Job Details

Are you a Court of Protection Solicitor looking to work in a firm recognised as a specialist in this area? Do you want to make that next, defining step in your career? If so, this role at a Legal-500 firm in Durham could be the one for you!

With a superb reputation, this is a fantastic opportunity not only to join a friendly, modern and award-winning firm, but also to work within a nationally recognised specialist practice and learn from a team of dedicated and driven individuals.

The firm is expanding and as a result the team is very busy, meaning you can hit the ground running with a caseload of complex matters from a national client base. These matters could include brain and birth injury, deprivation of liberty, deputy-ship applications and more.

Due to the nature of the role, there will be plenty of client contact, meaning the opportunity would suit someone who is committed to client care and has both excellent interpersonal skills and the emotional intelligence and empathy necessary for such a role.

It is anticipated that the successful applicant will be minimum 3 years' PQE within COP or community care, however this is given purely as a guideline, and candidates with less experience are also encouraged to apply so long as they can confidently handle a caseload under minimal supervision.

So if you are looking to take that next step and handle some complex, high-value work within a Legal 500 firm, why not apply?

If you would like to hear more, please contact Holly Dymoke-Marr or another member of the Private Practice team. Alternatively, if you know of anyone who would be suitable for this role then please let them or us know as we offer a reward for successful referrals. For full terms please see our website.

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

Why use Sacco Mann?

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. We don't shuffle paper because we know our marketplace and are therefore in a position to give reliable, knowledgeable and practical advice.

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.
