Slaughter and May Opportunities

Great minds think differently. 

Opportunities 

There are five distinct differences that set us apart from other global law firms. Firstly, our way of working, we are multi-specialists performing a wider range of transactions. Secondly, our international approach, we tackle the nuances of international law by building relationships with the best firms in each jurisdiction. Thirdly, our people, we draw strength from individuality. Our view on time, with no internal billing targets we foster a sense of togetherness. Finally, our collegiate partnership defines our unique firm culture. These qualities make Slaughter and May the ideal firm for starting and developing a career.

You will also have the opportunity to meet with a member of our Trainee Recruitment team for individual feedback on your CV.
