We are delighted to launch the application process for our summer internship and trainee lawyer programmes.

Nicola White, Director of Learning and Development said: "At Matheson, our focus is to build our future talent community with diverse and ambitious graduates who want to make a meaningful contribution to the continued growth and success of our clients and the firm.  Our role in supporting interns and trainees is to help them achieve purpose, support them in building their own career path, provide them with opportunities to give back and, through our award-winning development and mentoring programmes, support them in becoming the best business lawyers they can be." 

From the moment you start at Matheson, we will support you to learn as much as possible about who we are, give you access to the people and clients you will work alongside, and develop the skills you need to excel with us.  You will be involved in some of the biggest cases and commercial transactions in Ireland in an exciting, deadline-driven environment.  You will be directly involved in choosing these rotations.  You will also have regular opportunities to complete a rotation in our London and Cork offices.

Our comprehensive approach ensures that you will develop the right skills through a combination of in-office partner and associate mentoring, project work, formal training sessions and regular feedback.  We also support flexible working for our trainees through our Matheson Hybrid Working Policy.  In addition, our Impactful Business Programme will offer you a range of opportunities to get involved and volunteer in an area that's important to your own personal purpose.  We invest in developing our people, seek to give back to society and are strong advocates for our economy. Our team draws on broad industry experience and networks to create meaningful outcomes for our clients, our colleagues and our society. 

Fundamental to how we do business, is to deliver excellent services and develop the best legal and business talent.  Everyone at Matheson has a role to play in making a sustainable and positive impact and we empower our people to deliver change and support growth and innovation to lead the legal industry into the future.
