Solicitor/Senior Solicitor - Edinburgh, United Kingdom - Burness Paull

Description

Do you thrive on finding practical and creative solutions for clients, and want to build a career in an area of the law that is ever-changing - pensions?

Our team is growing and we're looking for individuals with a passion for pensions to join in either of our Edinburgh or Glasgow offices. This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside and learn from our large pensions team who have backgrounds and expertise in all areas of pensions – actuarial and benefit consultancy as well as legal. At a junior level, you'll use this to your advantage, drawing on that support as you are exposed to a wide variety of pensions work before deciding where your own strengths lie and which areas of pensions law you'll specialise in as you become more qualified (win, win)

Not only do the pensions team find the quality and calibre of the work intellectually stimulating, they also form fantastic relationships with their clients – with direct client contact from an early stage of your career. The team invests a huge amount of time in getting to know their colleagues too, which makes it a fantastic place to work when you have colleagues to share ideas with.

The variety of work is why no two days are the same. Our pensions team operates as trusted advisors to clients in a wide variety of sectors. We advise trustee and corporates, and advise on DB and DC schemes, master trusts and contentious pensions matters. Ideally, we're looking for someone with an understanding of pensions law or corporate transactional experience.

Are you ready to switch to a role that you'll never find dull?
