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 role will involve advising on a broad range of corporate matters, including:
- UK and cross-border mergers & acquisitions
- Disposals and strategic investments
- Private equity transactions
- Corporate reorganisations and restructuring projects
- Equity capital markets matters and wider strategic corporate advisory work
While the role will have a strong focus on transactional M&A work, there will also be the opportunity to gain exposure to wider corporate and capital markets matters depending on your experience and interests.
Working closely with partners and senior stakeholders, you will take a leading role on transactions, manage key client relationships, supervise and mentor junior lawyers, and contribute to the ongoing development of the practice. The team works closely with colleagues across multiple practice areas and offices, offering exposure to complex, high-value, and often multi-jurisdictional transactions.
