Job Details
Our client is looking to appoint an 2-4yrPQE Solicitor who has background in a Top 100 or City firm, to be based in Newcastle where you'll handle top quality contentious matters in commercial disputes, banking and finance litigation. Much of the work is sourced from London, and frequently has an international edge to it, so the quality is high and thus this represents an exciting opportunity to gain this calibre of experience.
This team is highly rated, and offers a rare opportunity for a candidate looking to move out of London, or even for a candidate who in future might fancy transposing their skills into the City market from the North East. Suitable applicants must have a consistently strong academic record (minimum 2:1) and at least 1 year PQE (preferably longer) in quality Commercial Litigation with a rated team.
The firm has a good track record in engaging candidates from big firm backgrounds, and whilst they are not a national firm themselves they will aim to compete financially with the big firms in the North. An intriguing and interesting opportunity for a high quality 2-4yrPQE commercial litigation candidate who wants to be based in Newcastle.
UK qualified Solicitors looking for a fixed term contract may also be considered.
Florit Brooke advertisements use PQE levels purely as a guide to the level of experience required for the role and this does not prohibit applications from candidates who are able to demonstrate the necessary skills and experience. We aim to respond to enquiries as soon as possible but if we have not contacted you within 5 days then unfortunately on this occasion your application has not quite met the requirements of our client closely enough.
