A regional leading law firm is recruiting for a Litigation Solicitor with two to three years PQE to join its dispute resolution team in Manchester.

You will join a small but growing team of three, and work closely alongside a highly experienced litigator, helping you to progress your skills, experience and career prospects quickly.

In the role, you will advise on a variety of litigation matters, including residential property disputes, landlord & tenant, professional negligence, debt recovery, contractual disputes and business disputes.

Realm has been the recruitment partner for this regional firm for several years and – hand on heart – they are an absolute dream to work with. They are extremely proactive in remaining competitive with compensation, bonus schemes and benefits. As a result, this firm has a very happy team and an incredibly high employee retention rate.

The many lawyers we have placed here enjoy their work, benefitting from a genuinely lovely team, fantastic benefits package and manageable caseload, leaving plenty of room for an excellent work/life balance. The team even benefits from all-expenses-paid weekends away – which should demonstrate the intense focus this firm puts on engagement and job satisfaction. The professionals we place here always comment on how comfortable and welcome they feel from day one.

Their offices are also easily commutable from all areas of Greater Manchester with easy transport links, including quick access to the M60.

They are the go-to firm for the regional business and private client community and generate most of their work via word-of-mouth referrals, so lawyers here enjoy a sustainable and varied stream of cases to get their teeth into, enabling them to broaden their experience and commercial skills.

The firm has a clear progression framework and regularly review team salaries and promotability. Plus, it is on an impressive growth track and has added to each of its teams in the past 12 months, so team members feel positive and part of something successful.

If you currently work for a smaller high street or regional firm and want to be part of something bigger, with more opportunities for progression – or perhaps even just want a better quality of life working as a valued member of a lovely team – we highly recommend you get in touch with us.
