A very unique opportunity for an ambitious solicitor to develop at pace within a close-knit collaborative and focused specialist team.

One of the regions newer firm's with a particular focus on corporate and commercial transactions. Even within its relative short history to date they have seen significant growth year on year, with a tripling of the turnover in last year alone, with a move into brand new offices due shortly. They are now in the position of requiring a good quality junior solicitor who is career focused, with an entrepreneurial spirit who is keen to make progress with their career outside the restraints and hierarchical hurdles of perhaps more established firms.

This really is a genuine opportunity to develop your professional standing in a very inclusive working environment free of office politics with a relaxed yet focused working culture. The firm make great use of networks and digital technology such is the extent of their reach that they have an abundance of enquiries generated through their own online presence and reputation of the firm's leadership as well as repeat business and referrals from existing clients.

Their clients include leading technology start-ups, celebrities, media companies and entrepreneurs across a range of industry sectors. Their reach extends beyond regional with a great deal of work based in and around London more often than not with an international scope to the work with many clients being based internationally with their interest laying in the UK business market.

You will find the role incredibly varied and see yourself challenged often but will be supported on your development path. You should expect to be dealing with M&A, Joint Ventures and Shareholder agreements, Private Equity and Venture Capital, finance and restructuring matters, commercial agreements including Terms & Conditions as well as matters concerning Intellectual Property and many other interesting projects that you would expect from a firm with a true entrepreneurial spirit.

As an individual you will have gained a solid grounding in corporate and commercial matters and be confident in your learning and experience to date. You should consider yourself to be a very competent individual with excellent communications skills and confidence in engaging with clients in a professional manner with an ability to understand the client needs and formulate solutions in an eloquent and succinct manner. The role would suit an individual with a great deal of initiative who is comfortable working independently when it is appropriate to do so but also welcoming of supervision and support when it is felt to be of benefit by the Senior Solicitor.

The firm will shortly be moving into new modern offices close to the M23 with Brighton and Gatwick within easy reach by private or public transport and quick access to the London / Brighton train routes. The firm are interested to hear from people who really are keen to be part of a growing firm which has clear as well as very achievable goals. This will require commitment and flexibility but with obvious rewards of being part of a small group of talented individuals all of who are genuinely invested into a common goal. As you will already have experienced the corporate and commercial sector generally demands a great deal of the individual, this will be no different but the opportunity to develop at a significantly faster rate and become a highly prized asset and much respected individual both personally and professionally with this firm is somewhat of a rarity. If you feel your current role does not allow such opportunities for you to realise your ambitions this could be a very interesting option for you.
