Keen to become part of a truly global, collaborative team of professionals? Your journey begins here.

Our Hong Kong office is looking for one more trainee solicitor to join us this September.

Our training contracts last for two years and you will gain experience in three practice groups (plus six months on secondment to one of our international offices). Your seat preferences are taken into account when you join the firm and you are able to have a say in your own career development as your training contract progresses.

Am I eligible?

We are looking for candidates with excellent academic records, good commercial and current awareness and strong communication skills. Fluency in English is a pre-requisite and Cantonese and Mandarin skills are strongly desirable.

When should I apply?

You may apply now if you have already completed the PCLL, or are expecting to have completed it before this September. 

How do I apply?

You may apply via LinkedIn or our careers website - make sure to attach your cover letter, CV and a copy of your latest law school transcript.

PCLL and conversion examinations

Hong Kong trainee solicitors need to take and pass the PCLL course in Hong Kong before they can begin their training. The firm pays for your PCLL course and any necessary conversion examinations. We also provide a stipend for your living expenses during the PCLL year.
