A rapidly growing, progressive and forward thinking boutique city law firm are seeking a junior commercial litigation lawyer to join their highly regarded Dispute Resolution team. The team deals with public interest and insolvency matters and Director Disqualifications – acting for both Insolvency and Director Stakeholders.

Applicants should ideally have a background in insolvency and show a desire to take on Director Disqualification work. Full training will be provided, but candidates must have relevant training within adjourning areas. Any exposure focussed on tax disputes (either in private practice or with in-house experience working for HMRC) is particularly desirable as is the ability to assist with marketing and business development.

The successful candidate will likely be familiar with the insolvency service, the treasury solicitor, and/or the providers of legal services to the secretary of state. There is significant scope for successful applicants to contribute to the firm’s publications and for client and business development from an early stage.

On top of training and support, the firm offers a superb benefits structure, whereby a discretionary firm-wide bonus scheme and a fee earner bonus both provide substantial opportunities to boost financial prospects.

If this opportunity is of interest and you possess the relevant skills and expertise, please contact Hafsa Nasir by sending your CV on first instance to hnasir@lawabsolute.com or should you wish to have an initial discussion beforehand, please call 0207 092 8066 and quote the job reference.
