Description

Tremendous opportunity for a Banking Partner to greatly impact the Manchester office of this global practice and to lead the Banking practice in Manchester. A team move will also be considered, due to the ambitious expansion plans of this practice.

This firm is highly regarded on a global scale and seen as an excellent full-service commercial law firm across the UK, with an established Manchester presence for over 50 years.

The Banking & Finance team consists of 20 people across the UK, and their expertise spans both the public and private sectors. There is a genuine mix of quality work on offer, and the team deals with a broad mix of banking & finance that includes: debt capital markets, Islamic finance, real estate finance, development finance, acquisition finance, securitisation and more.

You will take a lead role in the Manchester office and be at the helm of the banking team, particularly focusing on lender-based work. This is a key appointment in the Manchester office, so you will have direct communication with senior management, as well as working closely with the Global Head of Banking.

Immediate Partnership (salaried or fixed share equity) is on the table, but there is a clear pathway and scope for equity. The firm is huge on culture, training and quality of work, and this is a golden opportunity for an existing partner to join a practice looking to make an impact in Manchester.

Opportunity to tailor your benefits package plus a pension, bonus scheme and healthcare. Tremendous salary on offer that will range up to £200,000 per annum.
