ENS is Africa’s largest law firm, with more than 600 practitioners across the continent. We are recognised by top ranking agencies for achieving consistently high standards. We provide legal, tax, forensics and intellectual property advice to local and international corporates.

The greatest benefit to completing your Practical Vocational Training (PVT) at ENS is working on cutting edge, complex legal matters under the tutelage of some of Africa’s leading lawyers. We work on some of the biggest, most innovative and most exciting deals, transactions and matters in Africa.

We are firm believers in the merits of on-the-job training. It’s there, working at the coalface with a skilled and experienced attorney, where you’ll feel the satisfaction that comes from providing an inspired solution for your client. Your theoretical training at university is essential to give you the base of legal knowledge on which to build, but only the practical experience of real problem solving makes an exceptional attorney.

• A comprehensive induction, including technical, social and interpersonal skills
• Employee benefits schemes (including medical aid)
• Continuous development through exposure to high quality matters and group training
