Job Description

A vacation clerkship is the perfect way to learn about working at Clifford Chance and meet our people. We recruit students that we believe have the potential and ambition to join us once their degrees are completed.

The clerkship program allows you to follow the life of a lawyer at Clifford Chance closely - you will sit in two different practice areas, working with our lawyers on real, live client projects. You will be treated as a part of our team and given opportunities to demonstrate your ability.

To ensure you get the most from your program we will assign you a mentor - an experienced lawyer who will help you settle in and answer any questions you have.

Across the four-week program we will also host sessions from professionals across the firm to give you a real insight into how our firm works. You will be given the opportunity to interact with team members from around the global network and get to see what life is really like for a Clifford Chance lawyer.

Qualifications

To be successful, you will need to demonstrate the following:

  • Your potential to become a first-class lawyer and your willingness to take advantage of the many opportunities that you encounter.
  • Exhibit ambition, drive and commitment, the ability to articulate your ideas clearly, and the desire to build relationships and deliver outstanding service.
  • Business awareness, a keen commercial insight and a strong ability to lead and manage.
  • Possess consistently strong academic record.

Our Summer Clerkship Program will run from November December 2025. If successful, you will spend the induction program in the Sydney office getting to know the rest of the clerkship cohort and Sydney colleagues. Details to be confirmed during the selection process.

As a part of your application, please submit an up-to-date academic transcript, curriculum vitae and cover letter.
