I don't think the firm has run training contracts after its UK arm went into administration several years ago.

It was 5 years ago. A lot has happened since then.
The UK entity went into administration, but the Chinese entity has since reopened an office in London. As it was a Swiss Verein, that could all easily happen.
I doubt they will recruit TCA for a while though - although the SQE could mean they offer QWE.
