The schemes

Here's the perfect way

We're grateful for your interest in our firm. Perhaps you'd like to get to know us better? If so, one of our vacation schemes is the perfect way to introduce yourself and find out more about our work.

What you do

You get involved in real work and interact with our clients. But we don't throw you in at the deep end. We support all our people, including you.

From the start, one of our trainees will help you settle in and find your way around. One of our qualified lawyers becomes your mentor. They will give you honest yet constructive feedback on your how you're doing.

When and where

The vacation schemes take place in the Spring and the Summer in both our Birmingham and London office.

Dates for the 2022 vacation schemes are:

Spring

Birmingham: Week commencing 4 April 2022 for one week (with the training contract assessment day on Monday 11 April)

London: Week commencing 25 April 2022 for one week (with the training contract assessment day on Tuesday 3 May)

Summer

London: Week commencing 20 June 2022 for two weeks (with the training contract assessment day on 4 July)

Birmingham: Week commencing 27 June 2022 for two weeks (with the training contract assessment day on 11 July)

We are recruiting for our 2024 training contracts via our vacation scheme only, for both locations.

And why

On a vacation scheme, you meet some of the people who made us the outstanding international law firm we are, and who still make us tick. And there's time for socialising with other people too. For instance, you get to chat to our trainees and quiz them on life and work with us.

All in all, it's a great chance to see if we're right for each other.
