The Role

We have an excellent opportunity for a lawyer with 3 to 5 years' experience post admission to join our well-established Commercial and Corporate team. You will be mentored by a team of lawyers with a broad range of industry experience who undertake a diverse range of work.

Our clients are highly regarded companies and groups including family offices, boutique funds, software companies, national e-commerce platforms, global brands and transport and logistics companies.

An interest in business development and marketing would be an asset and would be fostered if initiative is shown in this area.

As a member of the Commercial and Corporate team, you will be rewarded with a competitive salary and opportunity for career growth. The work culture is friendly and supportive and we offer a hybrid working arrangement – with 4 days in the office and a day WFH if desired.
