Vacation Scheme 2025

People are the key to our success. With our vacation scheme we are looking for our partners of the future.

Successful candidates benefit from close supervision working alongside experienced lawyers.

We expect our trainees to get involved in client work straight away and to make valuable contributions to the firm and our success. We also often have opportunities for future trainees to join us as paralegals before their training so that they can really hit the ground running. Gordons trainees can expect training and support from across the firm throughout.

There is always fierce competition for our graduate trainee solicitor places. Although we do look for academic achievement, we also place strong emphasis on character and are looking for people with a great attitude who can forge their career with us.

Are we right for you?

Gordons is an ambitious, straight talking, commercial law firm based in Leeds and Bradford.

Our great reputation means that our client base extends nationally and beyond. At Gordons you get to work with some fantastic businesses and well-known brands.

Our lawyers are bright, hardworking and committed to providing the best service to our clients. We want everyone who works here to contribute to our success, so we provide a supportive environment and opportunities for them to do so.

We offer all the benefits of working for a large, national firm, such as focussed career progression and a wide range of specialisms, alongside the friendly and down-toearth ethos of a smaller firm, where you get to know everyone.
