Commercial Litigation Solicitor | NQ–2 PQE
Location: Hampshire
Salary: £50,000–£60,000
Working Model: Hybrid working
About the Role
A good junior litigation role should give you the chance to get involved: to understand your clients, contribute to strategy and take increasing ownership of your work. We are exclusively instructed by an established Hampshire law firm looking to appoint a solicitor into its growing disputes practice. This is an opportunity to join a busy team where there is both work to get your teeth into and room to develop.
The practice handles a varied mix of commercial disputes, including contractual claims, shareholder and partnership disagreements, and professional negligence matters. You will work alongside experienced litigators, supporting more complex cases while building responsibility for matters appropriate to your experience.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Ideal Candidate
The partners are looking for someone who enjoys client contact, takes pride in their work and wants to progress. Commercial litigation experience is preferred, although candidates with a broader litigation background and a clear interest in commercial disputes will also be considered. The role would particularly suit:
- An NQ solicitor with a strong litigation seat, or a qualified solicitor with up to around two years’ PQE.
- Someone confident communicating with clients and comfortable managing competing priorities.
- A lawyer looking to build a longer-term career with a regional firm.
