Are you a law student nearing graduation and eager to gain hands-on experience at an international law firm? We are looking for an enthusiastic and curious Student Worker to join our Regulatory, Compliance & Investigations (RCI) practice in Amsterdam. This is the perfect opportunity to explore whether this practice area is the right fit for you to kick-start your legal career!

About the RCI practice
Our RCI team in Amsterdam is part of our global practice that supports clients in navigating complex regulatory challenges. We advise on national and international matters involving anti-bribery and corruption, antitrust, sanctions, white-collar crime, human rights compliance, investigations, and enforcement. The work often involves highly sensitive matters for multinational corporations and financial institutions.

The team's work basically spans three key areas:

• Compliance prevention - including the development of policies, training programs, and internal controls/audits
• Internal investigations - often triggered by audits or whistleblower reports
• Crisis management - such as dawn raids or product recalls (less frequent, but high-impact)

What will you be doing?

You will:

• Work closely supporting the Associates and Partner of the team
• Learn how to address legal questions from a practical perspective
• Support corporate internal investigations, including document review and analysis
• Draft opinions, legal memos, client alerts, and client-facing presentations and pitches
• Attend interviews with investigations subjects, conducting risk assessments and legal surveys

Who are we looking for?

You are:

• A third-year Bachelor or Master student in law with strong academic performance
• Interested in (financial) criminal law and regulatory matters
• Fluent in Dutch and English, both written and spoken
• Enthusiastic, pro-active, and eager to learn
• Skilled in legal research and analysis
• A team player who takes initiative and works independently

How can you apply?

Are you ready to be part of this dynamic and exciting team, learning how your knowledge and interest in this field is being translated into reality in actual cases? You can apply directly through our careers portal by uploading your cv and supporting documents (such as transcripts, references, and a motivational letter).
