Senior Team Manager - £££ Package

Experienced Lawyer and Manager 

Litigation OR Leasehold Experience

Hybrid - East Midlands

Fantastic, career changing opportunity for a lawyer (solicitor or legal executive) to lead a busy, successful and profitable team within a top performing, specialist law firm.

This is a Head of Department role which also sits on the firm's Senior Leadership Team. It is a challenging and varied role which encompasses:

  • management
  • strategy
  • system and legal process development
  • high growth environment
  • leadership
  • fee earning
  • target setting
  • mentoring and performance management
  • hiring

The successful hire will manage a team of lease extension and enfranchisement fee earners and the firm is investing in this area and expects to see significant growth in order to capitalise on its reputation for excellence in the market place.

There is the know-how and experience within the firm to upskill this new hire into this specialist area and the characteristics of a strong manager (with legal experience which can transfer) are more key than the particular specialism of legal experience gained to date.

This is a business critical role and the expectation is that it will be filled by an experienced lawyer (whether that is legal exec / solicitor).

Who would this suit?

  • An experienced lawyer (solicitor or legal executive) with team management experience.
  • Experience could be in litigation (inc insurance / volume or property, for example) or property (residential, commercial, leasehold, enfranchisement).
  • Someone with a growth mindset, who is ambitious, motivated, and keen to play a pivotal role in the performance and profitability of their team and wider firm.
  • Someone who wants 'a seat at the table' with the most senior stakeholders - CEO, CFO, Directors etc.
  • Someone who is driven to provide the highest levels of client service.
  • Someone who wants to work for a fantastic firm with excellent management, know how, BD teams and support.

Benefits:

  • Fantastic basic salary £££
  • Hybrid
  • Full-time
  • Excellent bonus scheme
  • Pension
  • Private Health
