You’ll work on a varied, quality caseload across civil and commercial litigation, with modern systems, supportive leadership, and realistic targets that prioritise excellent client outcomes.

Why this firm appeals

• Reputation & pipeline: Established Oxfordshire brand with steady instructions from local businesses, professionals, and referrers — giving you consistent, interesting matters without volume-driven burnout.


• Career you can shape: Clear progression (Senior Associate / Team Lead), hands-on mentoring from experienced litigators, and genuine BD support to help you build your profile.


• People-first culture: Collaborative team, modern case management, and a sensible hybrid pattern so you can focus on strategy and advocacy rather than admin.

• Solid knowledge of civil procedure and litigation strategy


• Clear communicator who builds trust with clients and colleagues


• Organised, commercially aware, and solution-focused


• Comfortable taking ownership of files, yet collaborative within a close-knit team

• £45,000 to £60,000 (aligned to PQE and caseload complexity)


• Bonus scheme, hybrid working, funded CPD, and route to promotion


• 25+ days’ holiday (plus BH) and enhanced benefits
