A first step into the world of law

Our Legal Work Experience Programme is designed for students at the very start of their journey — whether you're finishing school or just beginning university.

It's a two-week, paid placement where you'll get a real feel for what in-house law looks like inside a global tech company. No prior experience needed — just curiosity, enthusiasm, and a willingness to learn.

Because we believe careers in law should be more accessible — and that potential can come from anywhere.

What you'll experience

This isn't about watching from the sidelines.

You'll spend two weeks embedded in our Legal team, getting involved in day-to-day work, shadowing experienced team members, and learning how legal supports every part of the business.

Along the way, you'll:

  • Gain hands-on experience in an in-house legal environment
  • Shadow team members and see real work in action
  • Build confidence in a supportive, welcoming space
  • Get practical insight to help shape your future career

And because we want to remove barriers where we can, the programme is paid, with a laptop and meal vouchers provided.

Locations: Edinburgh, London, and Glasgow
