We are looking for an experienced candidate with three to six years PQE (although pre-qualification experience will be considered) and a with a proven track record of running their own case load.
The candidate will ideally have experience in both corporate and commercial work with a keen interest to develop their commercial skills and practice. This is a huge opportunity for the right candidate to shape the future of the firm’s commercial offering.
Some knowledge and practical experience of employment law, in respect of preparing contracts and director’s service agreements, as well as in relation to the TUPE Regulations would be advantageous but is not essential.
The candidate will ideally be able to demonstrate that they have worked with clients on a broad range of commercial matters, to include (but in no way limited to) contracts, tender processes, franchise agreements, distribution agreements and e-commerce.
The candidate must also be able to demonstrate that they have excellent communication and interpersonal skills as the roll will very much be client facing, helping the firm to deliver against its Service Pledge. Enthusiasm and positive energy in abundance is a must!
The candidate should be passionate about business development and will be expected to form part of the team (and the firm’s wider) marketing initiatives and will have the opportunity to shape the future of the team’s marketing and business development strategy.
Whilst supervision and mentoring will be provided, the candidate must be proficient in working independently and in handling their own varied case load.
The candidate will need to apportion their time effectively between fee-earning, marketing and business development, alongside supervising more junior members of the department from time to time.
