Our Client: We are working on behalf of a leading national law firm that is renowned for its top-tier Corporate team. Our client is seeking a driven and talented Corporate Solicitor with 3-5 years of post-qualification experience (PQE) to join its highly respected Corporate department. This is a fantastic opportunity for a solicitor seeking to work on high-value, complex M&A transactions, reorganisations, and private equity (PE) work, with a focus on high-profile and cross-border matters.

* Strong client management and relationship-building skills.
* Ability to achieve 1500 billable hours per year.
* Based locally in the Birmingham area or willing to relocate.
* Looking for a long-term career in Birmingham and not seeking to move to London in the near future.

* Exceptional training and development opportunities.
* High level of responsibility, including client contact and leading transactions.
* Fantastic work-life balance and competitive salary.
* Clear career progression within a firm that values long-term growth and stability.
