Placement details

The Pinsent Masons Paralegal Apprenticeship programme offers a great start to a professional services career. You'll be a highly valued member of a legal team that has extensive knowledge of the law and legal matters.

As an Apprentice Paralegal at Pinsent Masons, you’ll join their Vario Paralegal Centre of Excellence, working alongside experienced paralegals and lawyers on client projects.

As well as enjoying mentoring and support from the team, apprentices also spend 20% of their time studying to meet the academic requirements of their apprenticeship qualification. Once individuals complete their apprenticeship, they could progress thier career in a variety of directions, including becoming a Paralegal.

Alongside your studies, you can expect to be asked to do a wide variety of work. Some of it will be more administrative in nature, particularly in the early days of your career. Legal work will include helping to manage the documentation that is required in legal matters, including creating bundles of documents that will be used in court; drafting of legal documents such as contracts, settlement agreements and legal pleadings; legal research; helping to create and maintain template documents (precedents) that will be used in legal transactions; taking minutes and writing up notes for meetings or legal proceedings.

Successful candidates will start their roles in September 2024. This year our opportunities are available in:
