Clarke Willmott Summer Vacation Scheme 2023
This summer, we are giving candidates the chance to experience what it’s like to be part of our firm by offering a weeklong paid placement in our Taunton and Birmingham offices.
Our Vacation Scheme is the perfect opportunity to get an insight into the day-to-day life of working at Clarke Willmott. You will have the opportunity to work with a team of specialists in a particular area of law, doing real work with expert supervision. You will also spend some time attending workshops to improve your legal skills and aid professional development and will have plenty of opportunities to meet others, ask questions and socialise.
You will be immersed in our positive work culture and feel empowered, valued and free to be yourself in a safe and supportive environment.
What you need to know
We have placements in our Taunton and Birmingham offices and welcome applications from students or recent graduates (degree or equivalent).
The vacation scheme is an in-person placement and will run from Monday 10th July 2023 to Friday 14th July 2023 in your allocated office. You will receive a salary of £409.00 for the week and your working hours each day will be 9 am to 5.30 pm. If you are unable to fulfil full-time hours, please do not be deterred from applying. We understand the challenges of balancing life commitments or circumstances with a full-time role and want to ensure we can support you in the best way we can.
We are looking for individuals who can demonstrate an interest in law, and have the potential for creative excellence.
We want the experience to be enjoyable, informative and engaging for you. As part of the placement, you will be informally assessed by your allocated team and successful candidates will have the opportunity to join our excellent Vacation Scheme Mentorship Program. Our Mentorship Program is a fantastic way to continue to build on and develop your professional relationships and knowledge once the Vacation Scheme has ended.
