The team advises on:

Join a Legal 500-ranked, nationally recognised law firm with a strong reputation in the Bristol market and across the UK. You'll be part of one of the country's largest pensions teams, working alongside leading experts and supporting an impressive client base that includes major corporates, public sector bodies and household names.
