A highly regarded Legal 500 law firm is looking to appoint an Associate / Senior Associate (5+ PQE) to join its growing Commercial Disputes team.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a commercially focused practice with an outstanding reputation for delivering high-quality legal advice to businesses, entrepreneurs and owner-managed companies. You'll work alongside experienced Partners on a broad range of complex disputes, while enjoying genuine flexibility, excellent career prospects and a culture that values work-life balance.

Joining a well-established and collaborative team, you'll advise clients across a varied portfolio of contentious matters. The role offers exposure to a broad range of commercial disputes, working with clients across a variety of sectors on high-value and strategically important matters.

• Strong technical and analytical skills with a pragmatic, commercial approach.
• Confidence managing client relationships and running matters with an appropriate level of autonomy.

• An ambition to continue developing their career within a forward-thinking and growing firm.

This is more than just another litigation role. You'll be joining a firm that combines the quality of work and client base often associated with larger national practices, with the culture, accessibility and work-life balance of a leading regional firm.

In return, you'll benefit from:

• High-quality, varied commercial disputes work.
• An established and respected Legal 500 team.

• A supportive, down-to-earth culture where collaboration is encouraged.
• Clear opportunities for progression and career development.
