A training contract at Pinsent Masons represents the first stage of a focussed development programme that will enable you to reach your full potential.  Our training programme has been developed in-house; this ensures you receive a balanced and comprehensive introduction to the profession.  

Trainees move departments every six months, this gives you the necessary time to develop the legal and commercial depth of understanding required to take on real responsibility. During the second year of training you will also have the opportunity to undertake a secondment to either our clients or an international office.

Pinsent Masons has an ambitious strategy for growth in the years ahead.  Our London office will be stronger, our international reach will be greater, but our values will remain the same.  Anyone looking to join the firm will need to buy into this vision.  

To achieve the above we need exceptional individuals.  This is not about the school or university you attended but your unique qualities as an individual.  To be successful you will need to possess excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, have the ability to develop strong working relationships with both clients and colleagues, finally you must have a genuine interest in our clients and the business world.  How you demonstrate this is up to you.
