Job description

We’re a national law firm with a local reach. Our philosophy is ‘Expert Hand, Human Touch’ – something you’ll find in the way we work with our clients and how we support our teams. But, we’re more than just a law firm – we’re a team, working together to help individuals and businesses navigate life’s ups and downs.

Whichever team you join, working here you’ll feel a part of our friendly and inclusive environment. We’ll value you for who you are and what you bring. We support each other and push boundaries to achieve incredible things, and make a real difference to our clients and communities.

The work we do has been recognised in the awards we’ve won. We’re committed to being even better, and our awards help to show we’re on the right track.

We recognise that the office 9-5 isn’t for everyone. That’s why we’ve introduced ‘Flexible by Choice’. Whether it’s working from home, in our offices, or a combination of the both, we trust each other to support our clients, colleagues and communities at the right time, in the right way.

Your Role

An opportunity has arisen within the London office of national law firm Irwin Mitchell for an Associate to assist with the growth and development of our Restructuring and Insolvency team. Our Restructuring & Insolvency in London is a team of experts in their field who handle the whole spectrum of work related to financially distressed businesses and individuals. We act for lenders (including three of the major UK clearing banks), insolvency practitioner and advisory firms with national and niche local practices dealing with the whole range of restructuring (transactional advisory and non-contentious) and contentious insolvency (largely cross border and multi-jurisdictional) assignments.

The team also provides expert advice to corporates on turnaround, restructuring, insolvency and asset recovery matters, and advises those who are the subject of financial difficulties or impacted on by others in financial difficulties. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a well-established team and work on some challenging and high-profile cases.

What We're Looking For

The right candidate will demonstrate ambition, energy, and enthusiasm for this area of the law and seek to work collaboratively with others to create opportunity and deliver something different for clients and our business. He/she will be confident, approachable, and collaborative. We enjoy new ideas, thinking entrepreneurially and identifying new opportunities and working with people across our business regardless of position and title to create the very best solutions for our clients.

Our culture is important. Our client service is dependent upon motivated and happy people in our business. That is achieved when a team shares goals, values, and expectations around behaviours. Our values of approachability, innovation, being pioneering, efficiency and tenacity pervade everything we do and the candidate for this role will share those values and demonstrate how they are reflected in his/her achievements to date.

Our Benefits - What We Can Offer You

  • 25 days annual leave, with the opportunity to buy additional leave
  • Two fundraising days in a year to give back to the community (fully paid!)
  • Westfield Health membership, offering discounted leisure and travel and refunds on medical services

We also offer a huge number of well-being initiatives to encourage positive mental health both in and out of the workplace as well as flexible working options to ensure that you are fully supported to work the way that best suits you. Our social responsibility programme is fundamental to who we are. We’re committed to being a diverse and inclusive workplace where our colleagues can flourish. We have a range of groups to celebrate our people across sexuality, disability, age, gender and culture.

We welcome applications from all diversity groups and backgrounds. We’re committed to enabling everyone to thrive and understanding and celebrating our differences is a key part of that. We’re proud of our work on the Disability Confident scheme, on the Race At Work Charter and as Stonewall Diversity Champions. We also have a range of networks for LGBT+, disability, generations, gender, social mobility, ethnicity, faith and culture to celebrate our people and to enable everyone to thrive.
