Ashton | Full Time / Part Time Considered
Salary up to £65,000+ DOE
I am working with a well-established regional law firm looking to appoint an Associate / Senior Associate to join its Dispute Resolution team.
The team acts for a strong and loyal client base, including both corporate and individual clients, and is recognised for delivering practical, commercially focused advice across a broad range of contentious matters. You will be joining a collaborative and supportive team with a solid reputation in the local market.
The Opportunity
This is a varied and engaging Dispute Resolution role, offering exposure to a broad range of high-quality work, including:
- Professional negligence matters
- Neighbour and boundary disputes
- Debt recovery and insolvency matters
- Challenges to the validity of a Will
- Claims under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975
Property litigation, including possession and dilapidation claims (residential and commercial).
Employment matters, including:
- Settlement agreements
- Non-contentious advisory work
- Employer’s Liability (EL) and Public Liability (PL) claims
You will manage your own caseload while working closely with colleagues and supporting the wider team on more complex matters. The role offers excellent scope to further develop your technical expertise, client relationships, and long-term career progression.
You will also contribute to the continued growth of the firm’s dispute resolution offering, including supporting colleagues on litigation matters and participating in client-facing advisory sessions.
About You
The firm is ideally seeking a Solicitor with 4–7 years’ PQE in dispute resolution or litigation. Strong candidates with slightly less experience will also be considered.
You will demonstrate:
- Experience handling a broad range of litigation matters
- The ability to manage a varied caseload independently
- Strong client-facing and communication skills
- A proactive and commercially minded approach
- Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
- A collaborative and team-oriented mindset
The Firm
You will be joining a respected and growing regional firm with a strong presence in its local market. The firm offers a supportive and collegiate working environment, with a genuine focus on quality of work, client service, and long-term career development. There are strong prospects for progression for the right candidate.
- Option to purchase additional leave
- Contributory pension scheme
- Discretionary annual bonus
- Health cash plan
If you are a Dispute Resolution Solicitor and this sounds of interest, I'd love to hear from you.
