Corrs’ Trainee Legal Assistant Program gives you the valuable experience you need to excel in providing secretarial and administrative support to a legal team. 

The program includes:

  • an active learning environment with rotations through different legal teams

  • a comprehensive orientation program in a supportive work environment

  • full-time employment

About the program

The program has been designed to encourage and challenge you and our Legal Support Managers will be there every step of the way. They will provide feedback at the end of each rotation so you can continue to grow and develop.

You will also be assigned a coach for the duration of the program. Your coach will share their experience and knowledge, and provide advice. 

In each legal team, you will also be assigned a buddy. Your buddy will teach you how to undertake various tasks and check your work before it is returned.

You will be provided with in-depth training on all of our technology and software, and be involved in organising events, liaising with clients and third parties, managing expenses and billing, creating correspondence and documents and providing other ad hoc administrative support to the legal team.
