Job description

Commercial Litigation Associate | Top 200 Firm | Manchester

If you are an ambitious litigation Solicitor who is looking for exposure to the highest quality commercial work at a highly-ranked firm, read on because this opportunity is for you.

The Firm

This Top 200 firm leads the way when it comes to the health and social care, life sciences, charity and social enterprise sectors. The expertise of the lawyers in their various teams has earned them a solid reputation and a loyal client base in a wide range of practice areas.

With multiple high rankings in the Legal 500, the firm is celebrated for its collaborative culture, and thoughtful approach to development and career progression.

The Role

The firm is now seeking a Commercial Litigation Associate to join their Manchester office.

• Team: A regional team of 10 who take on a mixture of high value commercial litigation and complex property litigation work
• Reason for hire: Expansion, as there is a lot of high-quality work coming into the team
• Culture: Collaborative and focused on support for ongoing career development
• The Work: You will work on a diverse caseload including the highest calibre commercial litigation work, and complex property litigation work. Your client base will include a wide range of companies within the health, social care, charity and social enterprise sectors

Why This Role Stands Out

• Quality of work: This national firm is well-known and highly-ranked in the market, meaning that their client base and resulting work is of the highest calibre
• Career progression: This role is ideal for a solicitor seeking a route to Senior Associateship and beyond, due to the quality of work you will be exposed to, and the support for development on offer
• Flexibility: This is a rare opportunity to have great flexibility with hybrid working and flexible hours, whilst not losing out on work quality and career progression
• Work/Life Balance: You will have access to great quality work without the corporate targets to go with it, meaning that you will have a better work/life balance

What The Team Is Looking For

• A litigation solicitor between 1-5 PQE
• Experience in a range of commercial litigation or complex property litigation matters

What's On Offer?

• Salary up to £65,000
• Exposure to high quality work and support for ongoing career progression
• Genuine flexibility and work/life balance

This is a rare opportunity to join a highly-ranked national firm and contribute long-term to their ongoing success.
