Commercial Solicitor (4+ Years' PQE)

An excellent opportunity has arisen for an ambitious Commercial Solicitor with 4+ years' PQE to join a respected and growing law firm. This is a rare chance to progress your career and play a key role in developing a practice within a hugely supportive environment.

The firm is looking for a solicitor with strong experience in a broad range of commercial contracts, intellectual property, and data protection work. The role sits within the Commercial team but involves close collaboration with the wider Business Services team, particularly in business development initiatives.

This position would suit a solicitor who is keen to take the next step in their career with clear prospects for rapid progression and potential future partnership. The firm is flexible and open to accommodating specialisms or areas of expertise the successful candidate brings or wishes to develop further.

The ideal candidate will:

• Be capable of acting independently on a variety of matters without extensive supervision, while also being comfortable seeking support when required.
• Have a collaborative mindset, engaging in peer-to-peer discussions on complex issues and contributing to the mentoring and development of junior colleagues.
• Be commercially astute, with the ability to provide practical, real-world solutions that balance legal precision with client-focused pragmatism.

The firm's clients span multiple sectors, with particular strengths in the technology and automotive industries, and range from international corporations to owner-managed businesses and start-ups. Adaptability and excellent communication skills are essential, as is the ability to tailor advice and approach to meet each client's unique needs.

In addition to technical excellence, the successful candidate will play an active role in marketing and business development. Opportunities include presenting webinars and seminars, attending networking events, writing articles, building LinkedIn engagement, and nurturing both client and internal firm relationships.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a driven commercial solicitor looking to build their profile within a forward-thinking firm offering genuine career advancement.
