About this role
We are seeking a bright, adaptable, and motivated junior trainee to join our Corporate/M&A team in Kyiv. The ideal candidate will demonstrate genuine enthusiasm, strong initiative, and a proactive approach to learning and contributing within a fast-paced transactional practice.
Why Join Us
• Global exposure – Work within one of the largest international law firms, collaborating with teams across Europe and beyond. • High-quality work – Be part of high-profile, cutting-edge disputes from early case strategy to enforcement. • Early responsibility – Gain meaningful client exposure and hands-on experience from the start. • Structured development – Access comprehensive training programmes and continuous learning opportunities. • Supportive environment – Learn from experienced lawyers in a collaborative and ambitious team.
About You You should have excellent attention to detail, strong organisational and time management skills, and the ability to prioritise competing deadlines. A solid academic background in law is essential, and exceptional communication skills—both written and verbal—are required. The ability to work collaboratively as part of a team is just as important as the ability to manage tasks independently. While previous experience in corporate law or transactional work (such as banking or finance) is an advantage, it is not essential. We provide access to in-house training programmes and day-to-day mentoring to help trainees quickly build their knowledge and skills. Most importantly, we value candidates who are eager to learn, willing to work hard, and have a clear interest in the corporate/M&A sector.
Your Career Starts Here This is a fantastic opportunity to join a team engaged in high-quality transactional work. The successful candidate will be entrusted with real responsibilities, have the chance to participate in business development activities, and begin growing their professional network within a supportive and collaborative environment.
This role offers an exceptional foundation for a long-term legal career. You will gain exposure to the full lifecycle of corporate/M&A projects.
If you are ready to develop your skills in a fast-paced, international environment, we would love to hear from you.
