Job Details

A Company/Commercial Solicitor is sought for a distinguished and unique law firm nestled in the picturesque landscapes of Gloucestershire and The Cotswolds.

 

Our client, a highly regarded and flourishing law firm with several offices across the UK, is on the lookout for a seasoned company commercial lawyer to enhance their expanding Commercial team located in Cirencester and Cheltenham. This outstanding firm prioritizes work/life balance, treating its employees like family and ensuring that targets are not the only focus. Remarkably, they have seen just one departure in the last decade, highlighting their exceptional workplace culture—this individual left the legal field entirely, not the firm!

 

The ideal candidate will:

 

• possess at least 3 years of post-qualification experience;

• demonstrate a solid track record in all facets of general company/commercial law, including a foundational understanding of employment law;

• efficiently manage a diverse caseload with minimal oversight;

• collaborate with the existing team to foster and attract new business opportunities;

• provide support to partners and senior lawyers;

• exhibit ambition and a desire to acquire new skills;

• have strong written communication skills and meticulous attention to detail;

• thrive in a friendly work atmosphere;

Compensation will be commensurate with experience, and we offer a competitive benefits package that includes:

  • Complimentary car parking
  • Private health insurance
  • Flexible working arrangements when suitable
  • Generous holiday allowance, including a Christmas shutdown and bank holidays
  • Training and development opportunities within the firm
  • Reimbursement for professional fees
  • Pension and life insurance coverage

 

DON'T LET THIS OPPORTUNITY SLIP AWAY! This is a firm you may not have the chance to revisit.

For more details, please reach out to Principal Consultant Sharzad Michaels at Clifton Legal for a confidential discussion. Ref: SM - 33368

Company

Clifton Legal is the legal division of Clifton Search - a specialist search and selection recruitment firm. We are a niche, boutique firm and focus purely on the legal and corporate governance markets. Our primary focus is on opportunities from newly qualified to General Counsel level.

 

We set up Clifton in 2014 to fulfil what we believed was a gap in the market to provide clients and candidates in our core markets with the knowledge and connections of a specialist and experienced recruitment partner allied to a pro-active and integrated approach. In essence we bring the professionalism and targeted networking approach of a search solution but with a functional rather than sector driven model. We augment this with the personal touch, flexibility and proactive rate of response of a traditional contingent recruitment service.

 

The leadership team has c50 years of recruitment experience and as experienced recruiters with a proven track record, we have a deep knowledge and understanding of our markets, a large network of legal and governance professionals and a genuine passion for delivering a professional, honest and quality service to all stakeholders within the recruitment process.

 

We are rigorous in ensuring that we have a thorough understanding of both candidate and client requirements at the outset to ensure the delivery of a well-matched service and a successful campaign for both parties.

 

Our long-standing client base is comprised of large UK, US and European listed multinationals and corporate businesses and spans a wide range of sectors. We operate out of offices in Bristol and London but recruit right across the UK, Europe and the US.

 

Why work with us?

Unlike most recruitment companies we don’t operate with the typical “sales” driven culture that’s common in our sector. This gives us greater independence and objectivity and allows us to focus purely on your agenda and career aspirations and find the right opportunity for you – even if you are not “actively looking” in the market.

Whether you or keen to secure a new opportunity right now or simply keeping an eye on the market for that perfect opportunity, we commit to offer you:

  • Honest, impartial and specialist market advice/intelligence from recruiters with extensive experience.
  • CV appraisal and preparation guidance.
  • Full, in-depth application support throughout the recruitment process from initial approach, interview preparation and feedback, salary negotiation, resignation management – right up to starting your new opportunity.
  • Up to the minute and specific salary and benefits benchmarking relative to your experience, sector and location.
  • Long term career planning and professional development advice.
  • Complete confidentiality and a guarantee that we will never share your CV with any third party without your express knowledge and consent.

If that sounds like the kind of recruitment partner that you would prefer to work with then please do get in touch with one of our directors:
