Job description

Insolvency & Restructuring Partner – London

The Role

Our client is a long-established UK commercial law firm recruiting an Insolvency & Restructuring Partner to lead and develop its insolvency offering. The firm sits within a global network and has expanded strategically in recent years through both acquisition and organic growth, including the addition of a specialist real estate and construction practice. Core strengths include Banking & Finance, Commercial & Corporate, Real Estate Corporate, and Real Estate Investment & Finance.

Following the retirement of the former Head of Insolvency, this role offers the opportunity to take ownership of the practice with full strategic backing. A strong senior associate and mid-level associate remain in post, ensuring continuity of client relationships. The firm is fully committed to investing in Insolvency & Restructuring as a core part of its long-term strategy.

The Insolvency & Restructuring Group advises on UK and international corporate and personal insolvency, working closely with insolvency practitioners, directors, individuals, finance directors, and credit controllers. The practice covers the full lifecycle of distressed situations, from early-stage restructuring and rescue through to formal insolvency and enforcement.

The Candidate

  • Experienced Insolvency & Restructuring Partner with a strong track record across corporate and personal insolvency
  • Comfortable advising on both contentious and non-contentious insolvency matters
  • Established client relationships and referral networks, or the ability to develop them
  • Proven ability to lead, mentor, and develop junior lawyers
  • Commercially minded, collaborative, and entrepreneurial in approach
  • Experience working within a multi-disciplinary, full-service environment preferred

Why This Opportunity

  • Join a long-established, highly regarded commercial law firm with clear strategic ambition
  • Opportunity to lead and rebuild an Insolvency & Restructuring practice with genuine investment and support
  • Existing team in place, providing immediate delivery capability
  • Strong internal referral flow from Banking, Corporate, Real Estate, and Disputes
  • Autonomy, influence, and the ability to shape a practice without short-term pressure

Benefits & How to Apply

  • Partner target set at 2.5x salary, with 12.5% payable on all billed and paid work above target (whether personally generated or referred)
  • Flexible working arrangements
  • Clear, transparent remuneration structure
  • Opportunity to play a pivotal role in the firm’s long-term strategy

Apply in the strictest of confidence online or via telephone – there is no need for a CV for an initial conversation.
