Job Description

Corporate Solicitor 3-7 PQE

• Term: Permanent
• Salary: £40,000 - £65,000 (enough to fund that dream holiday or finally buy the fancy coffee machine)
• Hours: Full-time (35 hours per week, Monday-Friday no weekends unless your emails get spicy)
• Department: Corporate & Commercial

The Firm (aka Your Future HQ)
This law firm has all the perks of a big player high-profile clients, complex transactions, and expert teams without the soul-crushing intensity. With a reputation for delivering top-tier results and cultivating a friendly, collaborative culture, this is a workplace where hard work meets good vibes. Think City-level deals, but with the charm of a firm that knows your name, your goals, and maybe even your coffee order.

The Team
The Corporate & Commercial team advises an eclectic mix of clients from start-ups and ambitious scale-ups to well-oiled SMEs and global heavyweights. These legal wizards have seen it all: M&A, private equity, joint ventures, and shareholder agreements, all the way to demergers, flotations, and financing wizardry. It's a melting pot of talent, with many members bringing their expertise from large City firms, but without the corporate grimace. Expect camaraderie, knowledge-sharing, and the odd laugh along the way.

The Role (Time to Shine)
If you're a corporate solicitor with 3-7 years PQE and a knack for navigating the complexities of company law, private equity, M&A, and more, this could be your moment. The role will see you:

• Advising on private company M&A, management buyouts (MBOs), and buy-ins (MBIs).
• Drafting joint venture agreements, shareholders agreements, and constitutional documents (because who doesn't love a good article of association?).
• Getting involved in AIM flotations, takeovers, and public company work (yes, you'll sound fancy at dinner parties).
• Handling corporate reorganisations, reconstructions, and demergers like the seasoned pro you are.
• Supporting on commercial lending, financing, and refinancing of businesses.

You'll work alongside a talented team on large-scale transactions while having the autonomy to lead on others. This is your chance to make an impact, shine, and become part of a team that genuinely enjoys what they do.

Who They're Looking For (Besides Someone Who Gets Their Jokes)

• A qualified solicitor with 3-7 years of post-qualification experience in a corporate team.
• A solid academic background (a 2:1 degree or higher preferred, but we wont quiz you on your dissertation).
• Confident in handling the full range of corporate processes.
• Ambitious, adaptable, and ready to hit the ground running.

Why Apply?
This role is perfect for someone ready to step up to larger, more complex transactions in a supportive yet high-performing team. Whether you're looking to relocate, escape the grind of your current firm, or simply want to work on exciting deals without sacrificing your sanity, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
