  • Down-to-earth, collaborative and ambitious personality


What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a broad commercial litigation caseload
  • Handling complex disputes for business clients
  • Building relationships with clients, referrers and local contacts
  • Supporting the continued growth of the litigation department
  • Contributing to business development and profile-raising activity
  • Working closely with senior leadership on future growth initiatives


Salary & Benefits

  • Hybrid working
  • Flexible office location across Yorkshire
  • Directorship potential for the right person
  • Genuine route to Shareholder status
  • Strong support staff structure
  • Significant investment in technology and infrastructure
  • Supportive, collaborative leadership team
