The Firm
This highly regarded commercial law firm has built a strong reputation for delivering practical, strategic advice to businesses, insolvency practitioners and private clients. Known for its collaborative culture and high-quality work, the firm attracts sophisticated clients and ambitious lawyers who want hands-on experience, strong mentorship and genuine career progression.
The Timing
This role has been created to support a newly appointed Partner and offers a rare opportunity to join at the beginning of that journey. As the Partner's second-in-command, you'll play an important role in servicing existing clients, supporting business growth and helping establish the foundations of the team. It is the kind of opportunity that offers visibility, responsibility and progression that can be difficult to find in larger, more established teams.
The Work Itself
The work spans general commercial disputes and insolvency, with matters ranging from contractual disputes, recovery actions and professional negligence claims through to property and leasing disputes, corporate fraud and asset recovery. You'll work closely with clients, contribute to litigation strategy, prepare key court documents and gain increasing exposure to advocacy and court appearances. The breadth of the practice means no two matters look quite the same.
Where You'll Land
You’ll work directly alongside a Partner known for developing talented lawyers and building enduring client relationships. The team is collaborative and supportive, offering hands-on mentoring, meaningful responsibility and direct client exposure from day one. Combined with flexible working, 26 weeks paid parental leave, structured professional development and a genuine focus on wellbeing, it’s a culture designed for long-term success.
Sound Like You?
You are a litigation lawyer with approximately 4-6 years’ PAE and experience in commercial disputes, insolvency, or both. You have strong drafting skills, excellent attention to detail and enjoy the pace and variety that litigation brings. Most importantly, you’re looking for the opportunity to step up, take ownership and grow alongside a Partner who is invested in your success.
