Our Property Litigation team is keen to hear from solicitors with a minimum of 5 years' PQE experience, looking to further develop their careers in a supportive and progressive environment where they can help to supervise and mentor our talented Associates. Our Business Restructuring & Insolvency (BRI) department is looking to add to its team and we are looking for a Contentious Insolvency Lawyer to help us further grow our practice and specialism in this area.This is a role for a litigator who genuinely wants to build (and maintain) a primarily contentious practice. The work will largely be contentious but with scope to do some non-contentious insolvency work and will suit someone who is energised by complex disputes, high-value litigation and the challenge of taking on well-resourced opponents. Our Risk and Regulatory team are looking for a Regulatory Lead to join their team. You will have a key role in ensuring we meet all our regulatory requirements, whilst supporting the Head of Risk in imparting your knowledge to the wider team and business.
