Nothing beats on the ground experience.

Join our vacation scheme and we'll make sure you're involved in quality work and will try to help you experience any areas of law you're particularly interested in. You'll be sitting with qualified lawyers and tackling some case work. You'll also benefit from an organised programme of interactive sessions, talks and social events.

A vacation scheme gives you a great opportunity to talk informally to existing trainees, lawyers, partners and support teams to find out just why the law and Stephenson Harwood are such attractive career options.

...every bit as interesting...

Summer vacation scheme student

"The work was every bit as interesting and varied as I'd hoped – I sat in on a case which was being heard in the Court of Appeal, and conducted research on a niche point of law for a shipping dispute case."
