Two years. Four teams. One global firm.


This is a graduate programme designed to help you find your feet, discover your strengths and shape your career — no matter what you studied.

At Baker McKenzie Belfast, we know that choosing your first graduate job is a big decision.

That’s why we’ve built our two-year Graduate Programme to give you room to explore. You’ll rotate through four of our key business teams, gaining hands-on experience, building lasting skills, and working alongside people who are here to support you from day one.

You don’t need a specific degree or previous experience. We’re looking for people who are curious, motivated, and ready to grow.

And you won’t be doing it alone. You’ll join a cohort of fellow graduates, with regular socials, friendly faces across the floor, and access to the full support of a global law firm that truly values its people.

What makes our Graduate Programme different?

  • Open to graduates from any discipline
  • Four rotations across key business teams: Anti-Money Laundering, Procurement, Legal Project Management and Process & Quality
  • Two years to develop your skills and discover what suits you
  • Join a friendly, supportive cohort of fellow graduates
  • Based in our Belfast Centre, with hybrid working and a brilliant office culture

What you’ll get

  • A full-time, two-year contract
  • Hybrid working and flexible hours
  • Private health cover, life assurance, income protection
  • Professional training and mentoring
  • Regular social events and active staff-led committees

Think opportunity. Think community. Think Baker McKenzie.
