My client is continuing to invest in the growth of its highly regarded Corporate team and is keen to speak with talented lawyers from experienced Associate through to Senior Associate, Legal Director and Partner level.

This is an opportunity to join one of Northern Ireland’s leading independent law firms, advising an impressive portfolio of entrepreneurs, owner-managed businesses, SMEs, investors and established corporates on a broad range of high-quality corporate transactions.

The Role

Working alongside an experienced and highly respected team, you’ll advise on a varied mix of matters including:

  • Company sales and acquisitions

  • Management buyouts and buy-ins

  • Corporate restructures and reorganisations

  • Shareholder and investment agreements

  • Joint ventures

  • General corporate and commercial advisory work

The role offers plenty of client contact and the opportunity to take ownership of transactions from instruction through to completion. More senior candidates will also have the opportunity to play an active role in mentoring junior lawyers, developing client relationships and contributing to the continued growth of the department.

Applications are welcomed from solicitors who:

  • Have strong corporate law experience gained within a commercial practice.

  • Enjoy building lasting relationships with clients and colleagues.

  • Can manage transactions confidently with a commercial and pragmatic approach.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

Joining my client means becoming part of a firm that has successfully combined ambitious growth with a genuinely supportive and collaborative culture. Having experienced sustained expansion in recent years, the firm continues to invest in its people, broaden its service offering and strengthen its presence across the Northern Ireland legal market.

People are at the heart of the firm’s success. It has introduced dedicated wellbeing initiatives to support employees both professionally and personally, alongside a long-term commitment to corporate social responsibility, encouraging colleagues to get involved in charitable, community and environmental projects. The result is a workplace where collaboration, development and work/life balance are genuinely valued rather than simply talked about.

The firm is also consistently recognised by leading legal directories for the quality of its lawyers and the service it provides to clients, reflecting its reputation as one of the region’s most respected independent practices.

Whether you’re an ambitious Associate looking to take the next step or an established senior lawyer seeking a platform where you can make a real impact, this is an outstanding opportunity to join a progressive firm with an excellent reputation, high-quality work and exciting plans for the future.
