Corporate Law Retraining Opportunity | Top 20 International Law firm

This award-winning, International heavyweight are looking to retrain 2+ years PQE Corporate / Commercial Lawyers into their bespoke and heavy hitting Projects team.

This opportunity is highly suitable for Corporate Lawyers looking to steer away from fast paced, volume focussed M&A work. This Projects position gives you the opportunity to work on bespoke Joint Ventures between public & private businesses, providing exposure to the broader life cycle of the UK's largest and most prominent projects.

The Firm

This multinational firm has an unparalleled reputation for providing exemplary service across a range of sectors. It has numerous Legal 500 Tier 1 rankings and Chambers & Partners top-ranked departments, as well as countless ranked individuals and rising stars. It is renowned for the legal talent it attracts, which is a testament to both the quality of the work, the ongoing staff development and the working culture.

Despite its size, notable growth and strong profits, staff at the firm report a friendly and warm working environment and a management team who genuinely care for their workers.

The firm has won numerous awards in recognition of the outstanding quality of the work produced, as well as for successfully cultivating an inclusive and diverse workplace.

The Role

Working with this Legal 500-ranked Projects team, you will gain exposure to exciting and innovative work with a diverse range of clients, supporting large-scale projects which are at the forefront of development in the UK.

As a key member of the team, you will advise on market-leading projects across private and public partnerships. This team deals with some of the UK's largest development projects whilst collaborating with the most prominent public organisations. You will be working as part of a team in delivering the most prominent real estate / regeneration projects.

The work you will be involved in will reshape the face of the UK for generations to come and is vital to transforming and modernising the landscape for sustainable and productive use.

This firm are looking to retrain Corporate Solicitors who are ideally seeking more exposure across the entirety of the projects life cycle, as opposed to volume based M&A work. This role offers a more bespoke platform for those looking to have more involvement dealing with stakeholders of businesses.
