With several years’ PQE, and experience working as a litigator in a local or regional firm, you are comfortable working on complex matters with relative independence but know when to ask for support or assistance from colleagues and partners. You possess a good manner with clients and colleagues alike, being professional, perceptive, and calm under pressure when working to deadlines and prioritising your time. You will be keen to bring your insights and ideas to your new firm and contribute towards the collegiate and collaborative environment this firm proudly offers.

Benefits include:

  • 23 days of annual leave, plus bank holidays
  • Christmas and New Year office closure in addition to annual leave allowance
