Our new Stockholm office will be taking on three law students from universities across Sweden for a full-time position as Junior Associate (biträdande jurist).
Who are we?
Osborne Clarke has a strong international presence, with offices across Europe, Asia and the US – and we provide support to US clients looking to expand into Europe. Our Stockholm office opened in September 2017 and is led by a dynamic, growing team with many years’ experience advising both Nordic and international businesses in Commercial/IP, Corporate/M&A, Banking & Finance, and Real Estate transactions.
About the position
For our full-time Junior Associate position, we are looking for the brightest talent to work with some of the top-tier businesses in Sweden and in the world. To be considered for the position as our new colleague, you need to demonstrate a genuine interest in commercial and corporate law and have excellent academic qualifications.
Our focus is on your training and development. We offer you the opportunity to train at an international law firm with some of the best lawyers in their respective fields. The work is very varied – you will have the opportunity to network widely within the firm and at all levels. You will learn how to apply the law in real situations and tailor advice to a client’s needs and develop key presentation and professional skills while given the chance to directly interact with clients.
We will assign you a ‘mentor’ – an associate who will assist you with any questions you might have and ensure that you always have interesting work to do. You will immediately become one of the team and be involved in the firm’s social events and given plenty of opportunities to bond with your colleagues.
At the end of the year, we will discuss where you are in your career, what your aims and goals are and how we can help you meet those goals.
Who are you?
We seek the brightest individuals who are highly driven and committed to provide high quality work for our clients. We are passionate about culture and teamwork and have an informal, collegial and fun culture. We strive to be the best law firm by being approachable, knowledgeable and straightforward. Clients appreciate us for these characteristics and are loyal to the firm because of this and we strive to hire individuals who share this approach to legal advice.
We require that you have completed you law studies (including thesis) when the programme starts. We also expect that you have very good academic qualifications. You should have very good knowledge of spoken and written English. The quality of your application determines whether you will be invited to an interview with our associates and partners at our offices, where the final decision will be made.
Period
Full-time position. Two intakes – at the beginning of September and at the beginning of February.
