Are you an experienced Commercial Litigation Solicitor looking for a role that offers a genuine pathway towards Legal Director or Partnership?
I’m currently working with a leading national law firm looking to appoint a Commercial Litigation Solicitor at 5+ PQE to join its established Nottingham team.
This is a particularly strong succession-planning opportunity for someone ambitious who wants to build towards a senior leadership position within a highly regarded disputes practice.
There is already a strong and active caseload available, with the successful candidate working as the number two to an award-winning and highly regarded Partner who is known for being supportive, approachable and extremely knowledgeable within the market.
