Role: Financial Litigation and Recoveries Solicitor (2PQE)
Location: Leeds, W Yorkshire
Salary: £25,000 - £30,000 DOE
This well-established Leeds commercial and criminal practice is now looking for a solid litigator with specific experience in financial litigation and recoveries. The primary focus of this role will be on Consumer Credit Act and FCA regulated work.
This is a progressive department and you be will expected to assist the director / senior solicitor with developing good practices for volume-driven litigation and efficient CPR management. You will therefore be a focused and highly organised individual seeking slightly more responsibility in your next role. You will be able to seamlessly take on and progress an existing caseload and assist with the supervisory function of the department.
In terms of expertise and experience, you will possess the following:
- A solid understanding and broad range of contentious litigation with good technical knowledge;
- You will ideally have some Consumer Credit Litigation experience and secured recoveries which involve complex issues, which involve complex issues across the range of mid-high value matters (though this is not an essential requirement);
- Strong interpersonal skills – the confidence and ability to deal with clients and a track record in maintaining and developing client relationships;
- An natural ability to supervise junior members of the team, when required.
The working environment is fast-paced and the long-term vision is that this department will be expanding all aspects of its services with its clients.
