Family Associate

We are now recruiting with a top regional law firm with its headquarters in central Manchester. They are looking to recruit a family lawyer to come in at associate level to deal almost exclusively with divorce related work for its high net worth client base.

Their mid-sized award-winning family team is extremely well regarded in the North West and supplements the firm's strong general commercial presence.

Family solicitors with a strong background in family work between 3 - 7 years PQE would be ideal for the role but strong applicants falling outside of this bracket will be considered. It is envisaged that the successful person will become a number two in the department, assisting the Partner with the supervision and management of the other more junior lawyers.

This kind of opportunity doesn't come up very often in Manchester and attracts a healthy salary on top of an attractive benefits package but more importantly a platform to do interesting and profitable private family law work.

Applicants with Family Panel Membership or Resolution Accreditation are welcomed.

Please click 'apply'. Don't worry if you don't have an up to date cv, call or text Joe Rees directly to get the ball rolling.

References to PQE and salary are for guidance only.

Recent testimonial:
Joe recently approached me on Linkedin about a private client solicitor position he was instructed on. The client he was working with uses Thornton Legal exclusively and it was obvious Joe had an excellent relationship with them. He provided me with an excellent and personable service, taking the time to come and meet with me pre-interview and spending time preparing me for interview including the personalities of the hiring managers which was helpful. I'm delighted to say that I've accepted the position and I'm looking forward to getting on board in the New Year.
