Waste Management-Jobs in Großbritannien

Job Description

Sacco Mann is proud to be working with a major, top tier international law firm looking to bolster its Environmental practice, with the addition of an experienced Environmental Solicitor. The role will ideally be based in either Leeds or Manchester but other offices outside of London can be considered and we'd love to hear from lawyers working in this space, wherever you may be based in the UK.

The Role

As an Environmental Solicitor at the firm, you will work as part of the wider Environment, Health and Safety team, which is a market leading practice group and recognised as top tier by the various legal guides.

The team advises clients across the full remit of Environmental legal issues - you will have access to a truly diverse and challenging caseload, acting on behalf of major organisations across a wide range of sectors. You will collaborate closely with colleagues, both internationally across the Environmental team, as well as supporting colleagues in Corporate, Planning, Real Estate etc. on Environmental matters that crop up on transactions - delivering a fully integrated service to clients. Some of the key areas you can expect to be involved in include advising clients on the full remit of Environmental legislation, chemical compliance, all different kinds of permitting both domestically and across the EU, waste (management, classification etc.) and circular economy.

Whilst most of the work you'll be involved in is non-contentious, there will be ample opportunity to get do contentious work.

What's in it for You?

• 
  Competitive Package: A top of the market salary and benefits package, appropriate to your experience.




• 
  Career Development: Access to professional development opportunities and clear progression pathways.




• 
  Autonomy & Support: Take charge of your own caseload while enjoying the backing of a collaborative and knowledgeable team, as part of a major international law firm with extremely sophisticated tech systems and capabilities.




• 
  Impact: Join a firm with a strong reputation and build meaningful client relationships with an incredibly impressive client roster.




• 
  Collaboration: Working with fantastic market leading teams across the UK and internationally.




• 
  Flexibility: Hybrid working policy enabling you to split your working time between home and the office. Part time and alternative working patterns will be considered.

About You

The ideal candidate will already have solid experience in Environmental Law - ideally a minimum of c. 5 years.

• The role could suit an experienced Associate on the cusp of Senior Associate promotion or someone more progressed who is perhaps an established Senior Associate or looking for a Legal Director appointment - the size and structure of the team allow for flexibility with this.




• Strong technical knowledge of Environmental law is key although the firm doesn't necessarily expect you to have expertise in all of the areas you'll be exposed to - there is plenty of room for further learning and development.




• Given the seniority of the role, you will be involved in the supervision and mentoring of juniors, as well as marketing and BD efforts with clients.
