Our clerkships offer a unique chance to experience up to two practice areas in corporate law, and learn from some of Australia’s most talented legal minds. In Sydney, we offer a summer clerkship with two 4-week rotations across two practice areas and the option to apply for the Aurora Internship, a fully funded 5- to 6-week winter internship. Clerkship rotations are available across all our practice areas, as well as our pro bono and innovation teams.

Is a G+T clerkship right for me?

The Sydney program is open to students in their penultimate or final year of study. Our culture is driven by respect and inclusion, entrepreneurism, integrity and active citizenship. Our people are ambitious, creative and entrepreneurial – they bring energy and a can-do mindset and are willing to challenge assumptions. If you have the restless ambition to work at the heart of change, and if you are prepared to take initiative, you’ll feel like you belong here.

What will I experience?

During your clerkship, you’ll be provided with a supervising partner, a mentor and a buddy who will help you develop your day-to-day legal and personal skills. You’ll also grow with the help of structured in-house training, covering drafting and technical skills through to business development and personal branding.

You’ll mainly work within two of our corporate law practice areas, and you’ll also have the chance to work on innovation projects or pro bono matters. This is your opportunity to explore areas you’re interested in, push out of your comfort zone and bring your own ideas and perspective to the team. Plus, you’ll build a valuable network that will support you throughout your career – wherever it takes you next.

Ready to join?

With a challenger mindset, G+T is always pushing the status quo and taking a stand on things that matter. That’s why we constantly seek new ideas, fresh energy and different perspectives from our clerks and graduates. Work at the forefront of significant change in our society and economy, and open the door to experiences that will shape your career – wherever you want it to take you.

We are committed to providing and maintaining a diverse and inclusive environment and a culture where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute.
