Location: ScottishPower HQ
Salary: Competitive + Annual Bonus + Family Healthcare + Car Allowance
At ScottishPower, we're transforming the UK's energy system to deliver a cleaner, smarter and more secure future. To support that ambition, we're looking for a Litigation Solicitor to join our legal team, with a particular focus on commercial disputes and construction related litigation.
This is a role where your legal expertise will directly support major infrastructure and energy projects-helping manage risk, resolve disputes and protect the delivery of critical programmes that underpin the journey to Net Zero.
In this role, you will be working as part of a respected and very collaborative team. You will advise on a wide variety of disputes including:
Complex high value construction disputes, linked to major infrastructure projects.
Shareholder disputes
Property litigation
Complex and high value debt recovery matters
Contractual disputes
You'll support dispute avoidance through early issue identification, contract interpretation and risk assessment, helping to shape effective dispute strategy and deliver pragmatic, commercially focused outcomes.
Working closely with senior stakeholders, project teams and external advisers, you'll manage disputes from instruction through to resolution, including overseeing external counsel where required. You will have a high level of autonomy with this role.
You'll be a qualified solicitor with a current UK practising certificate and have a minimum of 4 years PQE in relation to litigation and dispute resolution matters.
You will have strong experience advising on disputes, have experience of different forms of dispute resolution processes and ideally have had exposure to construction, engineering or infrastructure matters, although not essential.
Your experience may have been gained in private practice or within an in-house legal team, and you'll be known for your pragmatic, solutions focused approach. Confident engaging with senior stakeholders, you'll combine strong commercial awareness with the ability to balance legal risk against business priorities and deliver clear, practical advice.
Why join now?
ScottishPower is investing heavily in the future of energy-and legal is at the heart of that transformation. This is a rare opportunity to join a high-profile team, work on game-changing projects, and build a career with real purpose.
We welcome expressions of interest and are happy to provide further details in confidence.
As well as a competitive salary which is reviewed annually, you can also enjoy a number of other benefits. With our pension scheme, we'll double match your contribution up to a company contribution of 10%.
