Graduates

At Kennedys we offer a vibrant and supportive working environment built upon our core values; we are approachable and responsive, we show respect for people, we are trustworthy and straightforward and we ensure that we deliver economic solutions for our clients.

Our trainees experience early responsibility and client contact as we find that this produces excellent solicitors capable of running their own caseloads once they qualify. We therefore recruit graduates who are confident, articulate and sociable, who are team players, self-aware and resourceful.

 

Why Kennedys?

Why start your career with Kennedys?  We offer our graduates a balanced culture of work, reward and personal enjoyment including:

Working with multi-national firms
Our clients include the major insurance firms as well as multi-national corporations, listed companies and government agencies.

Work/Life balance
We recognise the importance of having a healthy work/life balance.  At Kennedys, we are responsive to client demands and tight deadlines but also maintain respect for each individual’s own personal time.

Diversity & Equal Opportunity
At Kennedys, we reward and promote staff on the basis of their work.  We have a healthy growing partnership through both lateral hires and internal promotion with a mixture of both male and female partners.

Early responsibility
We provide training and mentorship to enable you to develop your technical and commercial skills.  We also assign responsibility early on to assist you to work independently and gain in confidence.

Nurturing and friendly work environment
More than half of your waking hours are spent at work so it’s important that you are comfortable in your work environment and are able to call your colleagues friends.  At Kennedys, we organise regular social outings for staff to unwind and get to know each other.

 

We are currently recruiting for 2011 and 2012 trainees. Application deadline for 2011 intake is: 30 April 2010. To apply, click here.
