For senior litigators with a focus on property, construction, or commercial disputes—this could be the right next step.

If you're a Dispute Resolution lawyer with 5+ years’ PQE and a strong track record in property litigation, contentious construction, or commercial contract disputes, this is the kind of opportunity that offers more than just a change of scenery.

I’m working with a leading team in Leeds—well-established in the local market and trusted by high-profile commercial clients across sectors. The team is known for high-quality work, a clear structure for progression, and a culture where collaboration and professional development go hand in hand.

You’ll step into a Senior Associate role with genuine influence: managing a varied caseload, helping shape litigation strategy, mentoring junior lawyers, and playing a key role in client relationships. The work spans complex landlord and tenant issues, rights to light, boundary disputes, construction contract claims (NEC, JCT, etc.), and broader commercial litigation.

What they’re looking for is clear: someone who combines solid technical ability with commercial insight. A background that blends property litigation, construction disputes, and commercial contracts will be a strong match—but what really matters is your ability to handle contentious work with confidence, clarity, and autonomy.

This is a team where people are backed to grow. Progression is transparent. Work/life balance is taken seriously. And flexibility—whether in working pattern or leadership style—is built into the culture.

Competitive salary. Senior Associate title. Strong pipeline of work. Real opportunities for future progression.

If you’re ready to move into a senior role with purpose, visibility, and support—this could be the one.
