Do you want a unique training system, a chance to make a real contribution from day one and an environment which respects and encourages your individuality?
If you are looking for a challenging career with high quality work and a law firm with a strong and established London presence and truly global reach, Jones Day is the firm for
you.
Jones Day operates as one firm worldwide with 2,200 lawyers in 30 offices. Jones Day in London is a key part of this international partnership and has around 200 lawyers, including around
44 partners and 40 trainees. This means that we can offer our lawyers a perfect combination - the intimacy and atmosphere of a medium sized City firm with access to both UK and multi-national clients.
Each Jones Day office recruits locally and retains its local culture. In London 98% of our lawyers are UK qualified.
Our approach to training allows individuals to gain general experience in a variety of disciplines and to realise their potential at an early stage. Levels of responsibility are high within a structure that provides supervision and support. This makes Jones Day's training different - ask anyone. We intend to keep it that way. To do so, we will continue to recruit trainees who want to do the highest quality work in a friendly, dynamic and co-operative environment.
