* Contribute to business development efforts and play a key role in the growth of the firm’s commercial department.
* Work alongside a team of experts in various practice areas to deliver a full-service legal offering to clients.

Key Requirements:

* 5-10 years PQE in commercial law, with a solid understanding of cross-border matters.
* Proven experience in T&Cs, commercial contracts, compliance, and regulatory matters.
* Pre-litigation experience, with the ability to resolve issues efficiently before they escalate to litigation.

* Ability to manage a diverse caseload and work on high-value transactions ranging from £350,000 to £3.5 million.
* Excellent communication, negotiation, and client management skills.

* Hybrid working, offering flexibility to work from home and in the office as needed.
* The opportunity to work with an international client base and handle significant cross-border matters.
* The chance to work in a small, close-knit team, offering a high degree of autonomy and responsibility.
* Career development opportunities within a growing firm, providing exposure to a wide variety of legal issues.
