Job Details

My client is a top ranked Legal 500 firm. Many of the firm's Partners and Associates are ex-City practitioners, and they attract a high quality of work across all their practice areas. If you are looking for a move to a firm that offers a work/life balance without a reduction in the quality of work on offer then this could be ideal for you.

We are recruiting for a newly qualified Construction Solicitor to join the busy team. The construction team acts for an interesting mix of large property portfolio-holders, institutional investors, shopping centres and local authorities with substantial pipelines of repeat work.

The team handles construction disputes across insolvency and payment disputes, warranty claims, and disputes under all forms of building contracts. They also work on with large one-off construction projects including new build hotels, leisure centres, office developments and school refurbishment projects. This is a great opportunity to come and join a successful and growing team that is involved in impressive and varied work.

You will be a newly qualified Solicitor with a desire to practice in both contentious and non-contentious construction work. Along with your legal knowledge, you should have excellent client facing skills and the desire to grow your practice through active business development.

The firm offer a competitive salary and benefits package and excellent opportunities for progression. If you would like to apply or find out more information, please contact Tom Cooke at QED Legal or apply below.

QED
An acronym of the latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum which translates as "thus it is demonstrated" or "that which was to be demonstrated". It is most often used as an annotation at the end of a complex mathematical, scientific or philosophical argument to show that the author had proven what he had set out to prove. In recent times it has also been translated as "Quite Easily Done".
