    Paralegals in the Insolvency & Restructuring team run their own varied caseload of routine disputes matters and provide comprehensive support to our lawyers on complex, high-stakes I&R proceedings.

    We are seeking an experienced Paralegal to join us, ideally possessing at least 4 years' experience in managing civil disputes proceedings in a law firm or similar environment. Prior I&R experience is advantageous but not essential - if you have demonstrable experience in a litigation environment and an excellent understanding of the Civil Procedure Rules you will be considered.
