Senior Insolvency Solicitor — Lead & Develop (Hybrid Cardiff)

My client, a well-regarded national firm widely recognised in leading legal directories across multiple practice areas, is seeking a talented insolvency lawyer with 5+ years PQE to join their respected Insolvency team. Based in Cardiff, you will work closely with the team lead while collaborating across their offices.

You will work across a wide range of personal and corporate insolvency matters, providing transactional, advisory and contentious support to a varied client base that includes insolvency practitioners, lenders, directors and individuals. Your caseload will span administration appointments, business sales, bankruptcy estates and directors' loan accounts, offering exposure to complex and challenging work. Familiarity with LPA Receivers would be beneficial.

This role offers immediate client exposure and supervisory responsibility, making it ideal for someone ready to step up and lead. Strong knowledge of the Insolvency Act 1986, Insolvency Rules 2016 and Companies Act 2006 is essential.

We are looking for someone with excellent communication skills, a collaborative mindset and a passion for business development. An established industry network is welcome but not required. If you have focused on contentious work and want to broaden your expertise, this is the role for you.

Hybrid working is supported, typically 2‑3 days in the office per week.

• Solid insolvency expertise
• Confidence in managing matters and mentoring junior colleagues
• A proactive, client‑focused approach
• Strong interpersonal skills and a team‑first attitude
