M&A Corporate Solicitor

Salary: £40k to £60k depending on experience

Rubric Law, a fully remote law firm, is seeking a full-time, permanent Corporate Solicitor.

Overview

Rubric Law is a dynamic boutique law firm that has spent the time required to handpick and nurture its team. This attention to detail has enabled the firm to build a unique set of values by which the entire firm operates. The service delivered is comparable in quality and sophistication to the top 200 firms, but it benefits from a more personal touch.

We are now seeking an ambitious and commercially minded corporate solicitor to facilitate continued growth during 2025.

The role

You will be instrumental in assisting in the continued development and expansion of the corporate department. The role consists of a broad existing caseload including share and asset disposals and acquisitions, shareholder agreements, commercial contracts, partnership and limited liability partnership agreements, and bank funding. You will need to be focused on building relationships with clients and introducers and be able to consistently deliver outstanding and straightforward advice to clients. We are offering an above-market salary, excellent holiday entitlement, and private medical cover which offers a range of additional benefits.

How you will make a difference?

Your role will revolve around forging strong relationships with clients and initiators and providing them with clear, outstanding advice. Our exceptional communication charter sets us apart – excellence in communication is vital.

What will be expected of you?

You will be required to live the values of Rubric. You will be happy to work autonomously but within the framework of the firm. You will be an excellent communicator both with clients and your colleagues.

Who you will be working with?

As a boutique commercial firm (8 headcount), you will have direct access to all members of the team, including the Managing Director, delivering a superior client service, identifying opportunities, and building relationships. You will report to the Head of the Department.

What is it like to work here?

We're an energetic group who are closely connected. There is a flat management structure with the Managing Director actively involved in the development of the team. The work is serious and there is a high output required, but the environment is supportive, fun, and enjoyable.

We operate four practice areas (Real Estate, Corporate, Commercial, and Employment) and have acquired a specialist reputation. This, however, is not the end, and the firm wants to grow and develop each area of the business into new markets and geographical areas.

What will you be like?

• You will have a minimum of 2 years’ experience within corporate law.
• You will be entrepreneurial and confident in your ability to help the department grow.
• You will be professional, personable, and approachable.
• You will be highly articulate both verbally and in writing.
• You will enjoy being part of a dynamic team but be comfortable working autonomously.
• You will be comfortable with a varied caseload in all areas of corporate law.
• You will want to work for an employer that appreciates the level of commitment and work that you put in.
• Our values will resonate and inspire you.
• Employment law experience would be an added advantage.
