Work experience placements in IP

We believe in investing early. Our work experience programme is designed to give students meaningful exposure to intellectual property - from trade marks and patents to the real-world context in which they operate.

If you're curious, driven, and ready to explore a career where law meets innovation, this is where it starts.

Why Choose Us?

Because we treat early careers seriously. Our intellectual property placements go beyond observation. You'll be trusted with real tasks, included in team discussions, and mentored by IP professionals who’ve walked the path themselves.

Here’s what our students say:

Wynne-Jones IP certainly know how to get young people involved. My daughter did work experience in the summer and was given meaningful projects, attended meetings and was absolutely buzzing about IP, something she had never heard of before. The Academy is a great idea.

– Angela Simkins, Farm491 Centre Director

It was the only firm offering a structured work experience scheme. The best bit of the work experience was speaking to trainees, hearing about their specific pathways from school, through university and eventually to IP. I also liked how well structured the programme was, with a timetable and something to do at every point of the day.

– Jamie Medina, Work Experience

I have gained a great deal of understanding about IP, specifically trade marks and patents, although my commercial awareness surrounding IP has also enhanced. I would absolutely recommend Wynne-Jones IP for works experience, I felt extremely comfortable emailing Jess to organise the work experience and already got the impression from this correspondence that the firm was very friendly.

– Tiegan Bingham-Roberts, Work Experience

I would definitely recommend Wynne-Jones IP for work experience as they provide a lot of information and really make you understand what patent and trade mark attorney’s do. I’ve also learned how I can get started as a trainee patent attorney.

– Fahima Ahmed, Work Experience

The experience has been fantastic! In two years’ time I’ll be back on your doorstep asking for an opportunity to work for you.

– Adil Ahmed, Work Experience

I enjoyed working with the different departments and being given actual work and mentoring, it was unparalleled. It was absolutely wonderful and very enlightening, thank you for the opportunity.
