This is an exciting opportunity within a highly entrepreneurial firm's Leeds office for a Banking Solicitor to spread their wings, have every support in making their mark and have a clear and open run at Partnership.
This award-winning firm, with an impressive growth trajectory, could recruit someone as junior as 4 or 5 years pqe, who is perhaps in a team which is well structured and not giving them the clear career opportunity that they are looking for.
They wouldn't need you to bring work with you, but would need you to be confident in managing clients and doing the work, both with support.
However they could also recruit up to Partner level depending upon your track record.
They would be looking for someone who has the appetite to build upon the base of work and contacts that they have so this isn't a role for a Banking Solicitor that doesn't like the limelight.
The clients are very much within the middle market, alternative lenders and challenger banks, these clients are increasingly struggling to cope with the rising rates at the larger firms and this firm can offer a great platform for them as although they are not a large national or international you would find yourself surrounded and supported by other high quality, entrepreneurial lawyers who can deliver a wider service to these clients.
In terms of advancement, that really is down to you, there would be nobody standing in your way, however they do have a banking team within another office so there is still plenty of support.
This firm care about their people, you would be well supported, well enumerated and an important part of their vibrant Leeds office.

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
