No timesheets. No individual targets. Flexible & Hybrid role.
We're looking for a Senior Corporate Lawyer (8+ years PQE) to take ownership of sophisticated transactional work and help drive the growth of our Corporate practice - with the autonomy to run matters your way, backed by a collaborative team.
Some Of The Responsibilities You'll Be Trusted To Run
- Lead sophisticated corporate and transactional matters end-to-end, including private M&A (share and asset sales) from due diligence through to completion
- Advise founders, boards and executive teams on strategic corporate and governance matters, capital raising, and equity incentive arrangements (including ESOPs)
- Build and own senior client relationships - acting as a trusted adviser, not just a transaction executor
- Play an active role growing the Corporate practice, converting opportunities through your own networks and market presence
- Mentor junior lawyers and help set the technical and cultural standard for the team
What You'll Bring
- 8+ years' PQE in corporate law, with a strong private M&A track record from a reputable private practice
- Confidence running deals independently, with minimal supervision
- A commercial mindset - you give practical advice grounded in what clients actually need
- A genuine interest in growing a practice, not just servicing one
- A collaborative approach to mentoring and team culture
Why Law Squared
We don't track billable hours or set individual budgets, and we've embraced flexible and hybrid working since day one. Your team hits its targets and celebrates together - no silos, no internal competition.
If becoming a partner isn't your main career driver, and you want real autonomy inside a collaborative firm, this is where you belong.
