Responsibilities

Kick-start your legal career in a global investment bank

We’re looking for a curious, motivated Trainee to join our Commercial, Technology & Data Legal team in London.

This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience at Société Générale, working alongside experienced lawyers on a wide range of commercial contracts, technology matters, and data protection work that support a leading global financial institution.

What you’ll be doing

From day one, you’ll be immersed in meaningful work, supporting the team with:

Reviewing and drafting commercial, technology and data-related agreements
Assisting with data protection advice and contract provisions
Conducting legal research and supporting internal governance initiatives
Attending meetings, taking minutes, and engaging with stakeholders
Supporting the preparation of legal updates, guidance notes, and training materials
Helping maintain team trackers, documentation, and templates
Contributing to internal training sessions, particularly around data protection
Supporting wider projects and administrative tasks across the team

You’ll receive structured guidance and support, with the opportunity to progress managing your own matters (with supervision) as your confidence grows.

About the team

You’ll join a collaborative Legal team that supports a broad range of business areas across the bank.

The Commercial, Technology & Data team specialises in:

Commercial contracts
Technology and outsourcing arrangements
Data protection and privacy advisory

You’ll work closely with lawyers and business stakeholders, gaining valuable insight into how legal supports a global financial services organisation.

Profile required

What we’re looking for

We’re keen to hear from candidates who are:

A university graduate (minimum 2:1 or equivalent)
Qualified in, or with strong grounding in, UK law (law degree or conversion course)
Passionate about developing a career in commercial law and data protection
Strong communicators with excellent presentational skills
Detail-oriented, organised, and able to manage multiple tasks
Proactive, with a “can-do” attitude and willingness to learn
Comfortable working both independently and as part of a team

Nice to have (but not essential):

Legal Practice Course (LPC)
Previous experience in a law firm, bank, or internship/vacation scheme
French language skills

What you’ll gain

Hands-on experience in a top-tier in-house legal team
Exposure to high-quality commercial and regulatory work
Insight into the legal function within a global banking group
Development of practical legal and professional skills
Close mentorship from experienced lawyers

Why apply?

If you're looking for a role where you can learn fast, take responsibility, and build a strong legal foundation in a commercial, technology and data-focused environment, we’d love to hear from you.

*This position is a standalone trainee role (not part of a formal graduate programme).
You’ll be aligned to a specific legal team and will gain deep experience in that area, rather than rotating across departments.

Why join us

People join for the impact they can have on us. They stay for the impact we have on them. A flatter structure offers visibility and exposure beyond that of our competitors, so you know our names, and we know yours. It's personable, human, and inspires success through passion. By encouraging open mindedness and a willingness to share ideas, we have adapted to market changes and thrived through innovation. Bringing words like “hard work” and “dedication” together with “community” and “respect” has enabled us to work collaboratively and build our future together. We call this Team Spirit and it's what makes us different. It's what makes you different.
