Summer Placements
Selection for traineeship is normally carried out through our summer placement programme.
We place a lot of value on our scheme which provides both the Firm and prospective
trainees with the opportunity to get to know each other. Experience has taught us
that a successful summer placement scheme for both the Firm and the student is an
excellent foundation on which to build a career.
We are looking for enthusiastic and able summer placement students who will make
a real impact and potentially join our trainee programme.
The main function of the summer student experience is to provide you with an opportunity
to work alongside experienced practitioners who will provide a practical insight

Your time with us will focus on the workings of the Firm and how we deliver our
service to our clients. During your two week placement you will also be involved
in extra-curricular activities.
