Guildford Surrey, United Kingdom Stevens & Bolton Full time

We are looking for an ambitious and talented commercial litigator to join our busy and growing commercial litigation team. We are based in Guildford, although we currently offer flexible hybrid working with most people choosing to spend on average 2 – 3 days per week in the office.
Although we are advertising this role as a full-time role, we would also consider this as a part-time role.
The Commercial Litigation Team
We are one of the largest contentious law practices in the South East outside London and are rated in the top tiers of Chambers and Legal 500 and as a National Leading Practice in Chambers.
We handle a wide range of contentious work for a variety of clients, from individuals and owner managed businesses to household name PLCs. A large proportion of our work is international in nature, involving close collaboration with law firms in other jurisdictions. As well as handling complex High Court litigation and international arbitration we provide strategic advice on claims avoidance and risk management.
First-class support and learning and development opportunities are provided, and early responsibility is offered. Elizabeth Butler, associate, comments “ I joined S&B in 2020, having trained and qualified at a regional law firm and from the outset I’ve been involved in great quality, interesting work spanning a range of different industries. As a commercial litigation associate at S&B, you’re given plenty of direct client contact and there’s a real emphasis on learning and development and equipping you with the tools you need to thrive. We are looking for someone with drive and enthusiasm for a broad diet of commercial dispute resolution work. Strong experience of commercial contract disputes will be a definite advantage, as will an appetite for business development. Have good academics and high-quality experience – typically with a City or leading national/regional practice;
Be able to work both independently, running appropriate cases with minimum supervision and as part of a large team;
Demonstrate commercial awareness;
Pensions Scheme (5% employer contribution)
Private medical insurance
Permanent health insurance
Life assurance
Receive either the sum of £750 per annum as a travel allowance or reimbursement of carparking expenses via a pay as you go card at a local carpark (likely to be Farnham Road carpark)
Travel – option to apply for an interest free loan for a season ticket or parking permit
Enhanced maternity/paternity pay (after sufficient service)
Cycle to work schemes
Discounted gym memberships and shopping
Profit share and discretionary bonus schemes
We are recognised as a top firm in The Times Best Law Firms 2024 and shortlisted for ESG Initiative of the Year at the upcoming Women, Influence & Power in Law UK 2024 Awards. We were highly commended for both “Regional/Offshore Firm of the Year” – Legal Business Awards 2023 and “Law Firm of the Year” – SLS Legal Awards 2023, commended for “Law Firm of the Year: The Independents” – The Lawyer Awards 2023, and were shortlisted for “UK Law Firm of the Year - Small/Mid Sized Firm” – The British Legal Awards 2023 and “Workplace Fit-out of the Year” – Insider South East Property Awards 2023. Our refurbished office has been awarded a RICS SKA silver certificate and a 2 star Fitwel accreditation.
We seek to recruit people who will help us maintain and build on this, and in return we offer excellent long-term career and development opportunities.
Diversity & Inclusion
We have a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion (D&I). This drives a strategy which focuses on constant promotion of an inclusive culture that encourages everyone to realise their full potential and be themselves at work. Previously we have been shortlisted for “Best D&I Initiative” at The HR Awards and for “Best Talent and Inclusion Initiative” at The Lawyer Awards.
