They have a clear need for someone who more of a leaning towards non continuous work, although if there was also the interest in the litigious work they could still support you in doing that.
This is a massive career opportunity for someone with the ambition and confidence to become the focal point for the work, whilst they would want you to become the focal point for the work they can however offer support on the technical and client management side if required.
They don't need you to bring work with you as their contact pool is huge and there is an extremely clear need but also a clear career opportunity.
It's likely that you have at least 4 to 5 years pqe, however you could be much more senior.
The team tends to act for corporates and individuals, many of whom are high profile, and need someone to help them to navigate the complex and high-risk regime.
They are keen to speak to anyone with the interest and experience in this rapidly evolving area, in return alongside the career opportunity they can offer a strong package, an exceptional and exciting working environment and lots of flexibility.
This is an award-winning firm, and they offer a highly collegiate, yet stimulating, working environment, not only across team, but also offices and the entire firm.
Whilst the other solicitors in the team are Leeds based, they could also recruit into their office in the North West.

If you are a Contentious Probate Lawyer, looking for the ideal opportunity to make your own mark opportunities don't get much better than this in Leeds.
Sitting within the Commercial Litigation team of this progressive and successful law firm, we are looking for a dedicated Contentious Probate Lawyer, someone who has enough experience to run matters themselves, although there could be support from another office if this is valued, and if you don't need day to day support hey would certainly be a sounding board for you.
This is a new role; the role is being created due to the growth of opportunity as their High Net Work Private Client team goes from strength to strength, alongside the rest of the office!.
The firm offer great support, whether that be with day-to-day matters, marketing, business development or in developing those wider skills that you need to become a leader in your field.
This is a fabulous opportunity and could well suit someone looking to step up and take a lead where they have been part of a team to date.
There are plenty of marketing opportunities for your to plug into, and at the moment not only aren't they not actively promoting this service from Leeds but they are sending work to other offices.
You'd quickly have a base of work locally.
Their expectations would be moulded to support you and your level and remuneration.
It could suit someone mid-level looking to step into a leadership role for the fist time, or an established Partner with a contact book and experience of generating work, looking to join a highly commercial firm and be part of their success story.

This Banking team have a national reach but also a local presence and are looking to recruit a number of Banking Solicitors to their national team to be based in Leeds.
The work available is truly national and of an exceptional quality as they are on many major panels, that said they are not one of the large international firms and consequently they have a completely different offer in terms of environment, approach and career trajectory.
Given their current work, and their pipeline, they are looking for several recruits to deliver on their strategic growth, both at the senior and mid-level.
They are keen to speak to :
Established Banking Partners looking for a good degree of autonomy and a friendly, supportive, down to earth team
Senior Banking Lawyers keen to step into partnership - if you are keen to take on a role where there are existing panel relationships that can be further developed without you feeling like you are treading on the toes of others.
Mid-level Banking lawyers ( 3-6yrs) - it may be that you are already within established team but are looking for a practice where there is plenty of scope for progression and autonomy but with a supportive approach.
It is unusual or a national team to be able to offer such a clear run at so many panels, but they can genuinely do so and by grabbing that opportunity there are clear paths to progression whatever your level.
Whatever your level you will work with household name funders - core banks and alternative lenders - as well as acting for borrowers across corporate and real estate (investment and development).
The quality of the work is equivalent to that at many international firms, and they are looking for someone already handling this work but do promise to offer a different environment than that found in many teams.
The team is down to earth and there are no egos at all.
There are long standing team members, the fact that there is little turnover in this team says a lot about their culture and approach.
They also have a sensible approach to hours and targets, banking solicitors typically work long hours, but this team only does so when it is absolutely necessary.
They like you to have a life outside of work, a career and to feel professionally satisfied with the work that you are doing.
If you are looking for some of the best work available, great career progression, with reasonable work life balance, contact Rachael Mann at Sacco Mann for a confidential discussion on 0113 4677111 or e-mail her rachael.mann@saccomann.com

A successful Commercial Property team in Leeds City Centre with a national reputation is looking to expand and therefore requires a skilled Commercial Property Solicitor to join them.
Our client is a highly regarded law firm handling both national and local work of a very good standard, much of it for household named clients.
Working in modern, open plan offices, they can offer you a friendly and supportive working environment where every effort will be made to support your career development.
The firm is dedicated to quality client relationships and are seeking an ambitious individual with commercial acumen who will strive to maintain the firm's high quality.
Importantly they have a reputation for progressing people at the rate that they are capable of being progressed and there are lots of expels of people really fast tracking their career here, your pace of development can largely be dictated by you rather than the firm's structure.
The Commercial Property team have recently seen an influx of high-quality work and need to recruit to help service this, the work has both come via an upturn in existing clients and some new client wins.
They are looking for someone with the skills to be able to hit the ground running with an existing caseload under minimum supervision, c 2-5 years pqe would be ideal but they are flexible as it's the experience and attitude that are most important to them.
The work available has a particular focus on landlord and tenant matters, involving some complex transactions for the team's national client base which consists of some really well-known major clients. Having said that is you would be able to access a varied workload and if there are areas or particular interest, they are more than likely to be able to accommodate these by moving work around the team. The team is well supported by other departments in the firm such as construction and the property dispute team, giving you and them the ability to deliver at the highest level to clients.
Someone who is a strong communicator and who is able to build and maintain client relationships would fit in really well.
In return you will benefit from a competitive salary and the opportunity to really get stuck into some top-quality work for some fantastic clients in a very supportive environment. They are genuinely concerned that people are doing the right work, have the right support and that the work is shared around the department avoiding people having too much or too little work wherever possible as they understand that neither state is particularly comfortable.
This is a great opportunity to join a forward-thinking, supportive, legal firm and develop your career even further.
To apply or find out more about this Commercial Property Solicitor role please contact Rachael Mann at Sacco Mann.
