I’m working with a growing law firm that’s looking to bring in a Property Litigation Solicitor or CILEX (2+ PQE) to join their increasingly busy team. This is very much a growth hire, with work levels rising and a strong pipeline already in place.
\n
\nWhat’s particularly nice about this role is the flexibility. They’re open on level (as long as you’ve got some solid experience), happy with hybrid working, and can even accommodate part-time, so it’s a genuinely adaptable opportunity.
\n
\nThe role itself
\nYou’ll be joining a small but busy litigation team, working closely with an experienced and well-regarded head of department. The caseload is a really good mix, roughly:
\n 

\n\t
• 50/50 split of residential and commercial property litigation
\n\t
• Handling your own caseload from start to finish
\n\t
• Dealing with both existing client work and new enquiries
\n\t
• A variety of disputes, so plenty of scope to build breadth of experience
\n

There’s already more than enough work coming in, so the focus is very much on delivery rather than business development.
\n
\nWho this would suit
\n 

\n\t
• A qualified Solicitor or CILEX with 2+ years’ PQE
\n\t
• Experience in property litigation (or a broader civil litigation background with an interest in specialising)
\n\t
• Someone confident managing their own caseload
\n\t
• Able to hit the ground running, but also open to someone more junior who wants to develop
\n\t
• Organised, proactive, and comfortable working in a smaller team
\n\t
• A team player who’s happy to get stuck in
\n

What you’ll get in return

\n\t
• A steady flow of quality work with no pressure to bring in clients
\n\t
• A genuinely flexible approach to hybrid and part-time working
\n\t
• The chance to work closely with a highly regarded and supportive team lead
\n\t
• Real responsibility and autonomy from an early stage
\n\t
• Opportunity to grow with a department that’s actively expanding
\n\t
• Scope to shape the team longer term as it continues to develop
\n

This is a great option for a Property Litigation lawyer who wants a solid caseload, flexibility, and the chance to be part of a growing team without the pressure of heavy business development.
