We are looking for qualified solicitors with a minimum of 2 years' PQE in commercial or in-house settings. Ideally, candidates will have 2-6+ years' PQE. While PQE levels are used as a guide, we also encourage applications from individuals who can showcase the necessary skills for the role, regardless of experience level. Successful candidates will possess commercial acumen, a desire to learn, proficiency in contract drafting and negotiation, and strong communication skills. Experience in areas like data protection, litigation, consumer law, and corporate law is beneficial but not mandatory.
