The Economy Minister Paul Frew has announced a second Assured Skills Academy in legal services with local company FinTrU.
The Academy will deliver 20 training places to individuals with degrees who wish to retrain in the legal aspect of financial services.
Training will be delivered remotely over a five-week period by Belfast Met, Ulster University and Queen’s University. Participants who complete the Academy will be guaranteed an interview for a position with FinTrU.
Applicants who are selected for FinTrU’s Legal Academy will receive practical training by industry experts and will have the opportunity to develop the core skills needed to take up exciting new graduate roles in FinTrU.
Roli Shaw, General Counsel and Head of FinTrU Legal, said: “We are delighted to launch applications for FinTrU’s second Legal Academy. This is a fantastic opportunity for those who wish to train in the legal aspects of Financial Services, and embark on a career working with some of the largest global investment banks from right here in Northern Ireland – which has obvious appeal to graduates from law and language disciplines.
“We have continued to successfully recruit multiple virtual Academies over the past year and are excited to offer further opportunities to the local talent through our Legal Academy. FinTrU was named by the Financial Times as one of Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies this year and we are keen for ambitious individuals, who are keen to showcase their talents on the global stage in an exciting industry, to join our journey.”
Applications for the FinTrU Legal Assured Skills Academy are open until July 23. No experience is required but applicants must hold a 2:2 degree or better in any discipline.
