who are we looking for?


We are looking for people with partnership potential who have the energy and ambition to become successful lawyers in their chosen field. The people we attract tend to be high achievers – academically well qualified, independent minded and often impressively rounded (we seem to have more than our fair share of talented musicians and linguists).

Our trainees are part of the legal team. We will give you significant responsibility early on, with your own cases and plenty of client contact. Although there is a friendly and professional support structure, you need to be the kind of person who will thrive on the challenges that real-life legal work throws at you.

Russell-Cooke is an equal opportunity employer and an Investor in People. We welcome applications from people irrespective of race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion or disability.
