Spring Vacation Scheme

The opportunity

Spring Vacation Scheme: Monday 12 to Friday 23 April 2027

There are up to 15 positions available on our Spring Vacation Scheme.

Our two-week, hybrid vacation scheme is both an opportunity for you to showcase your potential as a trainee solicitor and decide whether Bird & Bird is the right firm for you.

All vacation scheme participants will be assessed for a training contract.

As a vacation scheme participant, you will:

- Spend time working in one department for two weeks, undertaking real work to give you exposure to the life of a trainee at Bird & Bird;

- Take part in a range of formal assessments to enable us to consider you for a training contract;

- Spend time with our trainees, associates and partners, immersing yourself in our culture; and

- Spend one day each week working from home to get a sense of what it's like to be a trainee solicitor in an agile working environment.

At the time of submitting your application, you should:

- have achieved AAB in your A-Levels; and

- be on track to achieve 2:1 in your degree.

AND

- be in your final year of a non-law degree; or

- be in the penultimate or final year law degree; or

- have already graduated.
