More About Mills & Reeve

Mills & Reeve is one of the UK’s leading full-service law firms. With 88 partners and over 800 staff, we’re a major firm that is growing quickly. We service a national and international client base from offices in Birmingham, Cambridge, Leeds, London, Manchester and Norwich.

Core sectors are: corporate and commercial, banking and finance, technology, insurance, real estate, healthcare, education, government and private client.

We welcome applications from both law and non-law disciplines. We expect you to have already gained or be on course for a 2:1 degree or equivalent. You will be ready to accept early responsibility. You need to be highly motivated with excellent interpersonal skills, confidence, commercial awareness, professional attitude and a sense of humour.

Trainees complete six four-month seats and are recruited to our Birmingham, Cambridge and Norwich offices. Trainees can temporarily move to another office to complete a seat not practised in their base office. The firm will support the move with an accommodation allowance. Trainees work alongside a partner or senior solicitor.

Training is supported by a full induction programme, regular in-house training developed by our team of Professional Support Lawyers and the professional skills course.

Job opportunities on qualification are good and a high proportion of trainees remain with the firm.
