Following significant client wins, this entrepreneurial regional firm is looking to bring a Financial Services Regulatory Senior Associate to the team in Bristol.
The multi award-winning firm is one of the largest regional firms outside of London and their Financial Services Regulatory team has been growing steadily over the last few years.
They now need an experienced lawyer to help build the practice further. A real benefit for the Senior Associate is the fact you will walk into a sizeable caseload, while being given the freedom and support to deliver your own business development activities. There is the opportunity to progress within the role, the level and speed of your progression will be entirely within your control and based upon merit.
About the role
You will have a broad and varied caseload, operating with clients nationally. As a Senior Associate you will assist with buying/selling IFA businesses and providing regulatory and commercial advice in areas such as consumer finance. You will work with the likes of Lighthouse Group and Succession Advisory Services to name but a few.
You will meet with clients regularly and undertake and lead business development initiatives to develop new clients. Your targets are achievable to ensure you can focus on the long-term benefits for you and the firm, not just billable hours. You will also be tasked with mentoring the more junior lawyers within the team. This will be a challenging and demanding role, working to tight deadlines and supporting highly valued clients. The successful candidate should be able to demonstrate the following:
- An extensive track record of delivering FS regulatory advice within a leading, commercial law firm. The firm recognises their client base is varied and they can accommodate a specialist in a field such as Consumer Finance as much as they can a broad generalist.
- A passion for business development. The firm’s client base has grown, but they are not resting on their laurels and you will play an integral role in developing this further.
- Commercial awareness. You will be adept at spotting opportunities and providing a solutions-led approach to the firm’s client base. You will collaborate with other practice areas and cross sell on a regular basis.
