Leading Global Law Firm | London
Opportunities to take on the most senior international finance position at one of the world's leading law firms are few and far between.
Lex Talent has been exclusively retained to recruit a Director of Finance for a top 10 global law firm.
If you're an experienced finance leader within the legal sector, this is an opportunity worth considering.
Based in London, you'll take responsibility for the finance operations of the firm's largest international office, home to approximately 500 employees, while also overseeing finance teams across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
You'll work closely with senior partners and London leadership, as well as the firm's global finance leadership in the US. You'll have significant autonomy, responsibility, and visibility across the firm's international operations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The remit is broad and goes well beyond financial reporting. You'll oversee client accounting, billing, WIP, collections, budgeting, financial reporting, treasury, tax, and regulatory compliance, alongside the continued development and improvement of the finance function.
Just as importantly, you'll lead and develop international finance teams, advise senior partners, influence commercial decision-making, and play an important role in how the firm's international finance operations evolve.
You don't need to be doing this exact job today.
You may currently be a Finance Director, Head of Finance, Financial Controller, or another senior finance professional within a law firm who is ready to take on a broader remit.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
What matters is your understanding of law firm finance, your ability to lead people, and your confidence working with senior stakeholders in a demanding, high-performing environment.
For the right person, this represents a significant international leadership opportunity within one of the world's most respected law firms.
The search is being handled exclusively by Mark Neal at Lex Talent, and all conversations will be treated in complete confidence.
