With Britain gearing up for a wave of infrastructure investment under Theresa May, Legal Cheek Careers is teaming up with Burges Salmon to hold an event for students interested in pursuing a career in this area.

Members of the independent law firm’s award-winning projects team will chart their career journeys, share their views on the future and offer students advice on following in their footsteps.

Attendees will be able to ask the panel any questions they like in the Question Time-style discussion. Afterwards there will be drinks and an opportunity to network with the firm’s lawyers and graduate recruitment team in Burges Salmon’s stunning Bristol office.

The event takes place on Wednesday 12 October, with the discussion running from 6-7pm, and the drinks and networking between 7-8:30pm. Sixty free places are up for grabs.

Apply to attend here. You’ll be asked to submit a CV and two questions for the panel. The CVs of those offered places will be passed on to Burges Salmon’s graduate recruitment team.

Students of all levels are welcome, but places are limited.
