Pensions Lawyer (Associate) – NQ to 5 years PQE
Location: Glasgow or Edinburgh
Brief
We are looking to recruit a newly qualified to 5 years PQE lawyer to join our Scottish pensions team which is top ranked in the Legal 500 and Chambers legal directories.
Background
The Pinsent Masons pensions team is one of the strongest pensions teams in the UK. Spanning our offices in London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Edinburgh and Glasgow, we have over 70 highly trained lawyers, paralegals and independent trustee administrators. We are dedicated to providing clear, practical, cost-effective advice for our clients, which include large global corporations, pension fund trustees, public authorities, insurance companies and other financial institutions. Our strength in the pensions field is reflected in an extensive list of clients, which includes trustees, sponsors, bulk annuity insurers, third party administrators and master trusts.
Legal directories such as Legal 500 and Chambers consistently rate us as a leading pensions team in London, the West Midlands, the North, and in Scotland. Incorporating a market-leading pensions litigation practice and an in-house independent trustee company, no pensions team has a greater breadth of expertise and we have successfully future-proofed our practice by extending our work into areas that are outside of the traditional comfort zone for pension lawyers – examples of this being our high profile work for pension providers and our ground-breaking work in relation to pension fund investment in infrastructure. In addition as part of a firm with an impressive full-service capability, we are able to deal with every type of pensions issue, no matter what other areas it may touch upon.
We are unique in providing a pensions practice which is arranged into a series of client service lines, to help bring a clearer focus to our work, and allow members of the team to develop their skills and increase their experience in particular areas.
An ambitious team which is continuing to grow, we have a high profile within Pinsent Masons and across the pensions market. We are the only pensions team to have won awards for innovation, having won FT Innovative Lawyer
