Description

Our Trainee Scheme offers graduates the chance to learn from some of the most respected legal professionals in the Channel Islands and work towards becoming a UK-qualified lawyer, typically via the SQE route.

This two-year paid programme is designed to provide a comprehensive and well-rounded experience. You'll rotate through our core legal departments, including exposure to key support teams, gaining a deep understanding of how a leading law firm operates.

You'll have access to structured training, guidance, and supervision for both your studies and practical experience, all within a collaborative and supportive environment that encourages growth.

Upon completion, you'll have the chance to be considered for a permanent role with us, opening the door to a rewarding career in law.

This is a highly competitive scheme, so we look for individuals who are passionate about a career in law and demonstrate drive, enthusiasm, initiative, strong academic ability, and excellent communication skills. Applicants must be local residents and hold (or be on track to achieve) a 2:1 degree or higher.

Your Application

You will be asked to upload your CV and cover letter.

Please ensure your CV includes your academic grades, the institutions you studied at and any work experience.

Your cover letter should include more information about yourself. Please let us know why you want to become a lawyer, why you wish to train at Bedell Cristin and what qualities you think you can bring to the firm.

These can be in either PDF or Word document format.

Applications close at the end of February 2026.

About Bedell Cristin

Since 1939, clients have come to us for straight-talking legal advice.

Today you'll find the same sound judgement and pragmatism across our offices in the BVI, Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Jersey, London, and Singapore.

Our smart, approachable teams design informed, and inventive legal solutions. The expertise you expect, offered with a refreshing simplicity and clarity. We also invest in mutually committed relationships with our clients as we believe strong foundations make for smoother roads.

Over the years, we've learned the importance of these principles, while playing our part in defining the modern offshore legal industry.

Our founder, George Bedell, helped establish Jersey's progressive tax system. And the island's first female advocate, Anita Regal, hailed from Bedell Cristin.

We are proud of where we have come from - and we value what we have learned along the way.
