Job title: Corporate Solicitor (Senior Associate / Principal Associate)
Location: Manchester, England
Salary: £75,000 – £90,000
We’re working with one of the UK’s most respected law firms to find an experienced Corporate Solicitor to join a highly regarded team that continues to attract sophisticated, high-value work across a broad range of sectors.
This isn’t a role built around impossible billing targets, endless hierarchy, or being the smartest person in the room. It’s a role where you’ll work alongside lawyers who are collaborative, commercially minded, and genuinely good at what they do.
You’ll work with a diverse client base spanning ambitious owner-managed businesses, high-growth companies, investors and established national organisations. The matters are commercially significant, often complex, and place you at the heart of strategic business decisions. Rather than becoming pigeonholed into a narrow area of corporate work, you’ll enjoy genuine variety, exposure to different sectors, and the opportunity to build trusted relationships with clients who value practical, commercially focused advice.
What truly sets this opportunity apart, however, is the environment in which you’ll work. While many firms make bold claims about culture, this is a team where collaboration is genuinely embedded in day-to-day practice.
Lawyers are encouraged to share knowledge, support one another and work collectively to achieve the best outcomes for clients. Partners remain approachable and invested in the development of their teams, creating an atmosphere where talented lawyers can thrive, progress and enjoy long-term careers.
Success is recognised not simply through financial performance, but through the quality of client relationships, contribution to the wider team and the impact you make within the business.
You’ll have access to significant client exposure, meaningful responsibility, and clear progression opportunities without sacrificing your life outside the office.
About You
You’ll likely be:
- A qualified Corporate Solicitor with solid transactional experience
- Comfortable running matters and managing client relationships
- Commercially minded and technically strong
- Looking for a long-term move rather than simply the next title
Whether you’re currently a Senior Associate looking for a stronger platform, or an experienced lawyer seeking a firm where you can genuinely build a future, we’d like to hear from you.
