  • Strong grounding in matrimonial finance and private children work
  • Excellent client care skills, with empathy and professionalism
  • A constructive, resolution-minded approach to dispute management

  • Access sophisticated, high-value work normally reserved for larger city firms
  • Work alongside leading specialists in family and matrimonial finance law
  • Modern, flexible working culture with hybrid options
  • Transparent progression pathways and supportive leadership
  • Competitive salary and benefits, with genuine investment in your long-term career
