Are you an ambitious Paralegal with an LPC, seeking a 2 year Training Contract as a Trainee Solicitor?
My client is a relatively new Law firm, but part of a global family-owned business with a client list of over 35,000 clients. Based in central Manchester, this successful and growing Law firm supports and guides clients covering both contentious and non-contentious legal matters first and foremost to clients within the Group.

With a completed LPC behind you, you will be seeking to establish yourself within a busy practice, and embark upon a 2 year Training Contract spending time in different areas of the business including Advisory, Group in-house legal, Health & Safety and Finance. Through different "seats" you will be exposed to a number of areas of Law including Employment, Intellectual Property, Data Protection, Health & Safety, Commercial and Civil Litigation.
The majority of your time will be spent working within the Advisory Solicitors Team, and as such you will need to be able and confident to communicate clearly and confidently on the phone dealing with clients, to provide accurate legally compliant business advice, and the needs of individual clients highlighting any options that are non-compliant and the risks that these options might present.
This is an OFFICE based role, Monday to Friday.
This is an exciting opportunity to put your legal skills / legal academia to test, and embark upon an exciting career as a Trainee Solicitor with the goal to progress with a reputable and growing Law firm.
