Job description
The Government Legal Profession (GLP) Legal Trainee Scheme offers successful applicants the chance to start their legal careers with a training contract in the Government Legal Department (GLD), including GLD Commercial, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), the National Crime Agency (NCA), or the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).
Whilst many of the trainee positions are based in London, HMRC is also offering opportunities in Manchester and Bristol and GLD is also offering a small number of opportunities in Leeds.
Salaries will differ according to Department. Please see www.gov.uk/glp
Over a two-year training contract, trainee solicitors will spend six months each in four seats. The GLP otherwise treats trainee solicitors the same.
Work and on-the-job training depends upon the GLP department in which trainees are placed. However, wherever you are placed, you can expect to be fully involved in a range of interesting work and play an active role in casework. You may also liaise with government ministers, senior policy makers and counsel and may have the opportunity to participate in the legislative process itself.
Please note that successful candidates will be expected to undergo Security Check (SC) clearance.
