OGC Placement Scheme & Training Contract

Job description

Our Office of the General Counsel (OGC), the Firm's internal legal team, is seeking trainee solicitors for 2028. Successful applicants will take part in our placement schemes in Leeds, London or Manchester and will be assessed for a training contract during the scheme.

The OGC is our in-house legal team who advises the Firm on its professional and regulatory obligations and provides support and guidance across a range of areas. A training contract within the OGC will give you a broad range of experience and your two-year training contract will cover four seats in any of the following areas: commercial and regulation, conflicts and escalations, financial crime and sanctions, data protection and claims and complaints. At the end of your two-year training contract, you will be eligible to qualify into the OGC team. The OGC Placement Scheme & Training Contract is a separate process from our private practice Placement Scheme opportunity, therefore you will not be placed in any of our 4 core practice areas outside of the OGC throughout your training contract.

We offer a week-long Easter work placement in London, and two-week summer work placements in Leedsand Manchester.

Please note we accept one application per intake year. Therefore you can only apply for the OGC placement scheme or one of the other placement schemes. You can also only apply to one location so please ensure you have decided where you would like to be based before applying.

What we are looking for

Candidates who are within their penultimate year of a law degree or final year of a non-law degree, or beyond, and are on track for or have graduated with a 2:1 or above are eligible to apply. Please note that we consider applications from those who have received a 2:2 with mitigating circumstances.
