This specialist, innovative law firm is looking to recruit an Employment Partner.
A unique firm with a national presence, and a significant portion of the team working entirely remotely - which is something they could accommodate for this role.
There is a clear Partner level opportunity here and the appointment won't be dependant on you bringing your own work / contacts - there is plenty of work and scope within the existing client base.
What is crucial however is significant experience working on large scale, complex employment tribunal matters - exposure to working with public sector clients (or perhaps within a TU firm), would also be a bonus.
You should be comfortable managing and supervising more junior lawyers.
The firm has long been a pioneer for remote working and this role could be worked predominantly from home, anywhere in the UK (with some travel required initially and then on an ad-hoc basis, to the office which is based in Oxfordshire).
The successful candidate will likely have around 10+ years PQE within Employment law and will have worked at a senior level within a reputable law firm.
This is a truly unique position for a lawyer looking for something fundamentally different.
If you are interested in this remote working Employment Partner role, please contact Sophie Linley at Sacco Mann on 0113 236 6711 or Sophie.linley@saccomann.com

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

Are you a Commercial Property Solicitor with experience in one of the larger firms within Yorkshire? Would you like a clear track to partnership but worry that you don't have a defined client following? Are you looking to spread your wings and work differently? Would you like to remain within a high-profile firm but one where you can genuinely have a work life balance? You may think it's not possible to have all these things, but this Commercial Property role genuinely offers all the above and more.
This innovative firm, who are relatively new to Leeds, have brought a completely different approach to the market and one that is extremely refreshing.
They believe that their lawyers thrive when they are given the support and space to do so and as a consequence, they don't set high targets.
They want you to be able to be the best that you can for their clients whilst also having the time to get involved in wider activities whether they be training, client development, CSR etc.
Having recruited for them I can genuinely say that this is the case, not just some lovely theory.
They are looking to recruit a Commercial Property Solicitor who is confident dealing with household names (most within exciting sectors), someone with experience in landlord and tenant work and ideally also a small amount of corporate support.
You will need to be confident in running files, have strong technical skills which you combine with being commercially savvy and string client skills.
Whilst they have an existing commercial property team, you would be their first recruit into the North of England.
This is a unique and exciting opportunity and key is that they are not looking for a following of work, they do however need someone who can dig into their existing client base to generate work with the support of the wider partnership.
They would need you to take a strategic approach to client development, but there are plenty of existing clients where they have strong, and long standing working relationships, but where they are either not asking for their commercial property work at the moment due to capacity, or are even turning it away.
This role would suit a lawyer with strong client and technical skills, someone looking for a clear track to partnership and a genuine support network to capitalise upon that.
To find out more about this unique Commercial Property opportunity within this unusual and exciting law firm, with a clear route to partnership, call Rachael Mann on 0113 4677111 for a confidential conversation or e-mail her at : Rachael.Mann@saccomann.com ....Read more...

If you are a commercial property lawyer looking for a role within a modern firm where there is a clear opportunity for career development, it's worth reading on……
This new opportunity has just arisen to join an established commercial property team, working alongside a highly experienced partner.
Given the workflow they are looking for someone with a minimum of 2 years pqe as they need you to be confident working with a certain level of independence, however you could have much more experience.
Based in North Yorkshire the firm offers a different option from many of the roles that are within the larger cities, yet they still have a strong budget and good quality work.
The work is broad ranging, and they are ideally looking for someone with experience across sales and purchases, commercial leases, corporate support, finances, development and landlord and tenant.
Examples of the work include:
Acquisitions of shops, offices, bare land and industrial units (including multi-let mixed use buildings)
Confident in negotiating leases and the supporting documents for commercial properties
Acquired and financed land for residential development sites
Whilst not essential it would be ideal if you had experience in, or were keen to develop experience in:
development matters including negotiating option agreements and overage provisions, and
property finance
The firm act for a lot of Yorkshire businesses, as well as some that are further afield, and are keen that whoever joins them will be happy to embed themself with their clients and the local business community.
This practice promotes entirely on merit, meaning that there is no glass ceiling, your career really will be in your own hands.
They also want you to have a good balance between work and your life outside work, in support of this they offer a flexible package which stretches beyond hybrid working and into flexible working where, by way of example, you can offset hours worked beyond their standard hours (35 hours p/w) against shorter days or days off.
If you are a Commercial Property Solicitor considering your career, do get in touch with me for a confidential conversation about this opportunity .
I can explain more about this unique role as well as elaborating on the market generally if that is of interest to you.
You can call me on 0113 467 9797 or email me at Kieran.Wallace@saccomann.com .
