Planning Senior Associate Solicitor

My client is a leading national law firm who now has a fantastic opportunity for a Planning Senior Associate (5 years + PQE) to join their expanding team in Manchester. This team specialises in energy and infrastructure projects and has recently gained a number of big contract wins.

The firms international focus has led to the client acting for a number of European energy clients and there is a great opportunity to develop this part of the practice. The team work cross office with plenty of opportunity to work on projects across the country. The works consist of a wide range of development planning and contentious planning issues.

The client is looking for a personable, ambitious, commercially focused lawyer to join a small and friendly team. You will play a key role in the team and be encouraged to develop your own practice and contacts in a collegiate environment.

The ideal candidate will be able to demonstrate your skills with relevant experience with commercial clients in a similar environment.

On offer is an excellent starting salary with outstanding long term career prospects.

Please contact Jon-Paul Hanrahan, Managing Consultant, to discuss this role in more detail or apply through the vacancy for immediate consideration.
