Shearman & Sterling People

From the outset, you will be treated as an integral part of our team and your creative contribution to transactions will be encouraged.  Most of the transactions you will work on will have an international and multi-jurisdictional element.

One of the advantages of training with Shearman & Sterling in London is that, although the office is growing rapidly, you will be part of a smaller team in a relatively informal yet professional atmosphere.  You will be given real and challenging work at an early stage and your enthusiasm, intellect and opinion will be greatly valued.

The firm and its individual practice groups provide many opportunities for trainees to get to know one another and the partners, counsel, associates and other staff.  A wide range of social events are also held throughout the year.
