive work environment, and appreciative interactions (flow) Show­cas­ing the cutting-edge expertise of its people (show) As Esther Brand­ner-Richter, Head of Human Resources at CMS in Vienna, explains, “The unique team behind our success unites diverse individuals with distinctive development trajectories – but always directed towards a common goal. That is the path we want to continue to pursue and to also make visible in our new employer branding. Our firm’s culture is the core of our employer brand. Going forward, we want to do even more to specifically foster our people’s individual talents. Because even in a traditional law firm environment, work should be fulfilling, fun, and offer enough flexibility for every­one.” Gün­ther Hanslik, Managing Partner at CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz, adds, “Our firm takes its social responsibility very seriously, building a sustainable culture through targeted initiatives that encompass all aspects of our work. It is a culture that allows everyone to fulfil their potential and grow, no matter what their background is – we champion diversity, solidarity, and in­clus­iv­ity.” Flex­ib­il­ity and space to adapt With its new employer branding, CMS also reinforces its image as a modern employer that practises New Work, and as a law firm that masters the challenges of today’s dynamic world of work. “In an age where the way we work is constantly changing, we recognise the importance of structuring your work individually,” says Esther Brand­ner-Richter. “Our people can set their working hours flexibly and benefit from a modern work environment that encourages creativity and cooperation. We embrace the concept of New Work. We value results, not working around the clock.”

Johannes Juranek and Günther Hanslik will take over management responsibilities at the Vienna law firm CMS on 1 February 2022. Together they want to make the firm fit to face the challenges of the future. CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz Rechtsanwälte GmbH will have a leadership duo as of 1 February 2022 comprising data protection specialist Johannes Juranek, who has already led the firm successfully for the past three years, and banking partner Günther Hanslik. They have been elected by the firm’s partners as managing partners for the next three years. CMS Austria already has a leading position in Central and Southeast Europe and has offices in Vienna, Belgrade, Bratislava, Istanbul, Kyiv, Ljubljana, Podgorica, Sarajevo, Skopje, Sofia and Zagreb. Together, the new management duo wants to further strengthen the positioning of the law firm, one of the most renowned in Austria. To this end, they will expand the firm’s core competencies, make CMS an even more attractive employer for the best lawyers in the country, advance digitalisation, and continue to oversee the successful implementation of the “Vision 2025” strategy. Jo­hannes Juranek will be responsible for IT and the development of new innovative technical tools over the next three years and continue to represent the company in the CMS global Executive Committee. Günther Hanslik will be responsible for Human Resources, Marketing & Communications, Business Development in both Austria, and the company's locations in the CEE countries. The financial area is jointly supervised by the two. CMS is one of the most technically innovative law firms in the country. For example, Lupl. com, an international platform for the exchange of information between legal departments and law firms, was developed together with external partners and very successfully launched on the market. Johannes Juranek: “New technologies and digital offers are of great importance to our clients and appreciated by companies and public authorities alike. In recent years, we have repeatedly proven that we are among the market leaders in the digitalisation area. We want to further strengthen this position and expand it in all areas.” Gün­ther Hanslik: "We are constantly improving the quality of our services. All employees have been actively involved in our process of change as we set course for a thriving future together." The new management will also focus on the topics of sustainability, increased CEE integration and diversity. Günther Hanslik: “At CMS, we are mindful of resources in all departments. We are also the first law firm to have an eco-profit cer­ti­fic­ate.” The bar is also set high for the new management team in terms of economic success: CMS Austria achieved the highest turnover in its history in 2021. “This is a great challenge for us, which we gladly accept, and which motivates us to become even better to meet the high demands,” says Johannes Juranek.

CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz has leapt ahead this year in the JUVE list of the top 20 Austrian law firms to work for. The clear improvement from 8th to 2nd place is particularly gratifying when one considers...
