About the Role
Want to be a part of the revolutionising of legal service delivery in Scotland? Interested in gaining the benefit of time in-house without losing the technical edge of private practice?

Prior to secondment opportunities, you will receive full training and integration within the relevant practice group team, allowing you to integrate with the client and then return back to CMS in between or at the end of secondments. We are looking for lawyers based in Edinburgh or Glasgow with some travel flexibility.
