Our highly regarded pensions practice is growing our Manchester based team. We would love to hear from experienced lawyers looking for a pensions role in a growing team. We provide great opportunities for development and exposure to high quality client work with a wide range of clients and training opportunities.
About The Role
We have one of the largest and most highly regarded specialist pensions teams in the UK, with top tier rankings in both Chambers and the Legal 500. Our team currently comprises 18 partners and around 50 other pension specialists. Our award-winning pensions team is experienced in advising trustees and employers on all aspects of defined benefit and defined contribution pension schemes. We also have considerable experience advising on group pensions, master trusts, insurance products (including buy‑in and buy‑out arrangements), longevity products and other structures. Unlike many other pensions practices, we also work on litigation within the team, as this enables us to brief clients in full on any potentially contentious issues and provides a balanced approach to our advice.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced pensions associate to join our market‑leading pensions team. You’ll be involved in a wide range of high‑quality advisory work and you’ll receive exceptional training in a supportive and collaborative team.
