Our client is a highly successful, full-service law firm, which enjoys an enviable reputation in the niche areas of Transport & Logistics.

For strategic reasons as well meeting increasing needs of clients, new openings have arisen for experienced lawyers (associate and senior associate). Applications at partner level are also welcomed.

The team offers a wealth of experience which is second to none. Retained by hauliers, logistics, warehousing and transports clients, the department provides a comprehensive service covering commercial, disputes, regulatory and compliance issues. The client base is diverse from OMB, to SMEs and large corporates with substantial fleets and operations in the industry.

Typical instructions include:
