An opportunity to undertake an apprenticeship at the firm, commencing in 2024.

What does this apprenticeship entail?

The firm says: "At BDB Pitmans we value all routes to qualification, recognising your potential to carve out a successful career in law. With our six year Level 7 Solicitor Apprenticeship programme you can become a qualified solicitor by completing a law degree and passing the Solicitors Qualifying Exams, with BDB Pitmans covering all of your tuition and assessment fees.

Because we work in small teams, you will benefit from collaborating alongside senior lawyers from the outset, earning a salary whilst gaining real-life legal experience across multiple practice areas. Our supportive, inclusive culture and genuine work-life balance provide opportunities to develop your technical skills, extend your legal knowledge and grow your client relationships, whilst providing you with enough time to dedicate to your apprenticeship studies."

Who can apply?
  • You will need to be on track to achieve, or have achieved, a minimum of CCC at A level (or equivalent) and have at least 5 GCSEs at Grade 4 or above, including English and Maths.
  • This opportunity is aimed at anyone without a degree including those who are currently in Year 13. You must also have the right to work in the UK.
  • The firm understands that for some candidates, there may be extenuating circumstances. If you feel that this applies to you, please do let the firm know on your application form as they would not want to miss out on hearing from talented individuals who have not been able to demonstrate their full potential due to reasons outside of their control.​
Apply here by 19 February 2024.
