The team in the north is renowned in the Legal 500 as a Tier 1 practice, and presents the opportunity to work with a variety of renowned partners on a broad spread of matters across sectors including Retail, Finance, FMCG, Media and Advertising, Manufacturing, and Engineering.

Our Opportunity

This is a very exciting time to join us - you will have the opportunity to collaborate with teams from our extensive international platform, working on exciting cross-jurisdictional matters, as well as giving more locally-based advice. This really is a superb role to build your career by bringing an entrepreneurial energy to work on challenging matters with some of the most highly regarded and forward-thinking lawyers in the country.

This team has seen sustained revenue growth over past years, with increasing significant and complex mandates combined with strong demand from clients in the UK and elsewhere. The practice also continues to innovate as it extends into the tech space. As a result, we recognise the need to invest in talent and are keen to continue to build and grow our Associate team.

From day one, you will advise on a wide range of projects, including drafting global policies and procedures, disciplinary and grievance issues, restructures and redundancies, TUPE and changes to terms and conditions. We recognise the fundamental importance of excellent client service as it is what differentiates us from our competition.

You

You'll be a qualified solicitor under the laws of England and Wales (ideally with between 2 and 5 years' PQE). You will demonstrate a strong interest in employment issues and should have excellent academic credentials.

Solid matter management is a must, as is ambition, self-motivation and both the desire and the ability to deliver high-quality work and act on your own initiative. You will thrive in a collaborative team environment, be intellectually curious and enjoy resolving challenging legal issues. You should expect lots of client contact, and a rewarding and challenging career path - all of which come with a role in this team at Squire Patton Boggs.
