Job Description

At Clifford Chance in Brussels, you benefit from the best of both worlds: the collegiality and agility of a close-knit office combined with the opportunities and international reach of one of the world’s leading law firms. Through our integrated global network and Global Product Groups, we advise market-leading clients on complex cross-border matters. Whichever area of the business you join, you will become part of an innovative, diverse and ambitious team, with the opportunity to build a truly international career.

Our summer programme runs from July until September included and within that period, we offer a number of students a one-month internship. During this internship, we provide students with a temporary employment contract subject to special conditions applicable to students in Belgium.

Qualifications

Our summer schemes are open to law students who have completed the first two years of their Belgian bachelor’s degree. We are looking to recruit talented and articulate students. In selecting candidates, we are most interested in personal qualities, ambition, and potential, but we also expect you to have an excellent academic record.

Additional Information

Interested candidates should apply before the end of November, in the year prior to which they are seeking to participate in the summer programme. Please upload your CV with picture, cover letter and official transcripts/scorecards for each year at law school.
