Linklaters graduate roles: what they involve

The open graduate role is a Vendor Governance & Service Performance Analyst position in Greater London. It involves coordinating governance meetings, reviewing supplier performance, helping with contract management and financial controls, and supporting the Technology Vendor Manager with service levels, KPIs and governance routines.

The description asks for three to six years of experience in vendor management or PMO, ideally in distributed professional services environments.

How to apply to Linklaters' graduate scheme

The description for the analyst role says to review the full job details before applying and apply if your experience matches the requirements. It also says that applications are reviewed by the team. For the other openings, read each advert carefully to confirm its requirements, location, contract details and application instructions.

Where an advert does not explain the full process, typical UK recruitment stages can include an online application, CV or experience review, an interview and, for some roles, an assessment or further interview.
