A WORLD OF OPPORTUNITIES Who we are Clifford Chance in Brussels brings together the best of two worlds: the collegiality and flexibility of a smaller office and the practice and clients of one of the world’s largest integrated law firms. Our innovative and cutting-edge work across six global practice areas helps our clients meet the many challenges of a rapidly evolving business world. What we are looking for Our success depends on attracting the best people and nurturing their talent. We are looking to recruit talented and articulate graduates (or students) who want to be part of a leading international law firm. What we offer As a junior lawyer, you will work across a range of practice areas as we do not have formal departments.

In addition, our recruits are often surprised by the down-to-earth and open atmosphere, as well as the high level of involvement and responsibility from the outset. Joining us will offer you the opportunity to work alongside lawyers who are leaders in their field.
