Summer Clerkship

Why join our Summer Clerkship Programme?

Our Summer Clerkship Programme is designed to provide the support and mentorship you need to succeed, not only as a student, but as a future lawyer as well.

You will build relationships, receive on the job training and get involved in hands-on work, while spending time working in each of our teams and practice areas. It’s not all work and no play – we’ll get you involved in the social side of the firm too including our sports teams and events!

Some of the benefits we offer our summer clerks are:

  • Competitive salary.

  • Rotation through all our practice groups and exposure to interesting, real world projects.

  • Professional development - the opportunity to develop not only your legal expertise but also your personal brand and reputation.

  • Mentorship - we make sure you spend time with lawyers from within the firm who have specific skill sets in areas you are interested in.

  • Involvement in our social events and sports teams.

  • Participation in our wellbeing programme - enabling a healthy work life balance.

  • Buddy system - a team member of a similar career stage who will support and look after you during your time at our firm.

  • Paid Christmas leave - so you can enjoy the summer sun.
