Sintons opens next round of graduate recruitment

Law firm Sintons has launched its latest training contract recruitment drive, continuing its longstanding commitment to supporting the next generation of legal talent.

Over the course of many years, Sintons has given opportunities to young lawyers, supporting them through their qualification and beyond, with many going on to enjoy long careers with the firm with ongoing progression and development. A number of current partners and senior figures began life at Sintons as graduate trainees.

The firm is well known across the region and beyond for its commitment to supporting emerging talent, with its graduate programme continuing to recruit even through the many challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now, as Sintons continues to invest in the next generation of young legal excellence, it is opening recruitment for training contracts to begin in September 2025.

Recruitment will begin on 03 January 2023 and close on 30 April 2023. Those shortlisted from the first stage will be invited into Sintons in June to meet with Sintons’ graduate recruitment team and other people from across the firm, ahead of final interviews in July.

Gemma Hewitt, head of people services at Sintons, said: “We are very proud of our longstanding commitment to aspiring young lawyers and offering opportunities despite the most difficult of economic climates – while many firms paused or contracted their graduate recruitment programmes during the pandemic, the value we place on the importance of bringing young lawyers into the team was shown by the fact we continued as we ordinarily would.

“We have a vibrant and dynamic trainee group at Sintons who are supported by some of the leading lawyers in their specialist fields on a regional and national scale. Our lawyers, which also include our solicitor apprentices, work closely together and enjoy strong relationships both in and outside of the workplace, with our trainees playing a central role in the firm’s annual trainee challenge and other CSR activities.

“Joining Sintons as a trainee offers a host of opportunities for professional and personal development, working within an ambitious and supportive firm which prides itself on the quality of its people and supports them in every way possible. We look forward to hearing from any aspiring lawyers who would like to join us.”
