Job Details

International Legal 500 firm is looking for an associate to join it's thriving team.

Joining the highly regarded Health, Safety and Environmental team, you will support the partners in handling a range of high profile, often complex work. You will be working with leading partners highly regarded in the legal directories.

The work is varied and ranges from disputes to transactional and advisory work. You can be assured that you will be working for blue chip clients. You will have the opportunity to work as part of a team advising on the environmental and safety aspect of real estate and corporate transactions. When doing contentious work you can match your skills opposite regulatory bodies such as the Health and Safety Executive, Environment Agency and Local Authorities.

This firm is known for its particularly supportive and collaborative team approach with ambitious plans for growth, training and opportunities for development as well as having excellent long-term career prospects.

Given the type of work you will undertake we anticipate that you will need to have between 0-5PQE to meet the demands of the role. You may be moving from a similar role, or you may be a newly qualified solicitor looking for a career in this practice area. Advocacy experience is an advantage, but not essential. You will also have an excellent academic record.

You will have a keen eye for detail and able to build relationships both internally and externally.

You will be well rewarded with competitive salary and a full range of benefits.
