Work on a high-profile corporate acquisition in Gateley’s Corporate and Real Estate departments.

Welcome to the Gateley Introduction to Mergers & Acquisitions Virtual Job Simulation. We are really excited to have you here. Gateley is a legal and professional services group that provides a full range of services to a broad client base. As well as being a leading UK law firm that provides highly commercial legal advice across sectors, it is also regarded as an innovative firm that pioneered the trend for firms to list on the London Stock Exchange and diversify their client offering to core non-legal business services, such as tax, property and consultancy.

During this programme, you will get the opportunity to step into the shoes of a trainee solicitor in Gateley’s Corporate and Real Estate departments, working from their Manchester office on a high-profile corporate acquisition. Throughout the programme, you’ll complete tasks that accurately replicate the work that our trainee solicitors do every day!

You’ll learn key skills in legal drafting, critical thinking, time management and effective organisation. We hope that this programme provides a great resource for you to upskill and strengthen your resume as you explore career options and a potential career at Gateley.

This program is self-paced. It takes approximately 2-3 hours to complete.

Skills Learned:

  • Prepare for completion
    Circulate a completion agenda for review and agreement

    • Document Drafting
    • Attention to Detail
    • Written Communication
  • Property due diligence
    Review title information on the target’s property and advise the client of red flags

    • Problem Identification
    • Critical Thinking
    • Communication
  • Finish Line
