Description

Fantastic opportunity for an experienced Corporate Senior Associate or Legal Director to join this boutique law firm that acts as the legal arm of a wider group of companies, and one of the most active deal makers in the market.

You will, in essence, be acting as an In-House Corporate Solicitor / Legal Director, working on behalf of the group of companies, and dealing with transactional corporate work, including mergers, acquisitions, capital markets and private equity matters.

You will ideally be a 6+ PQE Corporate Solicitor with experience at a regional or national Legal 500 practice. The key aspect of this role is the ability to deal with your own caseload, so experience of dealing with transactions from start to finish is key, whilst supervising junior solicitors & paralegals will be essential.

The majority of transactions that they deal with are in the £3million > £15million bracket, with some larger-scale matters ranging up to £50million. Due to the structure of the organisation, no business development is needed, and there is plenty of work available, as work is available in droves from the group of compamines.

The office is based in central Manchester, with hybrid working available, plus the scope to develop and progress your career quickly, as this boutique practice has ambitious growth plans.
