Spring Vacation Scheme 2027
Job Information Posting Date 01-Oct-2026 Requisition ID 3644 States/Provinces/Cities London Location Type Hybrid Business Unit Practice Function Other Legal Staff Full Time or Part Time Full Time
Description & Requirements Our Spring Vacation Scheme is designed to give you a realistic taste of what it’s like working for a global law firm. We’ll involve you in live work. You’ll attend client meetings and network with fee-earners of all levels - Partners, Associates and Trainee Solicitors. A lunch with our Management Committee will also give you a better understanding of the Firm's overall strategy.
Over the course of three weeks, we'll give you experience in two different seats, with an allocated supervisor and a buddy in each. Since pro bono work is such an important aspect of what we do, you'll also get to undertake a pro bono project.
Along the way, there'll be training sessions to help familiarise you with some of our typical transactions and develop some of the key skills you'll need as a Trainee Solicitor. You'll also take part in a client pitch exercise, which is a great opportunity to work closely with other people on the Vacation Scheme.
The scheme is run over three weeks between Monday 05 April and Friday 23 April 2027.
