As a newly qualified to 2-year PQE solicitor, you’ll be supported by a dynamic team including the Head of Employment, two Senior Associates, and a dedicated group of secretaries, administrators, and paralegals.
Your caseload will be varied and stimulating, covering:

  • Contributing to the team’s continued success and reputation for high-quality service

This is a fantastic opportunity to build your career in a firm that truly values its people. You’ll benefit from a genuinely supportive and collaborative working environment with early exposure to client relationships and a wide range of sectors.
