What we’re looking for

We are keen to hear from qualified solicitors with property litigation experience who are looking to develop or further specialise in advising charity and not-for-profit clients. You will bring:

• Qualified lawyer with experience handling a broad range of property litigation matters.
• Experience advising charities and not-for-profit organisations would be highly advantageous, but is not essential. We welcome applications from candidates with a genuine interest in the sector and an enthusiasm for developing specialist expertise in charity-related property disputes.
• Exposure to contentious probate, trust disputes, or disputes involving charitable estates and legacies would be beneficial, though not a prerequisite.
• Strong technical and analytical skills, combined with the ability to provide clear, practical advice tailored to clients' objectives.
• A proactive and collaborative approach, with a willingness to share knowledge, mentor others, and contribute to the continued growth of the team.
• Excellent relationship-building skills and the ability to develop and maintain trusted client and professional networks.
• A genuine commitment to collaboration, innovation, and delivering outstanding outcomes for clients.

What if I don’t tick every box?

We’re not box tickers. We appreciate the need for everyone to find a role that challenges them and gives them room for growth.

If you bring transferable skills and a fresh perspective, we’d love to hear from you. If this role excites you and you have the skills to succeed, we encourage you to apply.
