What we offer

What we offer

The team provides a wide variety of key training programmes as part of continuing professional development, to support you in delivering managed legal services to a range of clients. 

Since establishing the Newcastle office, employees have also been provided with a range of training to mobilise and integrate the team, and to ensure the team operates to Clifford Chance's professional standards which has included IT, legal tech and legal-specific training.

You will be supported to work in a hybrid way with the expectation of working from the office for a minimum of 50% of your time if you are a paralegal or 80% if you are a paralegal apprentice. This allows you to get the most out of working with your colleagues, connecting and sharing ideas in the office, while also offering the benefits of working from home.
