Corporate Commercial Associate Solicitor - London

An internationally recognised law firm is now seeking an outstanding Corporate and Commercial Associate to join their renowned team in London to assist on a variety of corporate transactional and commercial matters.

The Firm

This internationally recognised London-based firm has a long history of acting for prominent, high net worth individuals, and for entrepreneurs. Although the firm now has 11 practice areas, and acts for many corporates and large institutions, there is still a strong focus on acting for individuals, in relation to their personal and business interests.

The Team

Although it is one of the smaller practice areas in the firm, the Corporate and Commercial department has grown at a steady rate for the last 5 years and has built a particular reputation and profile for its work in acting on investment deals for founders, angel investors and for VCs. In addition, the department deals with real-estate finance work and banking (working in conjunction with the Real Estate team at the firm), a mix of corporate and commercial work, and has a particular specialism in technology work (in terms of corporate transactions, but also commercial/contractual work). The department is known in the firm for the high quality of its lawyers, its lack of hierarchy and the closeness of the team.

The corporate team also works closely with other growing departments of the firm – in particular, Real Estate, Private Client, Immigration, Employment, and Dispute Resolution. Experience and a desire to play a key role in nurturing cross-departmental relationships are a must.

The Opportunity

The team is now eager to expand and recruit a Corporate and Commercial Associate to assist on a variety of corporate transactional and commercial matters.

Responsibilities will include assisting with large-scale corporate transactions and running own smaller-scale transactions.

The Candidate

They would expect the successful candidate to have had at least 2 years post qualification experience in a Corporate/Commercial department of a law firm and at least 6 months as part of their training contract or be able to demonstrate the equivalent level of skills and desired competencies within a similar law practice.
