Trainee Recruitment

Thank you for visiting our website.

An important part of our philosophy is the recruitment of individuals who have the potential to excel and who will hopefully achieve the position of assistant solicitor with the firm once their training contact has concluded.

We have retained a considerable proportion of our trainee intake in recent years and are looking to continue that trend. Growth from within is very much a priority. Indeed, no less than 6 of the present partners originally joined the firm as trainees.

We usually recruit three trainees per year with training contracts commencing on 1st September each year.

Not surprisingly, any applicant to the firm must have impressive A level grades and no less than a 2.1 degree from a recognised university. You need to be enthusiastic and committed and have the ability to use your initiative. Confidence and a sense of humour are essential. Shrinking violets need not apply.

If selected for a training contract you will spend 2 years working in 4 different departments and in each you will receive a high level of training whilst experiencing considerable client contact.

Applications for September 2009 and 2010 are now closed. If you would like to apply for a training contract for September 2011 then send your CV with a covering letter via post or email (Word documents please) to our Training Partner, Ann Robinson. The deadline for September 2011 applications is 31st January 2010.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Good luck
