Senior Commercial Litigation Solicitor
A highly renowned, award winning firm in Leeds City Centre is looking to recruit a Senior Commercial Litigation Solicitor to join their team. The firm offers a full range of legal services to clients across the private and public sectors as well as bespoke advice to individuals. They pride themselves on client satisfaction and they aim to consistently provide a level of service that will exceed their clients' expectations. Our client’s commercial litigation team is flying. They have established a fantastic position within the Yorkshire and wider market and the growth in their instructions shows no sign of slowing down at all. They are looking for someone who has high calibre litigation experience and who is able to pick up and run with complex and interesting work but who also has the desire to progress and make a mark themselves. The continual success of the team has been driven by them recruiting lawyers who like not only practicing the law but also getting involved in Business Development. If you are someone who wants to join a respected and energetic team, where you will be both encouraged and supported to run with your own ideas, with a strong brand behind you then this would be an excellent opportunity to explore. The work that they handle now includes anything from contractual and IT disputes through to fraud, negligence and partnership and boardroom disputes. Across the business they operate within a number of niche sectors and if you have a sectoral approach, they are likely to have others across the business who can help in the evolution of this. Whilst they are happy to look at people from all backgrounds there is a particular opportunity for people who have an interview in, ideally as well as experience in, IT and technology disputes. The quality of the work is high, and it is often fast paced too so they need someone who has an energy for commercial litigation. If you are at one of the more established National / International firms it may be that you feel that you have hit a glass ceiling or are just not able to progress as quickly as you’d like. Alternatively, you may be within a smaller firm where there is a lack of support from both other professionals and the back-office offering. This firm loves personalities and support individuals fully in their development. It’s a great opportunity and whilst not one of the big 6 in Leeds they have a great platform and scope to move forward at pace, for you, for the team and for the firm. The successful candidate will probably have at least 5 years PQE within commercial litigation and an entrepreneurial approach, however they are happy to be flexible with experience and consider those who fall out of this bracket.
