An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the in-house advocacy team of a well-established, nationally recognised law firm with an outstanding reputation for delivering high-quality legal services. With flexible working at the heart of its culture, this role is open to experienced advocates based anywhere across England & Wales.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Barrister looking to move away from self-employment into a supportive employed role, or for a Solicitor Advocate with Higher Rights of Audience seeking to join a highly regarded advocacy team.

- Commercial Litigation
- Employment

Working closely with legal teams across the firm, you will play a key role in delivering exceptional client service through high-quality advocacy, legal drafting and advisory work. The position offers a varied caseload, with opportunities to appear both remotely and in person across a wide range of hearings.
You'll also benefit from dedicated administrative support, including diary and case management from an experienced advocacy clerk, allowing you to focus on delivering first-class legal representation.
This is a genuinely varied and rewarding role, offering regular courtroom advocacy, intellectually stimulating work and the opportunity to further develop your advocacy career within a collaborative and supportive environment.
About You
Applications are welcomed from qualified Barristers and Solicitor Advocates who can demonstrate:
- Qualification as a Barrister or Solicitor with Higher Rights of Audience.
- Proven advocacy experience acting for either claimants or defendants.
- Experience undertaking drafting, advisory work and client conferences.
- Strong technical knowledge in one or more of the following areas: Personal Injury, Family, Commercial Litigation or Employment.
- The ability to work both independently and collaboratively with legal teams.
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with a client-focused approach.
What's on Offer
- Join a highly regarded national law firm with an excellent reputation.
- Flexible and hybrid working, with location no barrier across England & Wales.
- High-quality advocacy work across a diverse range of practice areas.
- Dedicated clerking support.
- A collaborative, inclusive culture with genuine opportunities for long-term career development.
If you're looking to take the next step in your advocacy career within a supportive, forward-thinking legal environment, I'd be delighted to discuss this opportunity with you in confidence. Apply today or get in touch for a confidential conversation.
