Job description

This multi award-winning, independent law firm is looking to recruit to further bolster their Insolvency team across the North and drive the growth from their Leeds office.

They are looking for someone who is embedded within the market and is keen to make their mark by launching the team of this Top 100 legal Practice Leeds presence. This genuinely is a career-making opportunity, with the backup and support of an acclaimed team operating in the North; you would be tasked with building a team in Leeds.

This role would suit someone either at Partner level and looking to grow a team, or take one with them, or someone aspiring to partnership but feeling as if they perhaps don't have the clarity of it, or possibly the opportunity where they are at the moment.

Ideally, you will already be operating within the Yorkshire market and have contacts upon which you can build. The practice has a strong presence here and can certainly help in the growth of the work, but would really need to be led by you. They have a fabulous brand and are going through a period of growth; this will be one of the final pieces in the jigsaw in terms of them delivering on a full service basis.

They are client-focused but know that it's the staff that really make a business, which is why they offer a competitive salary and package, an excellent office culture, and flexible working options to ensure a stable work/life balance. As a complete meritocracy, with fabulous diversity and almost an equal number of male and female partners, there is a clear run to Equity Partnership and the bar is definitely achievable for talented lawyers.

They are a genuinely supportive firm, and everyone will not only be willing you on but actively supporting you on the journey to establish the Insolvency Team in Leeds.

This is a special opportunity, and we'd love to be able to discuss it further if you are an Insolvency Solicitor considering a move. Any discussions are completely confidential, so even if you are undecided about moving, we are happy to share more information to enable you to make a more informed decision. Many of the senior lawyers that have joined them were not looking to make a move but have simply been tempted by the nature of this firm and the opportunities that it presents.

If you are interested in this Leeds-based Insolvency Solicitor / Partner position, please contact Rachael Mann at Sacco Mann on 0113 467 7111.
