Throughout the week, you'll gain exposure to our work, learn from legal professionals, and experience our collaborative culture.

Our 2027 Vacation Scheme is the primary route to securing a 2028 Training Contract at Kennedys, although we may also recruit directly for Training Contracts where business needs require.
