Job Details

A rare opportunity has arisen within a West Yorkshire based high profile company who seek a Junior Commercial Lawyer. You will be welcomed within a diverse in-house legal team comprising of 15 who care passionately about the environments and the communities in which they work.

A role within this sector is not only interesting but challenging, therefore, a positive outlook and pragmatic nature are vital qualities. Reporting to the Head of Commercial, you will manage a portfolio of commercial contracts/advice files, some more complex than others, and ensure that colleagues requests for advice are dealt with in a comfortable time frame and precise manner. You will develop into a provider of competent legal advice across commercial and construction contracts, disputes, public procurement law, IT, data protection and competition law, and succeed in this career path within a supportive team environment.

Desirably, we are keen to talk to candidates who have some non-contentious contracts exposure, however lawyers with a commercial mindset and demonstrable desire to work in-house will be warmly considered. The work-life balance for employees at this company is excellent, and their low staff turnover is a testament to their positive progressive culture. Shortlisting will occur w/c 5th August.

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. Our experience means we have expertise on all aspects of legal recruitment. To hear more, please contact Steven Shakespeare or another member of the In-house 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.
