PQE 3 -5 Years Qualified Solicitor – Litigation and Dispute Resolution

BTMK Solicitors are looking to recruit a highly motivated and experienced candidate to join us in our Litigation and Dispute Resolution Department.

BTMK is looking for 3-5PQE Solicitor to join our team in our Litigation and Dispute Resolution Team.

This opportunity arises as a result of growing business needs and a high quality volume of work in the team.

With two Senior Directors and a department consisting of 9 team members across two BTMK offices, this presents a hugely exciting opportunity for the right candidate who is looking to progress their career, as well as to help the existing Directors to shape the team and to prepare for the next stage of growth.

The new team member will naturally be expected to have significant experience in this discipline, will be an accomplished solicitor with experience of managing their own caseload. The successful candidate should be looking forward to joining a highly regarded practice, with over 130 members of staff across four large office locations and with clear plans for growth and expansion over the next five years. BTMK has a clear formula for growth and career development.

The appropriate candidate for this role will have experience in (a non-exhaustive list):

• All areas of general civil and commercial litigation including work arising out of business and partnership disputes, shareholder disputes;
• Property litigation, and ideally, a knowledge of contentious commercial landlord and tenant work including dilapidations and lease renewals
• A good knowledge of all litigation processes, including ADR and an ability to represent clients in Court and at mediation where appropriate
• Knowledge of insolvency law and process would also be a strong attribute (but not essential)

The successful candidate for this role will be expected to meet with the current Heads of Department on a regular basis, and to help to shape the litigation and dispute resolution team with other non-director members of the team for the future.

Salary and remuneration commensurate with experience and responsibility.
Flexible and agile working will be considered but the needs of the business and clients must be borne in mind.

Appropriate support/PA support will be provided who will have knowledge of any existing caseload to be passed over but this will be a well-supported role via the Heads of Department.

This opportunity would be ideal for a suitably qualified individual looking to move away from a City environment but with the quality of work that they are accustomed to.
