Our client is one of the top law firms in Leeds and has a national reputation for excellence, and as a result, boasts an impressive client base and an extremely high-quality workload.
The department's expertise spans a broad spectrum of commercial law, including outsourcing; framework and supply arrangements; joint ventures, R&D and collaboration agreements; logistics, warehousing, distribution and supply chain management; IT and technology contracts and information technology advice; agency and distributorship agreements; and franchising.
As a member of this successful team, you will be undertaking work that covers the full range of commercial contracting, from a variety of clients including both blue chip companies and household names.
Furthermore, the team hardworking and ambitious, and has a working environment designed to allow people to flourish.
An individual with a desire to further their own skills, as well as the enthusiasm to help the more junior lawyers develop theirs, would be a good match for this role.
The firm has been expanding recently, and as a result, business development will also be a large part of the role.
