Commercial Litigation Solicitor (Sport work included)

I’m currently working with a highly regarded Legal 500 firm based in Harrogate to assist in the recruitment of a Commercial Litigation Solicitor to join its respected and growing Litigation Team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a mid-level litigator (around 4–5 years PQE, though flexibility is offered) to work on a wide-ranging caseload, including complex and high-value matters. The firm has a strong national profile, particularly in alternative dispute resolution and is known for its involvement in high-profile litigation – including work for household-name clients in the sport and media sectors.

The Role Will Include:

• Track record of delivering strong outcomes on complex matters
• Commercial awareness and a proactive, client-focused approach
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong attention to detail and time management
• Willingness to contribute to business development activity

This opportunity would suit someone seeking more visibility and autonomy within a high-performing, modern litigation team. You’ll be working alongside experienced lawyers with access to top-quality work and a supportive firm culture.

What the Firm Offers:

• Competitive salary (market rate, dependent on experience)
• 25 days holiday, plus bank holidays
