Broadfield Trainees follow the SQE pathway to qualification. For individuals that are yet to complete their SQE exams, the firm will sponsor the future Trainee to complete a year-long preparation course, the LLM Legal Practice (SQE1&amp;2) with the University of Law. We recruit one year in advance so that future Trainees can finish their SQE exams before joining the firm and starting their training contract.

Our Trainees experience working in four different teams in six month long “seats” across two years. We also offer client secondments to those interested in getting exposure to working as an in-house lawyer.

After a comprehensive induction, Broadfield Trainees experience training from both department specific structured programmes and desk-side mentoring from supervisors. Trainees work with a variety of team members to explore different practice areas and gain a broad exposure to high-quality work.
