Corporate Lawyer 3+ PQE
London
£Market Leading Salary
My client is one of the world's largest law firms with nearly 8000 people in 64 offices and 25 countries across the world and global turnover exceeding £1 billion. Their vision is to be the leading global business law firm, a vision which is underpinned by a set of core values which invest in their people, their clients and their community. At this firm excellence and going that extra mile is the norm.
They are interested in recruiting additional Assistant and Associate level recruits. The quality and quantity of work being generated by the corporate team has been improving rapidly and their need to recruit talented lawyers to accommodate such growth is a top firm priority.
Successful candidates will be encouraged to undertake a broad range of work covering private equity,
corporate finance and M&A. They seek individuals with strong academics from leading City practices who
have top quality corporate finance/public and private M&A/private equity experience. A keenness to be
involved on business development initiatives on behalf of the group is also required as all team members are
encouraged to be involved in marketing from an early stage in their careers. Good communication skills are
essential as all fee earners will be expected to help manage relationships with existing and prospective
clients alike.
They are specifically interested in corporate solicitors (ideally UK qualified/experience) with around 3 or
more years relevant experience in the following:
· solicitors with experience of in any of the core corporate areas;
· solicitors with a mix of the above expertise, however they are very open to considering and
accommodating candidates who have specialised more in one particular area;
· solicitors or associates in all areas of corporate expertise, whether specialised or not. I should
stress that they are happy to consider top quality associates who may have narrowly missed
partnership and therefore made the decision to make a move to a firm where they can enjoy better
career prospects.
My client is also open to considering overseas qualified candidates with experience in common law and relevant skills as detailed above.
