A well-established independent firm is looking for a senior lawyer to join its corporate team in Leeds. This is a lead role from the outset. You will run your own transactions across M&A, corporate reorganisations, joint ventures and structured lending, rather than working in support on a partner’s matters.
Clients are mainly owner-managed businesses, entrepreneurs and start-ups, alongside high net worth individuals. Many of them come back to the team for personal as well as business advice, so you get to know a client over years rather than one deal at a time. The work spans mid-market and larger transactions, with particular sector experience in food and drink, technology and manufacturing.
Business development is part of the brief, and the firm backs it. Senior lawyers here are expected to build their own client and introducer networks, which gives you a real opportunity to grow a practice of your own. The team is ranked in both Chambers and Legal 500, and you will play a part in developing the more junior lawyers coming through it.
For a corporate lawyer ready to lead deals and build a name in the Leeds market, this is a standout move.
