The benefits also include 5% company contribution into your pension scheme, life assurance, income protection, and access to additional benefits such as the cycle to work scheme.

The company has an active social calendar and runs regular events to bring our people together from across the UK. Whilst you will be based in Christchurch we want you to feel part of a bigger team. We offer a friendly and supportive environment where everyone can bring their best self to work.

The role is based from the Christchurch office and it will be essential to optimise the time available to collaborate with colleagues. We recognise however that the way people work is changing and the traditional 9-5 lifestyle is starting to transform. We appreciate that different individuals thrive in different ways and we operate a freedom to grow way of working. In a nut-shell, this is about helping our employees to have the freedom needed to find the working style that suits them, so that they achieve their full potential and bring the best version of themselves to work. Our guiding principle we live by is: if it works for you, your team and your client then it works for Mayer Brown.

How to apply

When selecting our graduates we obviously want to ensure that you have the right skills and aptitude, but more than that we want to know about you as a person.

In the first instance, please email a copy of your CV to Steven Lecoq slecocq@mayerbrown.co.uk and accompany this with a letter setting out why you are keen to work for Mayer Brown as a graduate in the Christchurch office. We encourage all applicants to be open and transparent, since ensuring a good fit is important for everyone. We are prepared to be flexible on a start date in 2024 for the right person.

We only accept graduate applications directly and not via any intermediaries.

At Mayer Brown, we embrace diversity and are committed to being an inclusive employer. We encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds, recognising the strength that diverse teams bring. Our goal is to create a supportive and welcoming environment for all members of our team.
