Diversity and Inclusion Scheme

6 days ago


Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom Fieldfisher Full time

A diverse and inclusive workforce is crucial to our success as a leading law firm. We are committed to breaking down barriers and providing clearer access to a career in Law.

The Diversity Access Scheme is a paid two-week programme designed for students from under-represented backgrounds in Law. This programme offers a unique opportunity to gain a real-life insight into the type of work you may be asked to support as a future trainee.

During the programme, you will be seconded to a client, allowing you to experience what it's like working at a top 50 City Law firm. You will also have the chance to develop your skill-set, attend social events, and gain a good understanding of what it's like to work here.

Ahead of your joining, you will be invited to a series of workshops, which will help with the transition to the workplace. You will also be allocated a mentor – a current trainee or newly qualified solicitor who is there to answer all your questions.

By attending this programme, you will be in a strong position to apply for a training contract.

We have designed our application process to be rigorous but fair. This programme is recruited for on a rolling basis, and final outcomes may be communicated before the application deadline.

Eligibility:

  • Be on track to achieve or have achieved a 2:1 in any degree discipline
  • Be from a background that is under-represented in the legal profession

Application Process:

  1. Complete application form
  2. Complete online strengths assessment
  3. Attend virtual Assessment Centre

We are committed to providing a fair and inclusive application process.
