Commercial Litigation Associate/Solicitor.
 
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Commercial Litigation Solicitor (3+ years' PQE) to join a firm which offers complete transparency for career progression and a genuine focus on personal development.
 
This Top 20 law firm is a truly ambitious and forward-thinking organisation and is looking to strengthen the Newcastle arm of its market-leading Commercial Disputes team.
 
This nationally recognised team prides itself on dealing with complex City calibre work incorporating arbitration, litigation, and mediation, and boasts an enviable national and international client base across a broad range of sectors to include transport, financial services, manufacturing, and engineering to name but a few.
 
My client is open to applications from Commercial Litigation Solicitors from 3 years' PQE with a specific sector specialism i.e. IT, financial services/banking or data protection/FOI. However, applications will also be considered from a solid “all-rounder” who may wish to develop a sector expertise in the future.
 
This is a key strategic hire at either solicitor or associate level and you will undertake a pivotal role within the department.
 
It is essential you will hail from a strong national or regional law firm and will have an excellent academic record, coupled with the ability to be involved with supervision and business development.
 
This is a first class opportunity for an experienced Commercial Litigation Solicitor to join an expanding Top 20 law firm in Newcastle city centre, with an exceptional reputation for its calibre of clients, supportive flexible working environment, and clear routes for career progression.
