Are you seeking a new Practice Manager opportunity with a dynamic, modern, and progressive firm who punch well above their weight?
Based a stone's throw away from Oxford Street, this practice is ranked in the Legal 500 and are a tier in several practice areas. They have grown substantially in recent years and now stand at 60 staff. The firm tends to deal with SME to medium sized businesses; transactions impressively range in size roughly from £20m to £600million with the Corporate and Commercial Property departments recently having undertaken some seriously heavy weight work, giving much larger firms a run for their money. About 60% of their work has an International flavour, the work is often complex, varied and high value. The practice has a progressive and dynamic culture with a varying range of levels of experience, further enhancing the culture. The firm is well-known for their particular expertise and reputation with HNW individuals, recently having undertaken lots of work for an ultra HNW Russian client base.
The firm has within the last 24 months attracted some heavyweight Partners with big client bases. They have plans to grow over the next couple of years steadily.
The firm is seeking a new Practice Manager to join their flourishing West End office.
Currently, various Partners deal with the day to day practice management of the business each having different responsibilities. This has always worked well, although workload has increased, and also the company has recently merged with a smaller practice, and the headcount has grown, and the firm is now looking for an experienced Practice Manager to act as the glue between the Partners and take over the general management of the firm. You will deal with compliance, recruitment, strategy, budgets and many other responsibilities. The firm has a strong finance team so this is handled separately, but you will go between departments liaising at a senior management level.
You will have the following:
- You will have at least four years' experience of working as a Practice Manager for a law firm
- You should have dealt with compliance and strategy
- You will be confident in dealing at a senior level
- Salary is very much negotiable depending on your background
This is an excellent opportunity for a Private Client Senior Associate / Partner to join a Legal 500, West End practice.
