Are you a seasoned Corporate Solicitor seeking a more balanced and fulfilling role? This opportunity offers just that—combining high-quality corporate transactions with strategic, non-transactional project work in a truly unique setting.
Why This Role Stands Out
You'll still be involved in complex UK and international corporate deals, but with a significant portion of your time dedicated to high-level consultancy projects that extend beyond traditional legal work.
Working closely with a multidisciplinary team, you'll use your legal expertise to tackle business challenges for leading blue-chip clients—without the relentless time pressure of pure transactional roles.
This hybrid model offers both stimulation and sustainability.
About the Company
You'll be joining a globally respected professional services brand, known for delivering fully integrated, cross-disciplinary solutions.
Their legal division is growing fast, offering a rare chance to shape its future while working in a collaborative, forward-thinking environment—one that moves away from the rigid structure of many conventional law firms.
The Role
As a Corporate Solicitor, you will provide strategic legal counsel on a range of UK and cross-border matters.
You'll lead multi-jurisdictional transactions, advise major clients across sectors, and contribute to expanding the firm's corporate legal offering.
Around 50% of your workload will involve innovative project-based consultancy work—giving you space to breathe and grow.
Key Responsibilities
Advise on M&A, joint ventures, equity investments, corporate structuring, and reorganisations
Lead complex, cross-border transactions from start to finish
Collaborate across internal departments to deliver integrated client solutions
Support business development initiatives by leveraging the firm's strong internal market
Mentor and develop junior team members
Manage and build long-term relationships with high-profile clients
About You
UK-qualified solicitor with 6+ years PQE in corporate law
Strong background in M&A, equity investments, and restructurings
Proven ability to handle high-value, multi-jurisdictional matters
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
Entrepreneurial spirit and a proactive, solutions-focused approach
Experience mentoring junior lawyers is a plus
What's on Offer
£75,000-£90,000 base salary plus significant benefits including a clear and achievable bonus structure
Flexible hybrid working
Realistic, well-supported career progression
The chance to escape the "always-on" corporate grind
Opportunity to do varied, strategic work beyond deals
Inclusive, innovative, and supportive culture
