We have one vacancy for a third six pupil, commencing September or October 2018, with a view to tenancy. We are looking for a motivated, ambitious candidate who can demonstrate excellent intellectual ability, persuasive communication skills and a genuine interest in our areas of practice. The successful candidate can expect to be in court regularly and have opportunities to do paperwork, and will be supported by a mentor. Given the work opportunities, any third six will be unfunded.
Your application should include:
- a covering letter explaining your interest in Hailsham Chambers;
- your CV;
- two recent pieces of written work (suitably anonymised), preferably one advice and one pleading;
- two references.
We ask that your referees include at least one recent pupil supervisor and we encourage referees to email us direct. Applications should be addressed to Nicola Rushton QC and emailed to pupillage@hailshamchambers.com.
If you have any questions about a third six pupillage with us, please contact us on the above email address or telephone our senior clerk, Stephen Smith.
Applications will be considered during September and in any event should be received before the end of September 2018.
We are passionate about encouraging applications from a diverse range of candidates and adhere to and support the Bar Council’s policies on equal opportunity and non-discrimination. We are happy to make any reasonable accommodation for candidates with disabilities.
