Job description

Who we are

Spencer West is a leading full-service international law firm, built around a values‑led and modern approach to legal practice. We advise businesses and individuals across jurisdictions, combining technical excellence with commercial insight and a genuinely collaborative culture. Our core values of collaboration, entrepreneurship and excellence underpin everything we do. We are proud to be globally connected and locally invested. Our international community of 360+ partners, in more than 25 jurisdictions works seamlessly across borders while remaining culturally aware and actively engaged in the local communities in which we operate. With an international presence and a global outlook, Spencer West delivers comprehensive legal advice without the constraints of the traditional law firm model.

The opportunity

Spencer West is growing, and we are keen to welcome more high‑calibre lawyers into our collaborative international practice. Whether you are an established sole practitioner or leading an existing team, Spencer West sets you up for success with a supportive firm infrastructure, covering practice management, support with accounts and marketing, and office facilities across our international network.

  • Run and grow your own practice within a supportive international firm
  • Work in a modern, flexible way, with autonomy over where, when and how you work
  • Benefit from a strong referral culture and cross‑border collaboration
  • Be rewarded transparently for the work you do and the business you generate
  • Manchester-based or North West

Who we look for

We are interested in speaking with senior lawyers who share our values and want to practise law differently.

Legal expertise

You will be a recognised expert in your field, typically with a minimum of 8 years’ post‑qualification experience. Partners come from leading City, national and international firms, senior in‑house roles, and established boutique or independent practices. Spencer West is consistently recognised in Chambers & Partners and The Legal 500, reflecting the firm’s depth of expertise and commitment to excellence.

Entrepreneurial mindset

You will have the ambition and growth mindset to run your own practice. This may be as an individual practitioner or with a view to building and growing a team.

Client‑centric

You will have an established or developing client following and a commitment to building long‑term client relationships and growing your practice.

Collaborative approach

You value working alongside like‑minded colleagues, sharing opportunities and contributing to a supportive international community.

Essential Requirements

  • An active practising certificate/ license to practice law with no restrictions
  • Willingness to operate on a self‑employed basis (as a sole trader or via a limited company – your choice)

Our recruitment process

Our process is designed to be straightforward, professional and efficient.

  • Step 1: Introductory video call with a member of the Talent Acquisition team.
  • Step 2: First meeting* with a member of the senior management team in the relevant jurisdiction.
  • Step 3: Second meeting* with another member of the management team or with a colleague from a relevant location or practice area.
  • Step 4: Background checks are conducted.
  • Step 5: Onboarding & training on our systems and meeting various members of our support team (including marketing, accounts and technology).

(*Meetings may be held virtually or in person, depending on candidate location & availability)

If you are looking for a firm that allows you to practise at the highest level, grow your business, and work on your own terms, we would love to hear from you.
