We are currently recruiting for our 2027 Trainee Solicitor Programme
As a Trainee Solicitor you'll have the opportunity to discover which areas of law interest and engage you most. Some people are born litigators, others love the dynamics of a commercial deal and some absorb themselves in employment law or restructuring. Our Trainee Solicitor Programme is designed to encourage and develop every person's unique qualities.
All of our Trainee Solicitors work within our main departments:
- Corporate
- Disputes & Investigations
- Finance
- Real Estate
Requirements
We are looking for candidates who have the drive to succeed as top class lawyers and become future leaders of our firm. Whilst an undergraduate degree in law is not a prerequisite, candidates need to demonstrate academic achievement and experience relevant to a career in the legal sector. Candidates intending on following the IPLS route will also need to evidence that they have completed the core law modules required by Law Society of Northern Ireland.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We look for evidence of the following attributes:
- Intellectual Ability, Judgement & Commercial Awareness
- Ability to Build Relationships
- Commitment to Career Choice
- Motivation and Initiative
- Effective Communication
- Resilience

Use of artificial intelligence (AI)
While AI can be a helpful tool, we value authenticity in our hiring process. We do not accept its use as part of our application process as it makes it harder to get a true sense of who you are and what you bring to the role - applications found to rely on AI generated content may be disqualified. We appreciate your understanding.
Reasonable Accommodation
If you have a disability or impairment which may prevent you from completing our online application form, please email careersbelfast@algoodbody.com so that we can ensure to accommodate your needs in the most appropriate way possible.
