Orwins is expanding and we are looking for an experienced immigration lawyer to join us at partner level — bringing specialist expertise into a firm that is growing fast and thinking big.
We do law differently — focused on building genuine, lasting relationships with our clients and delivering advice that makes a real difference to their lives and businesses. Immigration law is a priority growth area for us, reflecting the needs of our client base — from businesses navigating right-to-work and sponsorship obligations to individuals and families seeking visas, settlement and citizenship.
What This Looks Like
- Building and leading the firm's immigration practice — advising business and private clients on the full range of UK immigration matters.
- Advising employers on sponsor licence applications, compliance, right-to-work obligations and skilled worker visa applications.
- Supporting individual and family clients on visas, settlement, British citizenship, appeals and judicial review.
- Working closely with the employment and private client teams on matters where immigration intersects with employment law and personal affairs.
- Developing a client base within a firm that is growing nationally and has a genuine appetite to invest in immigration as a standalone practice.
What We Are Looking For
An experienced immigration lawyer with strong technical knowledge across business and/or personal immigration, an established or developing client base, and the drive to build a practice that punches above its weight within a growing national firm.
What You Will Get
At Orwins, we invest in our people just as much as our future. Our future is our people. This is a firm where your voice is heard, your contribution is recognised, and your development is taken seriously — not just talked about.
You will get genuine access to our C-Suite, senior partners, leaders, experts and clients from day one, working closely with a team that values expertise, supports each other and takes pride in doing things well. We are growing fast, and the people who join us will grow with us too.
- A competitive remuneration package, commensurate with your experience and the firm’s growth plans
- 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and your birthday off — increasing with service
- Private Medical Insurance through Vitality
- Cash plan through Medicash
- EAP scheme (open to family members)
- Enhanced wellbeing and family-friendly policies
- Salary sacrifice pension through NEST
- Hybrid working — we trust you to know where you do your best work
- Fresh, open plan offices across Manchester, Finchley and Reading
- CSR events and summer and winter colleague celebrations
- A people-focused, collaborative culture that makes coming to work genuinely worth it
Confidential conversations welcome.
