Exciting Corporate Restructuring Partner Opportunity with well-known French Law Firm
Located in the heart of the city of Paris, an opportunity has arisen to support the wider work of this Paris law firm, famed particularly for its core strength in project development and energy, for a corporate restructuring lawyer to join the firm as Partner.

About the Firm:
This firm is mostly focussed on legal matters relating to the projects, infrastructure and energy sector, and is consistently ranked in Legal 500 for its first-class handling of legal matters thereto. The firm has a modest full-service set-up, including catering to the corporate, insurance, finance and public law sectors, in addition to its main staple of energy projects work. For the last 20 years, the firm has been a first choice for players in the energy and infrastructure industry.

The atmosphere of the firm is both collegiate and professional, whilst being a comfortable place to work in terms of revenue expectations as compared to some of its more demanding peers. Whilst the firm boasts a very nice office in Paris it is quite common for lawyers to work on a more hybrid basis, as mutually suiting the staff and the servicing needs of their clientele.

The firm is composed of 7 partners and 30 lawyers and is keen to expand its partnership numbers, partly as a natural progression as with any law firm and also due to the increasing needs of the firm's clientele. The firm is by no means top-heavy therefore, so continuous promotion and career opportunities are realistic.

The Opportunity:
The firm are interested in appointing someone to join as Partner to manage the corporate restructuring matters of the firm. This will be an autonomous opportunity for the right candidate and in time will provide more managerial opportunities as the team grows. Such growth is a fundamental ambition of the team as its work-load increases, so this is more than just a good opportunity for partnership but also a great opportunity to play a part in the future expansion of what is already a well-regarded energy market player. You will:

  • Manage complex restructuring matters on behalf of clients such as multinational corporations, and energy players;
  • Be able to provide sound restructuring advice across the full spectrum of restructuring issues; and
  • Help grow the team and clientele, in line with the firm's wider ambitions for growth.
  • The Candidate:
    Alongside servicing their own portable clientele, the successful candidate will also be servicing the restructuring needs of the firm's existing clients. International experience of restructuring transactions is important as many of the firm's clients are internationally based. Any restructuring experience in deals or projects in the energy space would be useful, but not a prerequisite.

    The role would suit a Counsel-level restructuring lawyer with their own clientele looking for their break into an immediate partnership opening, or for an existing Restructuring Partner looking for a whole new experience growing the firm's restructuring offering and contributing to the ultimate growth ambitions of the firm. A cohesive, yet entrepreneurial spirit, career progression and competitive remuneration are guaranteed.

    If this sounds like your profile, please do get in touch.
