Our Ireland Legal Analyst programme attracts graduates and postgraduates who are completing their FE1s and want real experience in financial services law.

To give prospective applicants a genuine insight into the programme, we spoke with two of our current Legal Analysts, Jacob Commins and Alana Lacey, about their experience.

Here they share answers to the questions they were most curious about before joining the programme, along with what they have learned so far in their roles. 

What made you apply for the Legal Analyst Programme? 

Alana: After finishing college, I wanted to gain practical legal experience while also beginning my FE1s. The Legal Analyst Programme stood out because it combines exposure to high quality legal work with dedicated support for the FE1 exams. The opportunity to work on complex, high profile matters at an international firm, while being supported throughout my exam journey, made it an ideal starting point for my legal career.
