Job Details

An outstanding opportunity has arisen for a Family Solicitor to join a leading Leeds based firm. The firm specialises in private family work and boasts a really impressive team of experts.

They are a very friendly and sociable firm and as such have a very low staff turnover with many of their people being with them for over 10 years. They have a great reputation with the majority of work coming from client recommendations as opposed to advertising. Their work is predominantly Yorkshire based but they also do some national work.

Our client has an opening to work in its divorce and finance team. The focus of work is on relationship breakdown and issues surrounding divorce, co-habitation, civil partnerships, financial remedies and pre and post nuptial agreements.

You will be expected to run your own small case load as well as assisting the partners or other members of the team on more complex files. They have a high net worth client base and the team deal with exceptionally high quality, multi-million pound files including cases with offshore assets, business interests, jewellery and classic car valuations.

This is a great role where you will be given the opportunity to learn and grow with plenty of support from the team, however, you will also have the confidence and ability to work autonomously. The firm are looking for some who is intelligent with strong academics, along with being smart and spirited with a good sense of humour.

You will need to be someone prepared to 'go the extra mile' for their clients in terms of service delivery, and who is genuinely committed to delivering at the highest level as they strive to over deliver on their clients expectations. You will need to be an approachable and friendly individual as well as having sound knowledge of this area of law.

Our client is looking for someone who has between 2-6 years' PQE with the passion to grow and develop in this role, however this is just a guideline and applications from candidates who fall outside this PQE range will be considered.

The stand out trait of this role is the quality of work you will be dealing with as it is truly outstanding, as well as the quality of the people you will get to work with. The firm have created a fantastic environment which is both upbeat and friendly as well as being exceptionally supportive. So why not apply now.

How to Apply:
Having been established for over 20 years, we are experts in legal recruitment. 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 Rachel Birkinshaw 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

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.
