Coming towards the end of your training contract and wondering “What’s next?”
Maybe you’ve loved your criminal seat, built up valuable experience and now feel ready to take that next step... But there’s no room in the inn at your current firm. We’ve all been there!
I’m working with one of the UK’s leading criminal defence firms, who are looking for their next investment piece.
About the firm
This is a firm with an outstanding reputation across criminal defence, fraud and regulatory work, known for handling complex, high-profile matters and delivering exceptional client care.
Based in Manchester, they’re a forward-thinking firm with a strong presence in the legal market, and a fantastic social media presence to match!
They work with both businesses and individuals who require expert, strategic representation across some of the most challenging and high-profile cases.
The opportunity
They’re looking for an NQ Criminal Defence Solicitor who is:
Ambitious and driven
Passionate about criminal defence
Keen to build a long-term career within a specialist firm
Confident working with clients and handling responsibility
Ready to learn, develop and take on complex work
Most importantly, they’re looking for someone they can genuinely invest in and develop.
You’ll have the opportunity to work alongside experienced criminal defence lawyers, gain exposure to complex matters and continue building your expertise within a highly regarded team.
Who are they looking for?
Ideally, you’ll be approaching qualification with criminal defence experience from your training contract and be ready to hit the ground running as an NQ.
Not quite NQ? No problem. If you’re 1–3 PQE with criminal defence experience, I’d still love to hear from you.
This could be a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for a firm where there’s room to grow, develop and build a genuinely exciting career.
