4 days ago
To be eligible for the 2026 Law Graduate Program you must have completed a Seasonal Clerkship at Russell Kennedy within the last two years.
At Russell Kennedy we are very proud of our culture and we work hard to recruit people that we believe will flourish in our environment. We welcome confident, skilful people who enjoy working as part of a team. Russell Kennedy has an impressive client list which gives talented new Lawyers the opportunity to practice in specialised areas. The size of our firm also ensures that all staff have a large amount of contact with each other and with our clients.
We are committed to providing high quality legal advice to our clients, a rewarding working environment for our staff and a sound learning environment for our Law Graduates.
**Russell Kennedy Law Graduate Program**
Russell Kennedy partners with the College of Law enabling graduates to complete their Practical Legal Training within the first 18 weeks of commencement of the program. Regular on-the-job feedback is provided during each rotation, as well as a formal feedback session at the end of each rotation with People & Culture and a Principal.
Russell Kennedy provides a supportive environment for your growth and development. Law Graduates are allocated a Graduate Lead for the duration of their Graduate Program. They meet with their Graduate Lead on a regular basis to discuss their career progression, rotations and assist with personal development. In addition to this, we also allocate Law Graduates a Rotational Supervisor and Graduate Support in the same practice group for each rotation. They assist with the transition from university to full-time employment.
Our learning and development program is carefully designed to give you the exposure and experience to make you an excellent Lawyer with the skills and confidence to handle whatever challenges and opportunities come your way.
As part of your ongoing professional development, you will benefit from attending regular in-house Continuing Professional Development (CPD) seminars, client functions, and external training and development events.
At Russell Kennedy, we respect and celebrate the things that make each of us different. The firm is dedicated to creating an environment that is characterised by equal access and respected participation of all groups and individuals. This is regardless of all differences, including culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity, age, religion, personal circumstances, physical features, abilities and disabilities, socioeconomics and sexual orientation.
