  • Provide commercial, risk-aware legal advice to clients on corporate governance and regulatory matters.
  • Build and maintain strong client relationships and contribute to business development initiatives where appropriate.
  • Mentor junior lawyers and support team development activities.

Candidate Profile

  • Qualified solicitor with minimum 4 years’ PQE in corporate law, ideally with strong experience in M&A and corporate transactions.
  • Demonstrated capability to manage full transactional life cycles with autonomy.
  • Excellent drafting, negotiation and commercial advisory skills.
  • Strong client-facing skills with a commercial mindset and ability to work collaboratively across teams.
  • Ability to prioritise work under pressure, meet deadlines and handle a varied workload.

Benefits and Compensation

  • Competitive salary package.
  • Annual bonus scheme linked to performance objectives.
  • Generous annual leave allowance with options to buy/sell additional days.
