An exciting opportunity has arisen with this well liked leading City practice. As one of the few firms that has really grown through the recession they have a proven track record of high quality work and an A-list client book.
Amongst other areas, they have a highly regarded pensions practice. Made up of 6 fee earners, they are now looking to hire a junior solicitor to help balance the team. The work will be varied and will include advising on scheme documentation, compliance, merger projects, scheme terminations and contentious matters (including matters in the High Court, the Pensions Ombudsman and the Pensions Regulator Determinations Panel). You will also be expected to get involved with transactional matters with the corporate and restructuring teams where necessary.
This is a great opportunity for a junior pensions lawyer. Aside from the technical capability the partners are also looking for a team player and someone who is confident and comfortable with clients.
To apply, you will currently be working in the City undertaking pensions work. You must be UK qualified and be in permanent UK employment. You must have strong academics (minimum 2:1 from a good University and As and Bs at A-Level or equivalent) and have broad pensions exposure. The partners are seeking someone who is both ambitious and capable of engaging in business development activities. It will suit someone who wants high quality work and an environment that encourages growth.
