  • The potential of a future training contract (firm only recruits trainees from its existing team of paralegals)
  • Work directly with partner and build your experience quickly
  • Amazing benefits, inc. free massage, subscriptions to Netflix, Spotify, Amazon Prime and Apple, free gym membership

A multi-service, Legal 500 law firm based in South Manchester is looking for a Litigation Paralegal with at least 12 months’ experience in commercial litigation or property litigation to join their award-winning team.

You’ll avoid a commute into the city centre, as this firm is based in a leafy and pretty suburb of South Manchester.

For legal professionals wishing to build a career in litigation, this firm is a fantastic place to begin a career, as it truly specialises in this field. You’ll work directly alongside a partner, gaining unrivalled training and development and exposure to litigation law.

There is also the potential for a training contract in the future, if you desire, as the firm only recruits trainees from its existing team of paralegals.

Due to its location in a very affluent part of Manchester, you’ll get to cut your teeth on high-value, complex and often high-profile cases. You’ll be supporting senior colleagues on a variety of high value commercial and property disputes for a regional and national client base, including landlord and tenant, possessions and evictions, rent reviews, and boundary disputes.

Offering a credible alternative to city centre law firm culture, its principal-led approach recognises the uniqueness of each and every team member. That’s why, in addition to taking home a great salary, you will be able to take advantage of a free massage every month, subscriptions to Netflix, Spotify, Amazon Prime and Apple, membership to Pure Gym, your birthday off work, a counselling service, free pet insurance, free conveyancing, and a healthcare package which provides 24/7 access to a GP and money towards dental, optical and physio.

Commutable from Manchester, Hale, Altrincham, Wilmslow, Macclesfield, Congleton, Stockport and surrounding areas, speak to us about joining this truly modern firm today.
