Are you a Commercial Solicitor looking for something different? This role, which offers the best of both worlds between in house and private practice, is a unique opportunity to join a team which is going from strength to strength.
Top quality work, great clients and cutting edge technology, without the pressures of time recording and client billing targets.
Central Leeds office location with home working.
This role is to work directly for companies, very much as an in-house lawyer, but with the support of an award-winning law firm with all of the back-up, training and support that this offers.
The role is to be based within Leeds City Centre, but you would sometimes find yourself working on site for the companies - truly integrated as a trusted legal advisor.
Our client, which is one of the UK's leading law firms, offers an incredibly friendly working environment accompanied by a world leading reputation, backed up by the countless awards that they have won.
This role offers more flexibility and freedom than a typical commercial role would offer, so if you are looking to get away from traditional time recording, work directly with one or two leading corporates but have the luxury of other lawyers around you, this role can offer that highly unusual blend.
You will be working within the firms' 'in-house' team, this team literally takes over either the entire legal work of specific companies, or specific parts of it, taking on work that was previously handled in-house.
The role is essentially to work as in-house lawyer but on behalf of one or two large clients at any point in time, offering the opportunity to work across sectors but focusing largely on commercial contracts and wider business as usual legal work.
Work will include providing high quality legal advice, mitigating commercial and legal risk and really integrating yourself into the client, their sector and their commercial imperatives.
The firm provides a really innovative solution to some of the UK's highest profile companies, giving you the chance to be at the cutting edge of a genuine alternative to companies looking to outsource their legal services in a different way.
You will have the support of a global firm, really allowing you to drive your career forward at the highest level and surrounded by some of the brightest minds.
There's no time recording, no chargeable targets and the option to get involved in business development but no requirement to do so, it's all about doing a great job for the company and getting to know them well.
You will be fully supported by non-legal specialists across a number of sectors including IT and project management to deliver highly innovative solutions.
The firm is really open minded about the level of PQE that it is looking for.
There are 2 roles and one will suit a Lawyer with c.
1-5 years PQE, with the other pitched at a more experienced level or c.
5 years + PQE.
Ideally you will have solid commercial contracts experience gained either in house or in private practice.
Whilst the lion's share of the work is commercial they are happy to consider recruiting either corporate lawyers or even litigators, although you must have worked in a commercial discipline within litigation.
They have recruited from within these disciplines successfully historically and are happy to do so again.
This practice is fully supporting a blend of home and office working going forward and as a consequence if you live further afield but could consider the commute for a couple of days a week don't discount this opportunity.

We are now looking to recruit a Recruitment Consultant for our Private Practice team in our Leeds office.
Our Private Practice team is a hugely successful and market leading division, with great scope to continue its growth.
We are a close knit, well-bonded team that has a collegiate and collaborative approach, a great reputation across the market and an unparalleled set of connections.
About the Recruitment Consultant Role:
Join a successful (overproducing) team,
There is a ‘warm desk' to pick up, in a market where we are already well established with a large, varied client base of law firms - from major international brand names to boutique commercial outfits and high street practices, which makes this a robust market to operate in.
Will suit a recruiter with experience in either Legal Recruitment or a similar professional sector recruitment.
Focuses on the attraction and placement of legal professionals including Solicitors and Partners in the Private Practice market - working across all areas of legal practice (both commercial and consumer).
This is one of our core teams and a marketplace where we have been highly active for over twenty years.

This makes our job so much more enjoyable, rewarding and successful.
Personal development and career progression is something we focus on, there are no barriers to career progression and progression is entirely based on ability and delivery rather than being time barred or restricted in any way.
We do not have a heavily KPI focused working environment - managers truly understand the market you will be working in and will work closely with you to agree a structure and the best way to approach your desk but ultimately - once up and running - you will have a lot of freedom and autonomy to engage with your clients and candidates in the way that works best for you and your desk.
We have a blended working from home/working from the office environment and have found that this works really well.
Being together as a team sharing information, intelligence, tips, successes and woes is really productive and thoroughly enjoyable, but we also enjoy the ability to work from home and focus on our desks.
We envisage this more flexible way of working to be the future for us, a balance that is effective from both a professional and personal perspective.

To allow you the autonomy to work in a manner that works well for you, as well as, representing the business in an appropriate manner.

Enthusiasm is also a core attribute, its infectious and this team use that as a way of powering on to extra success.
We work in close knit groups, and we genuinely have each other's backs.
This is non-negotiable.

This is key, we have great scope, and we are focused on making sure we take advantage of the opportunities ahead of us and the people who help us do so will be able to achieve their own career ambitions at the same time.
