You’ll also be responsible for leading and managing more junior lawyers in the team, and have the opportunity to work alongside a motivated team of talented lawyers with a range of specialties and experience. Great opportunities for career development
This role would be suitable for candidates looking to come out of a mid-level private practice role and/or or candidates with previous in-house experience at a large corporate employer. Experience working on M&A transactions, either in private practice or in-house, is preferred.
