Healthcare Regulatory Solicitors (All Levels)

Healthcare Regulatory Solicitors, All Levels - Leeds (Hybrid/Remote applicants will also be considered) Partner / Legal Director/Senior Associate / Associate/ Solicitor / NQ

A Unique Opportunity!

We are working with a leading commercial law firm with offices in the UK and Ireland, and a standout reputation in healthcare regulatory and professional discipline work. Its Healthcare Team is top ranked by both Chambers and the Legal 500.

The firm is now investing in and expanding that team in England, and is recruiting ambitious legal professionals at all levels.

There is already a busy workload of complex, high-quality work for existing clients, so this is a chance to join an established, top-ranked practice at the beginning of a new phase with a busy workstream of high quality work. Depending on experience, there is scope to help lead and develop a new sub-team as part of the continued growth of the wider healthcare practice.

The Work;

The team represents regulated professionals and commercial clients across the health and social care sectors, including indemnifiers and healthcare professionals. The caseload is unusually broad and regularly includes high-profile matters:

• Fitness to practise proceedings
• Disciplinary proceedings
• Ombudsman investigations
• Criminal matters
• Coronial work
• Public and statutory inquiries
• Judicial review

We are hiring at all levels

Partner / Legal Director - Helping to lead and develop a new sub-team within an established, top-ranked practice. Real scope to shape how it is built and how it grows, with the backing of leading healthcare partners and extensive multi-jurisdictional experience behind you.

Senior Associate / Associate- Running your own diverse caseload of fitness to practise investigations including high-profile matters, with genuine autonomy and direct client contact. You will also supervise and mentor trainees, junior solicitors and paralegals, and contribute to business development across the healthcare sector. Because the team is growing, there is a clear route to progression rather than waiting for a gap to open above you.

Solicitor / NQ - Exceptional early-career breadth. Few regulatory roles at this level offer exposure to fitness to practise proceedings, inquests, criminal matters, public inquiries and judicial review within a single practice, with structured supervision from leading healthcare lawyers.

Who we would like to hear from

Healthcare experience is ideal, but it is not essential. Candidates with broader regulatory and professional discipline experience will also be considered. If you work in professional discipline, financial services regulation, health and safety, environmental, licensing or another regulated field, the core of what you do transfers directly and we are keen to hear from you.

What's on offer

• Competitive salary and benefits
• Significant flexibility. Based in Leeds or fully remote, with occasional travel to the office for team collaboration, client engagement and business requirements
• The opportunity to work alongside leading solicitors, clients, experts and counsel in a specialised field across multiple jurisdictions
• Strong exposure to high-quality work and direct client contact with indemnifiers and healthcare professionals
• Structured, personalised mentoring and support, with a clear path for career progression in a positive and modern working environment
