This role offers significant career opportunity to a Pensions Solicitor looking to take on a senior role within the Leeds office of an impressive global law firm.

This, together with the volume and quality of work that the undertake makes this an appealing opportunity for those who are perhaps wanting to move from London for lifestyle reasons but are worried about the impact this could have on their work life.
The Role

On top of this you will have the opportunity to branch out into pension litigation if you wish.
The role delivers a diverse work environment and gives you the ability to gain experience in all aspects quickly whether related to the technical aspects of the role or wider commercial aspects.
You will be working as a part of a team that performs highly and is very cohesive.

Whilst this firm deliver great technical training, they also provide fabulous skills-based support.
The Candidate
Let's face it, there aren't many Pensions Solicitors around, this practice is alive to that and happy to be open minded about the level that they recruit at, and structure the role and responsibilities to suit.
You could be a senior lawyer already fully confident with your client, technical and team leadership skills, or someone at the earlier stages of your career but looking to push yourself on and position yourself within a team where there will be a clear route to progression.
To get the right person they will be as flexible as they can be, but you will need a minimum of 3 or 4 years solid practical experience.
In terms of personality, whilst undeniably a technical area of law and they are looking for someone who can demonstrate a real eye for detail, they are also looking for someone who has a team approach, can see things from a commercial perspective and has a hunger to continue their development.
This practice will encourage you to be the best you can possibly be, they provide a fast paced but flexible and supportive environment and are know for their down to earth and friendly approach.
Benefits
The opportunity to work at a leading law firm, with an amazing range of clients and complex work.

Are you a property litigation solicitor looking to handle great quality work?
Are you looking to work within a firm where your progression is on merit, and completely down to you rather than based on structures, numbers and others that may be ‘above' you? Do you want the freedom to express yourself, not to be micromanaged but yet get the support to develop?
If so, read on.
This firm have a strong reputation within the Northern Legal and Business community and are looking for someone to support the partner within their busy property litigation team.
Whilst they need someone with strong technical experience and the ability to take on and run with at least some matters unsupported, they are ideally looking to recruit someone with between 2 and 6 years pqe, or with the equivalent level of experience.
To give you an overview :
The work is for substantial commercial clients, there is a steady flow of quality and varied work which is almost exclusively on commercial matters but isn't just a diet of asset management.
You would get plenty of autonomy, no micromanagement but there is a collegiate approach too.
You will be able to take on responsibility for clients yourself when you are comfortable doing so.
Most of the work is one off pieces of litigation, although the team do undertake 1954 Act work, and there will be some of this, you can be sure that your desk won't be dominated by it.
Clients are diverse, they include both national household brands and more local entrepreneurial clients.
Working with a Property Litigation Partner well-regarded for their work and also as being a very decent person to work with.
Whilst we can never guarantee 9am to 5pm, at this firm it is expected that you'd have a work life balance.
Working alongside a long established and highly regarded commercial property team full of quality individuals.
This role could suit someone :
At a larger firm but now looking to take on more responsibility and operate with more autonomy, or
Someone at a smaller firm, with strong experience but looking for better support and infrastructure and also perhaps a team environment to work within.
If you are interested in finding out more about this newly instructed Property Litigation Solicitor opportunity in Leeds, contact Rachael Mann on 0113 4677111 for a confidential discussion and to find out more about this role.
