Contentious Construction Solicitor

20 Days Old

Job Description

Contentious Construction Senior Associate/Legal Director | 6+ PQE | Bristol


A specialist contentious construction team within a leading independent UK firm is growing in response to demand, and the work is high-profile.


This isn't small builder disputes or routine adjudications. The team handles complex, often multi-jurisdictional disputes on major projects across energy, utilities, transport and real estate.

The practice is litigation, arbitration, adjudication and ADR, with a strong emphasis on strategic troubleshooting through the project lifecycle rather than only stepping in once disputes have escalated.


The Work

You will lead disputes across UK and international forums, including the TCC, domestic and international arbitration, adjudication and mediation.


At this level, you will run your own caseload, manage client relationships directly and play a key role in mentoring and supervising junior lawyers. The team sits within a full-service independent firm, so you will work alongside projects, real estate, insolvency and commercial teams when disputes require broader expertise.


Why This Makes Sense

The firm is ambitious, sector-focused and well-regarded, with a clear strategy to be the market-leading independent UK firm. The contentious construction practice is growing, which means client ownership, profile and the opportunity to shape the direction of the team.


At 6+ PQE, you will have the platform to operate as a lead adviser on complex disputes while working within a culture described as nurturing, inclusive and fresh-thinking, with a focus on people flourishing and clear development.


If you want to lead high-quality construction disputes on large-scale projects within a growing, well-regarded team, this is worth a conversation.
