Recruiter Name Rachael Mann

We are seeking a talented and dedicated Commercial Litigation Solicitor to join a highly reputable and growing Leeds-based team.

This role offers exposure to a varied and high-quality caseload of complex disputes, with particular emphasis on professional negligence, financial litigation (including pensions), and substantial corporate litigation. At the same time, the role provides a healthy breadth of work, making it an excellent opportunity for those in the earlier stages of their litigation career.

You will handle matters both independently and as part of a collaborative team, providing strategic advice to clients and working closely with senior partners to develop innovative and practical legal solutions. The position offers the chance to strengthen your litigation skills within a supportive, dynamic environment, contributing to high-profile cases that have a real impact on organisations.

The ideal candidate will be:

  • A Commercial Litigation Solicitor with 0–3 years’ PQE

  • Possess a strong understanding of litigation processes and relevant legal frameworks

  • An excellent communicator with strong client management skills

  • Comfortable working independently as well as collaboratively in a fast-paced environment

  • Proactive in legal research and case development

  • Confident, commercially minded, and unafraid to challenge ideas or think differently, with the common sense and interpersonal skills to build positive client relationships

In return, you will benefit from:

  • Genuine investment in your career and personal development, not just technical training

  • Access to high-quality work and early responsibility that many international firms cannot offer

  • A competitive remuneration package, alongside flexibility and independence, including hybrid and flexible working and a full benefits package

  • Ongoing and fully supported career development

  • The opportunity to be part of a firm that is growing sustainably and positively
