Leading VC Law Firm West End 7+PQE My client is looking for an incredibly diligent Senior Corporate Commercial Litigation solicitor with at least 7+ years PQE with experience in corporate litigation law, with excellent academics (ideally 2:1). You will be joining a firm that is highly regarded and has a well-established reputation along with broad experience across the entire sector. The team acts for a wide range of businesses, including large established companies, professional and creative partnerships, and entrepreneurs and start-ups involved in a variety of sectors. They have particular expertise in technology start-ups and Venture Capital, but previous experience in those areas is not essential. The ideal candidate has to be used to working - and thinking - independently. You enjoy working as a team with colleagues and clients alike. You will be happy taking on new instructions, working independently and helping to "shape" the course and structure of a matter, rather than always working from a pre-agreed term sheet. You will need to be actively engaged in business development, and keen to help us attract new clients and grow the team. The role offers a generous bonus structure with a positive outlook on flexible working. This is, of course, only one opportunity I am working on, I would be happy to detail both this as well as others over a brief, initial chat. I am presently working on roles for Family Solicitors, Private Client Solicitor and some Residential roles. If you would like to learn more about this role or any other opportunities, please let me know.

Full time
Leading VC Law Firm West End 7+PQE My client is looking for an incredibly diligent Senior Corporate Commercial Litigation solicitor with at least 7+ years PQE with experience in corporate litigation law, with excellent academics (ideally 2:1). You will be joining a firm that is highly regarded and has a well-established reputation along with broad experience across the entire sector. The team acts for a wide range of businesses, including large established companies, professional and creative partnerships, and entrepreneurs and start-ups involved in a variety of sectors. They have particular expertise in technology start-ups and Venture Capital, but previous experience in those areas is not essential. The ideal candidate has to be used to working - and thinking - independently. You enjoy working as a team with colleagues and clients alike. You will be happy taking on new instructions, working independently and helping to "shape" the course and structure of a matter, rather than always working from a pre-agreed term sheet. You will need to be actively engaged in business development, and keen to help us attract new clients and grow the team. The role offers a generous bonus structure with a positive outlook on flexible working. This is, of course, only one opportunity I am working on, I would be happy to detail both this as well as others over a brief, initial chat.
