Excellent salary and benefits



Increase your chances of reaching the interview stage by reading the complete job description and applying promptly.

I'm currently working with a highly regarded UK and international law firm that is looking to appoint a Senior Associate (6+ PQE) to its established Corporate team in the Surrey area.


This is a particularly strong opportunity for a corporate lawyer who enjoys working with high-growth businesses, founders, investors and innovative companies.


The team has a strong track record across M&A, venture capital, private company fundraising, spin-outs and wider corporate advisory work, with notable expertise in the technology and life sciences sectors and in supporting businesses from early-stage investment through to exit.


The successful candidate will take a leading role on transactions, including drafting and negotiating key transaction documents, managing deals from instruction through to completion, advising clients on ongoing company law and governance matters, and working closely with clients, investors and other advisers. There will also be the opportunity to supervise junior lawyers and play an active role in the team's business development initiatives.


One of the real attractions of this position is the level of visibility and responsibility available. The successful candidate will work closely with the partnership, have direct client exposure and be encouraged to develop their own profile and relationships as they progress towards the next stage of their career.


The wider firm combines a substantial UK presence with an international footprint across Europe and Asia, while its Surrey office forms an important part of its South East offering.


I'm particularly interested in speaking with lawyers who have:

  • 6+ years' PQE +
  • A strong Corporate background within private practice
  • Experience leading M&A and/or venture capital transactions
  • The ability to run transactions from start to finish
  • Experience supervising junior lawyers
  • An interest in developing client relationships and contributing to BD


The firm also operates a hybrid working model, allowing up to 50% remote working, alongside a supportive and collaborative office environment. xwzovoh


For a Senior Associate looking for high-quality transactional work, greater client exposure, genuine career progression and the opportunity to build a profile within a respected Corporate practice, this is well worth exploring.
