Charities Solicitor 1 PQE+ (retrain)
Newcastle upon Tyne
£40,000+
  
Unique opportunity for a Charities Solicitor to join a nationally regarding department at an exciting time in its ongoing expansion, particularly within the Newcastle legal market.

This market leading Charities and Education group advises an impressive, diverse client base acting for housing associations, further education organisations, mental health organisations and social enterprises, to name but a few.

Equally, the work across the Charities team spans a broad remit of work encompassing governance and constitutional matters, mergers and acquisitions, strategic partnerships, regulatory, fundraising and charitable trust responsibilities.

Whilst my client's preference would be to hire a Solicitor with previous charities experience, this Top 30 national law firm is open to applications from Solicitors at 1 PQE+ with transferable experience in corporate, corporate governance law or commercial contracts looking to move into charities law, provided you are able to demonstrate a clear commitment and passion to this.  

This truly is an exceptional opportunity for an ambitious driven Solicitor work alongside leading names within charities law  where you can either continue to specialise in charities law or retrain utilising your previous corporate/commercial experience.

In return, you will benefit from work of the highest calibre and you will receive full support and training within a truly collegiate environment.  There is also a highly competitive salary and benefits package, impressive bonus scheme and opportunity for career progression.

Please apply now for an immediate response.
