Job Details

Are you an experienced Family Solicitor looking to take the next step in your career? If so, then this Head of Department role at a friendly and rapidly growing firm in Derbyshire could be for you.

Our client is a quality driven youthful firm who work hard to establish strong long relationships with their clients and this has helped them establish a great reputation in their area. They specialise in providing personal legal services such as Private client and Residential Conveyancing advice but they are now looking to expand into the Family area. This has provided an opportunity for an ambitious Family Solicitor who is looking or a challenge in their career. The role would entail setting up, growing and establishing the department therefore the successful candidate must have the ability to build client relationships, work independently and be highly driven.

The work will be traditional family matters such as divorce, finance, co-habitation and much more with exposure to some HNW cases too. There will be secretarial support available but this is truly an opportunity to challenge yourself and gain some experience of building a team from scratch and there are great career prospects in this role with a clear route to partnership for the right proactive and dedicated individual.

The successful candidate should be at least 5years' 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 bracket.

You would be joining a youthful ambitious firm where you can really grow and develop in your career as a Family Solicitor and look forward to a friendly working environment every day. If this sounds like the opportunity you've been waiting for, then why not apply?

How to Apply:

Our strength derives from the fact that we are well-known, well-respected and have developed long-standing bonds with both our clients and candidates, and have become an authority on all aspects of legal recruitment. To hear more, please contact Andy Purdy or another member of the private practice team at Sacco Mann.

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. 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.
