Ogier runs one of the best trainee solicitor programmes in Ireland.

We value EQ as highly as IQ and we are now recruiting for Trainee Solicitors to join our September **** intake.
Description
Operating to the standards set by Law Society, the training contract provides our trainees with the opportunity to develop their understanding of legal practice, together with an insight into their futures as solicitors.
Training contracts in the Dublin office are based on rotations in different departments, which are known as "seats".
Each seat will be for a period of three, six or nine months.
On these seats, you will learn about several practice areas within Ogier.
Ogier specialises in the following work areas:
Banking & Finance
Corporate
Dispute Resolution
Employment
Real Estate
Restructuring and Insolvency
With regular updates and a formal review at the end of every seat, you'll have an opportunity to reflect upon your personal development and progress.
We have a fully interactive learning management platform, allowing you control to track your performance as you go.
Skills Knowledge and Expertise
Our Trainee Programme has been designed to supplement the PPC course, and we are committed to supporting and developing our trainees to be extraordinary future solicitors and will support trainees through external and supplementary courses where needed.
We are looking for the very best trainees to join us: the next generation of our firm must be collaborative and tech-savvy with strong academic achievement, and ready to drive our business forward.
