Corporate Partner

Partner Opportunity - Niche Commercial Law Firm | Lancashire | No Following Required

A specialist business law firm based in Lancashire is offering a rare opportunity for a senior corporate lawyer (8+ PQE) to step into a true partnership role—without the pressure of bringing a client following.

The firm is exclusively focused on corporate and commercial work for a diverse, high-quality client base.

Clients include dynamic owner-managed businesses, fast-growing SMEs, and private equity-backed companies across various sectors and industries.

You would find yourself working across from large regional, national, and international firms—consistently delivering results that exceed expectations for a firm of its size.

With a supportive, collegiate, and flexible culture, the firm prioritises collaboration and client service over internal competition.

It is a place where people genuinely enjoy working together.

Due to a current partner moving into a client development role, the firm is now seeking a new partner to take the lead in managing existing client relationships, overseeing ongoing matters, and supporting and leading the experienced team.

While there is room for business development activity, they certainly don't require a following of work, however if you have loyal clients whom you would wish to move to a new firm, our client is open minded based on individual business cases and salary would be reflective of this.

This role would suit:

• A senior associate or existing partner from a larger firm—particularly someone based in Manchester seeking a high-calibre role closer to home;


• Or an individual considering relocating or returning to Lancashire for a more balanced, high-quality practice.


• Someone keen to put client service at the heart of what they do


• Someone wanting to become a genuine ‘owner' within a practice where that can make a wider impact and have a wider say

What's on offer:

• A different approach - no financial targets and a genuinely people-centric ethos;


• A genuine partnership role with a clear route to equity;


• A strong financial package from day one;


• Hybrid and flexible working arrangements;


• A thriving, established client base with excellent corporate work;


• A long-term, stable platform for future growth.

For senior lawyers seeking a meaningful, leadership-level role in a values-driven commercial practice—without the usual barriers—this represents an outstanding opportunity.
