Job description

Job DescriptionConsultant Solicitor – Elite Platform | Autonomy Meets Infrastructure

Location: Nationwide – Remote first, with London & regional office access

PQE: 6+ years

Structure: Up to 75% of billings retained

Practice Areas: Full-service – interest in Corporate, Commercial, Litigation, Private Client, Real Estate, Employment, Immigration, Family, and more

Build your own practice. On your own terms. With the full weight of a Top 100 firm behind you.

We're partnering with two of the UK’s most prestigious consultancy-led law firms — both pioneers in the platform model, and widely regarded as leaders in their field. They’ve redefined what it means to be a modern law firm: empowering experienced lawyers to take ownership of their work, earnings, and lifestyle, while offering world-class support and collaboration.

This is where high-calibre professionals go to do their best work — without compromise.

What Makes This Model Stand Out?

• Market-leading share: Keep up to 75% of your billings
• Zero billing targets, no hierarchy, and no internal politics
• Full-service infrastructure:
• Award-winning IT & document systems
• Marketing & BD support
• Secretarial, paralegal & compliance teams
• Professional Indemnity cover (£60m)
• Internal referral network that generates 30–40% of total revenue
• Offices & meeting space in London and major UK cities
• A collegiate, inclusive culture designed to help lawyers thrive
• Option to build your own pod/team under your brand within the firm

Who Thrives Here?

This opportunity suits:

• Senior Associates or Partners seeking freedom with structure
• Lawyers from Magic Circle, Silver Circle or respected regional firms
• In-house counsel looking to return to practice with flexibility
• Consultants with a client following — or a plan to build one
• Ambitious professionals who value quality, autonomy, and culture

There’s no rigid PQE threshold — if you’re 6 years+ qualified and can demonstrate strong experience, commercial acumen, and a clear plan for growth, you’ll be taken seriously.

A client following is an advantage, but not essential. What matters most is ambition, emotional intelligence, and strategic intent.
