Job Description:

Corporate Senior Associate | Fully Remote | 5-8+ PQE | UK Based Lawyers Only |

A rare opportunity has arisen for an ambitious Corporate Senior Associate to join a fast-growing, modern law firm working on high-quality London-level corporate work – fully remotely.

This is NOT a traditional volume M&A role.

The team acts heavily for private equity investors, founder-led businesses, and high-growth companies, with a strong focus on:

  • Investment agreements
  • Shareholders’ agreements
  • Private equity backed transactions
  • Growth share structures
  • Management incentive arrangements
  • Buy-and-build strategies
  • Platform and bolt-on acquisitions

The successful candidate will step into a genuinely hands-on role with immediate responsibility, direct client exposure, and the opportunity to help lead and develop a growing corporate team.

You’ll ideally have:

  • 5-8+ PQE from a respected corporate practice
  • Strong experience in PE/investment documentation
  • Excellent drafting and negotiation skills
  • Confidence running transactions autonomously
  • Experience supervising juniors/paralegals
  • A commercial and entrepreneurial mindset

Why consider it?

  • Fully remote working
  • High-quality corporate/PE work
  • Strong deal flow
  • Genuine autonomy and responsibility
  • Modern, entrepreneurial culture
  • Clear progression prospects
  • Opportunity to help shape a growing practice

This role would suit someone looking to move away from rigid traditional structures while still maintaining exposure to sophisticated London-level work and clients.
