Plymouth
Our client is an international, well- established law firm with amazing IT infrastructure.
As their business is continuing to grow, their clients are increasingly demanding more for less, that's why they've made a commitment to invest further in the development of the Onshore team. They've a team of highly motivated and high performing paralegals, but to ensure they continue to deliver they'll be putting in place a team of qualified lawyers to provide technical supervision and training to the various paralegal teams. This starts with the Dispute Resolution team.
They are looking for a qualified Litigation Lawyer, ideally 4 years PQE or above. The team of paralegals are working on a variety of matters across the entire Dispute Resolution group so you could have a background within commercial litigation, property disputes, insurance or any number of litigation specialism. Whatever your area of experience, you will be a strong technical lawyer, with previous experience in managing people, ideally paralegals, and a passion for developing talent.
The right candidate is likely to have his own small caseload, it's anticipated that the majority of your time will be spent working with team leaders and other stakeholders within the DR group scoping out projects, agreeing training requirements for the team, establishing service standards and methods of quality control, providing technical supervision and development for the paralegals in your team.
You'll work closely with the Head of Onshore to continue to build a credible and high performing team of paralegals, with the flexibility to respond to the changing needs of their clients, their business and their profession, driving growth in the team and, as a consequence, revenue for the business.
This role will be based in their Plymouth office but given the geographical spread of their business, you'll be expected to spend time in all of their locations, working closely with a variety of stakeholders to promote a continued pipeline of work for the team that ultimately will benefit both their clients and business.
