What we offer you

A salary of £500 per each week of the scheme.

Application rules

What we're looking for

Our spring vacation schemes are open to penultimate-year students, finalists and graduates.

We consider applicants from any degree discipline, with a keen interest in commercial law.

We look for candidates with a strong and consistent academic record. We typically look for a minimum of AAB at A-level (or equivalent). At university, applicants should be on track to achieve, or have achieved, consistent 2:1s across modules, with an average mark of 63% or above in each year of study (or the international equivalent).

We consider contextual recruitment data and if mitigating circumstances have affected your academic performance at any stage of your education, we strongly encourage you to explain these in your application, as they will be taken into consideration.
