Pure Search are instructed on a unique opportunity with a corporate and finance boutique looking to significantly grow their practice with a number of hires.

The Firm:

Our client are a relative start-up firm in the market, with a high-end advisory approach focused on working with financial institutions, private equity funds, credit funds and sophisticated lenders. The firm is largely made up of ex-Magic Circle and US law firm lawyers who were looking to escape the 'big law' culture of the City in search of something more meaningful and sustainable.

The firm are unique in terms of having no billable target hours and no external time recording. Instead, the firm has a series of fixed-fee and retainer arrangements through their extensive network of former US and international law firm partners.

The Role:

Advising on corporate transactions, including domestic and cross-border M&A transactions, joint ventures, private equity and venture capital transactions, and restructurings. Predominantly advising a funds and private equity clients in the mid-market space.

About You:

You will be a UK-qualified corporate solicitor at a leading Legal 500-ranked practice with a minimum of six-months experience of private M&A or private equity and a maximum of six-years experience.

You will be someone who is considering a long-term move and looking to join a collegiate and collaborative firm with huge scope for progression, significant ambitions to grow and develop and a unique business structure offering something more meaningful than your average private practice firm.

This is a rare opportunity to maintain an extremely high-calibre of work, with a salary sitting between Magic Circle and mid-Atlantic firms, but with a significant shift away the larger City law firm hours and culture.
