The Firm
Despite now exceeding 150 members of staff, this firm has a real close-knit community feel throughout all departments, where things like flexible working and work from home are commonplace. The firm promotes a health work-life balance, this is well demonstrated by the number of working parents.
The firm houses a vibrant partnership with strong leadership and well-thought-out plans for the future. Everyone has a voice in the firm, it is this approach that has given them an excellent staff retention rate, it is common to find many staff members with over 10 years of service.
Partners are more accessible than in other similar-sized firms, even down to the open-plan seating. This way of working has helped more junior Solicitors to obtain a level of PQE ahead of their years.

- You will deal with a broad range of work, including; Sales and purchases, commercial leases, landlord and tenant, development, and investment work
- This role would be an excellent opportunity for someone that may have hit a glass ceiling in their current role
- You will have an opportunity for full equity partnership in the firm
Requirements & Benefits
