**Why is this role important and how does it fit into the team, department & wider firm?**

Browne Jacobson’s construction team has grown significantly over the course of the past seven years and it is now looking to recruit a solicitor with excellent contentious and non-contentious experience to service current work flows and help grow this side of the business. This is an exciting role which will include servicing current work flows and helping grow this flow of work. The role is based in Nottingham, but will involve working with members of the team in other offices. The role will be varied and involve construction and engineering disputes of differing sizes and complexity, as well as project advisory work for a range of clients across a variety of sectors. The team works on both national and international projects. This role offers excellent opportunities in terms of levels of responsibility, high calibre work and a supportive environment in which to grow your career and develop your construction practice.

**What does the role actually involve?**
- Specialist advice in all aspects of contentious building, construction and engineering work
- The resolution of problems in construction law and the promotion of initiatives to this end
- The ability to master complex regulations and procedures with careful attention to detail and to explain and provide advice to clients
- The ability and willingness to support other areas of the practice where relevant e.g. providing technical support to our professional indemnity team
- The ability to think laterally in order to consolidate and support a variety of disciplines
- Enthusiasm for the provision of marketing support, e.g. providing seminars and / or lectures and / or workshops and writing bulletins / articles / blogs, updating literature etc.
- Meeting financial goals with a good track record in achieving both targets. You are expected to achieve at least 6.5 hours chargeable time each day
- Individual responsibilities would be designed in conjunction with your personal development plan

**What is the working practice for this role?**

The firm operates a set of core principles that guides our working practice. It’s called ‘One Firm, Wherever You Are’.

You might have enjoyed working from home and would like to split your time between there and the office/ other work locations. Others may be eager to return to the office on a more regular basis. We believe that a regular level of in-person contact is an important way to build connections with your colleagues, enhancing knowledge and idea sharing and enabling all of us to benefit from the vibrant office culture Browne Jacobson has to offer.

Our expectation is that, **on average**, you’ll work from home for no more than three days per week, with the remainder of your time either spent with your colleagues in the office or working from other locations as work demands dictate, e.g. courts, client offices, conferences etc. This is an average expectation over time and we know that there will be variations from week to week. Equally, there will be individual circumstances in which a different pattern of work is needed, for example as an agreed reasonable adjustment for colleagues with a disability or long term medical condition.

We believe this approach:

- fits with our values and personality;
- will enhance our performance through greater flexibility;
- advances our ambitions as an inclusive employer - helping you better balance work and family/life commitments;
- offers opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint (travel, office services etc.), a key ambition underpinning our corporate sustainability plan.

**Person specification**

**Who would be a good fit for this role?**

As part of the construction team, you would be expected to have the following skills and experience:

- A strong academic background with experience in contentious and contentious work areas
- Commercial awareness with a common sense approach to problem solving and the ability to follow through on ideas for improving service to clients
- The ability to provide and communicate practical, commercial advice in a straightforward manner, assimilating facts quickly and working towards tight timescales
- An enquiring mind, attentive to detail with a willingness to accept new challenges and able to manage own time effectively
- A willingness to attend marketing and social events organised by the firm or its clients or professional organisations, maintaining professional relationships with clients and colleagues
