WHO WE ARE

Ashurst is a leading international law firm advising corporates, financial institutions and governments.

MORE ABOUT US

We have core businesses in corporate, finance, energy, resources and infrastructure. In March 2012, Ashurst and Blake Dawson combined forces to form one global team under the Ashurst brand. With over 400 partners and 1,700 lawyers in total, we offer the international insight of a global network combined with local market knowledge.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

We expect common sense, discipline, professionalism, good judgement, creative ideas and an intelligent, international and commercial perspective. We also look for those with the confidence to express themselves well. You will need to be on track for a strong 2:1 in your undergraduate degree. And with our work stretching so far around the globe, foreign languages will weigh in your favour. We have out gay staff at all levels and our LGBT network, Spectrum, is actively involved in both community support and business-focused events.
