Summer Work Placement - Office of the General Counsel (OGC)

Job description

Our Office of the General Counsel (OGC), the Firm's internal legal team, is seeking trainee solicitors in 2026 and 2027. The team 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 escalations, financial crime and sanctions, data protection and claims and complaints. You'll receive training that's tailored to your needs and interests while gaining a first-hand insight into life at one of the UK's most respected law firms from the heart of the Firm. You will be supported by some of our brightest minds and challenged with meaningful work, helping you develop the connections and skills you need to become a trusted lawyer.

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.

This is a scheme as unique as you are. As well as informative sessions, group exercises, assessed work and plenty of time at your desk, you will attend social events with a range of people across the office. It's a real chance to get to know our people and our culture. Successful candidates will then go on to be offered a training contract with the firm to commence in 2026 or 2027.

What we are looking for

We require a 2.1 honours degree (or equivalent). We will consider applications from those who have received a 2.2 with mitigating circumstances. But what will really open doors to an outstanding career here is the real you. At Addleshaw Goddard, we’re looking for original minds and collaborative spirits alongside motivation, drive and commercial awareness. We’re constantly delighted by the diverse backgrounds of our best lawyers, and we’re open to law and non-law graduates alike, as well as those looking to change career.
