- Be taken through an intensive induction/ onboarding period consisting of:
- An introduction to Thomson Reuters Legal
- Sales cycle and ‘consultative selling’ training

- Shadowing team members
- You will then be assigned rotations or projects so you get to experience various roles and be part of different teams
- High performers may be eligible to apply for permanent positions after the onboarding period
- Along the way you will have the dedicated support of a buddy and will be able to make valuable connections across our sales team and beyond
- We expect that high performing Sales Trainees will move into permanent roles within our sales team by the time they graduate from the Sales Academy Scheme (this is subject to availability and performance)
