Description
Senior Conflicts Lawyer - US experience needed
London – Hybrid
I’m working with a fabulous leading international law firm looking to hire a Senior Conflicts Lawyer / Advisor into their global Risk & Compliance function as they continue to expand globally.
This is not a “box-ticking” conflicts role. It sits at the heart of business decision-making, balancing risk, regulation, and commercial strategy at a senior level.
The Role?
- Leading complex conflicts assessments across clients, matters, and lateral hires
- Advising partners on risk vs commercial opportunity (not just saying “no”)
- Designing and implementing conflicts mitigation strategies (barriers, consents, structuring)
- Acting as a senior escalation point for sensitive, high-stakes issues
- Supporting global projects, policy development, and system improvements
- Delivering practical, commercial training to lawyers and stakeholders
- Mentoring junior team members and shaping team capability
About you?
- Qualified Solicitor (England & Wales) or equivalent
- Strong experience in conflicts/risk / compliance within a law firm
- Deep understanding of SRA rules & conflicts frameworks
- Commercial mindset — able to enable business, not block it
- Confidence to challenge and influence senior stakeholders
- Experience with systems like Intapp / Elite is a plus
What's in it for you?
- True business-facing position (not back-office compliance)
- High visibility with partners and leadership
- Exposure to international, cross-border matters
- Involvement in AI and data-driven risk initiatives
- Clear pathway for career progression and leadership
