Job description

Legal Director OR Partner – London

We are advising a range of leading Global, Top 50 UK National & Chambers Ranked firms on senior Lawyer recruitment; as they look to grow through the acquisition of Legal Directors (LD) & Partners.

Over the years we have supported many Senior/ Managing/ Principal Associates & LDs in securing the next steps in their careers; into a LD role with Partner track, or directly into a Partner position – alongside headline lateral Partner moves, into some of the most progressive practices in the UK.

Whilst most firms are looking to further strengthen their core practice groups – some are now seeking Partners to further diversify their offering, and set up new practice areas for the firm, so team moves are available also.

We have a proven track record in delivering on new group set up; in recent years, developing teams to L500 recognition in 12 months, and a headcount of 5x in under 18 months.

Recent Partner Moves include;

Private Client Partner – Top 50 UK Firm; Employment Partner – Global Firm; Banking & Finance Legal Director – Global Firm; Commercial Litigation Legal Director – Top 50 UK Firm; 2x Corporate Legal Directors - Global Firms & More.

We have active LD/ Partner instructions across;

• Real Estate
• Construction
• Disputes
• Corporate
• Employment
• Data/ Privacy
• Commercial / IP
• Private Wealth
• Family
• & more.

If you are at 8PQE (or above), and not receiving sufficient progression, investment or development; with firm focus on LD/ Partner acquisition – now is an excellent time to be assessing your options and what the market has to offer.

We can advise you on the opportunities that best fit your specifications of search; and update you on firm requirements and trajectory.

All calls are confidential, and no CV needed – we have direct instructions from Managing Partners, so can provide full details of remuneration (Salary, Fixed Share, Equity), Partner structure, and Growth plans; prior to even considering any process.
