Job description

Corporate Commercial Solicitor, 4+ PQE, York

An opportunity to join a successful Corporate & Commercial team in York, handling a varied caseload of quality work and helping shape the development of the wider team.

The firm is looking for an experienced solicitor who can hit the ground running, take responsibility for their own matters and build strong relationships with a diverse client base.

What will you be doing?

You’ll advise on a broad range of corporate and commercial matters, including:

• Mergers and acquisitions.
• Corporate restructuring and partnerships.
• Commercial agreements and contracts.
• Intellectual property.
• Corporate governance.
• Regulatory and statutory compliance.

Alongside managing your own caseload, you’ll have the opportunity to mentor junior colleagues and contribute to the continued growth of the team.

Could this be for you?

You’ll be a qualified Solicitor with 4+ years’ PQE and a solid background in corporate and commercial law. Just as important will be your ability to communicate effectively with clients, provide commercially focused advice and identify opportunities to develop existing and new relationships.

Some experience of business development and marketing would also be beneficial, as would an interest in supporting and developing those around you.

Why make the move?

The firm offers a professional but friendly working environment, with a genuinely supportive team culture. You’ll have the opportunity to work on high-quality matters, develop your own client relationships and enjoy a . . . role where work-life balance is recognised as important.
