This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.

At Browne Jacobson, we've always worked across business and society, and this expertise sets us apart. Social and environmental impact are at the top of our business agenda. We champion fairness, make the complex simple and forge connections between clients to find creative solutions. This is how we improve outcomes for every person, community and business we serve.

With offices in Birmingham, Cardiff, Dublin, Exeter, London, Manchester and Nottingham, we're a UK & I based law firm with an international reach. Our sectors include: health; real estate and construction; education; energy and infrastructure; financial services; government; insurance; manufacturing and industrials; and retail, consumer and logistics.

We nurture talent at all levels and from every background and celebrate what makes people individuals. Law needs all voices to reflect the society it serves which is why all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, colour, national origin, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, social economic background or age.

We're a Disability Confident Employer and will offer an interview to disabled applicants who best meet the minimum/essential criteria for the role.

We strive to create meaningful personal and professional development opportunities and offer flexible working in support of a good work-life balance. We focus on wellbeing and individuality, so that all our people can thrive.

Why is this role important and how does it fit into the team, department and wider firm?

We are seeking a senior associate to join our Commercial Dispute Resolution Team, which itself is part of the Business and Professional Risk department of the firm. The team works for numerous well-known local, national and international businesses in the private sector; and a broad range of clients in the public sector including healthcare, education and local/central government. The team consistently attracts work of a high calibre, value and complexity.

This is a great opportunity to take a leading role on a range of commercial litigation matters, and conduct your own caseload with appropriate supervision, and to be centrally involved in complex matters. The role will require an active involvement in business development to support the growth of the team in the North West.

If external support is required on a vacancy, a member of the Browne Jacobson recruitment team will release the role to one of our agency partners. We ask that recruitment agencies do not send CVs unless instructed on the role. Please note that any speculative CVs submitted via agencies without invitation will not be considered as represented by the agency.
