Job Description:

Senior Corporate M&A Solicitor (Head of Department)

London | Build Something Real

£100,000-£120,000 Base + 33% bonus (on all billings above target) + Private Medical + Flexible / Hybrid Working + Progression to Equity Partnership (£250k+ PEP) + Large Marketing & Business Development Budget + ‘IMMEDIATE START’

A highly successful Southern law firm (Legal 500 ranked) has just launched its brand-new London City office due to year no year growth. This is a rare opportunity to be at the forefront of that growth. They’re now looking for a Senior Corporate Solicitor or Partner to help establish and scale a Corporate & Commercial offering in the City with full investment and support.

What makes this different?

This isn’t a “plug into an existing machine” role.

You’ll walk into £100,000 of existing corporate work from day one, with full backing from a profitable, well-managed regional firm that’s serious about its London expansion.

This is a genuine platform to build, shape, and lead with investment, autonomy, and zero legacy politics.

– Immediate revenue to get you going

– Clear mandate to grow a Corporate practice

– Strong cross-referrals from an established regional client base

– Entrepreneurial environment with real decision-making freedom

– Backing from a firm that has already proven its success outside London

Who this suits

– An existing Partner or ambitious Senior Associate / Legal Director with £150-£300k client following ready to step up.

– A lawyer who wants more control, visibility, and upside than a traditional City platform offers

If you’ve ever thought about building something of your own but with the security, infrastructure, and investment of an established firm behind you this is worth a conversation.
