Interesting option for a Corporate solicitor to join a highly prestigious practice providing quality work within a collegiate and supportive team.
We believe this combination makes this a really attractive role: There is plenty of scope to hone both technical and client care skills, learn from a leading corporate partner and to do so in an environment where ‘working all hours' is not the norm.
Moreover the team is flourishing and growing and as such will open up genuine opportunity for career advancement.
The work whilst encompassing the spectrum of Corporate matters will have a private company M&A focus to it and this role will suit a corporate solicitor with solid post qualification expertise in this arena.
There is also some scope to build the role around the skill base and requirements of the incoming lawyer and to this end we would be happy to have a preliminary discussion with potentially interested parties to discuss how the role can be tailored to play to individual skills.
