Our Student Training & Development Committee has established various opportunities for students in Ocorian's Cayman Islands office.

Applications are invited from students in a year 12 (or equivalent) programme, such as A Levels or Dual Enrolment, with a keen interest in financial and legal services.

Through our unpaid internship and work experience programmes, we offer students the opportunity to experience the day-to-day operations of a business in the fast-paced financial and legal services industry. Placements are available in the below areas.
