The role demands the ability to provide clear, commercial advice, excellent client care skills, and a proven ability to foster strong client relationships. Exceptional organisational, written and IT skills are essential.

We are ideally looking for a Corporate and Commercial Solicitor with 2-5 years PQE, although applications from newly qualified solicitors with experience in corporate or corporate & commercial law (gained through their training contract) will also be considered.

Benefits:

• Hybrid working options
• Free onsite parking
