Job Details

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Litigator to join a national, award winning law firm that is based in Leeds. The firm is very sector specific and is rated by The Legal 500 and Chambers Directory as the leading provider of legal services to the health sector. This is an excellent opportunity to take on a new challenge and get involved with top quality work within an incredibly supportive and friendly working environment. The firm is renowned not only for the work they do, but also for the work/life balance offered to their employees, coupled with a very competitive salary.

The role
In this particular role you will deal with a combination of property and commercial litigation cases, including general contractual disputes.
You will also get exposure to regulatory work including acting on behalf of statutory regulators in investigations, prosecutions and litigation and public law challenges around their public protection roles.

The candidate

Our client is ideally looking for someone who has between 1- 4 years pqe however this level of experience has been given as an approximate guide for applicants and our client is happy to consider the applications of candidates who fall outside of this level but who have the relevant knowledge/experience, together with the enthusiasm for this particular role.
The firm is particularly interested in hearing from candidates who have previous experience of public sector/public and regulatory law but this isn't essential for the role.
They will also consider a general commercial litigator so property litigation experience isn't necessary for the role.
They are looking for someone who is proactive with the ability to develop client relationships and really drive forward the development of the team.

Benefits

Exposure to quality work
Excellent career prospects and a healthy work life balance

Company

Sacco Mann are specialist Legal Recruiters recognised as regional experts with a genuine interest in, as well as knowledge of, their marketplace. We are renowned for giving clear and straightforward career advice and true quality of service.

We have thirteen experienced consultants focussing on legal recruitment, encompassing the Commercial, General Practice, Public Sector and In House positions, both permanent and locum. In addition two consultants specialise within the Patents and Trademarks sector.

We feel that much of our success has been due to the fact that we:

- try to accurately guage and understand what both candidates and clients require and indeed that which they are able to offer and then bring the two together
- have a demonstrable knowledge of the marketplace. Fundamentally what you need is not merely someone who can post your CV to a practice, but someone whose strength of contacts within the firms can add value, ensuring that you are given proper consideration
- discuss each role with you thoroughly and get prior clearance before a CV is submitted. This is an extremely important for protecting confidentiality and avoiding duplication
- brief you fully prior to any interviews, ensuring that you know what the role entails and how the interview will be run. We also give you honest interview feedback - if you don't do very well in an interview you can always learn from the experience
- are accessible and return your calls

Principally because we believe that the points outlined above are fundamental. We enjoy recruitment, and we are good at it, because we genuinely enjoy assisting people make positive career moves.

The vast majority of our applicants and clients are at pains to thank us for the advice and service that we provide and we believe the high level of referral business is a direct result of the fact that lawyers value our input.
