Commercial Disputes Partner

Commercial Disputes Partner, Manchester - exceptional PEP This dynamic top 50 UK law firm is on target to achieve yet another record year of growth in the city, as well as nationally, and is seeking to add to its litigation team. Despite not having been in Manchester for much more than a decade, the firm is punching well above its weight and extending its reputation in London and across Europe into our region. With a focus on high value and complex disputes across various sectors and dealing with matters across the full range of commercial dispute including insolvency, probate, corporate crime and professional negligence - you'll find a supportive environment that values autonomy and thrives on its entrepreneurial spirit. Renowned for its approachable and inclusive culture, the firm is led by a local head of department who has been with the firm for over a decade. You'll have the opportunity to develop your expertise with the backing of a collaborative national network with strong international ties. The firm is heavily involved in several local and national charity initiatives, all started and developed by peers with passion. The firm offers excellent benefits as well as very clear, structured pathways for progression for its diverse workforce. With one of the highest profit per equity partner figures in the North West, this firm might not be the first you think of in the city, but its heavyweight team operates effectively under the radar. This rare opportunity has arisen due to succession planning and is ideal for an experienced lawyer with either broad experience or with expertise in a particular sector. You may be considering relocating or perhaps you have a business plan and crave greater entrepreneurial freedom than your current position allows. What comes across as a key feature at this firm is that the successful candidate will be eager to excel within a supportive, down to earth team that values inclusion and innovation.
