GROWTH OPPORTUNITY: Residential Development & Strategic Land Senior Associate/Partner £100,000 ++ (City Of Bristol)

GROWTH OPPORTUNITY: Residential Development & Strategic Land

Senior Associate/Partner | Top 50 UK Law Firm | Bristol

Hybrid working. £100,000 +

I have spent years listening to law firms tell me they are growing – usually right before a hiring freeze.

But once in a while, I come across something that is not just recruitment guff.

Bristol. Top 50 UK firm. Residential Development & Strategic Land.

They are planning to expand from 70 up 250+ people, with most of that growth in Real Estate.

That is not just adding a few associates to look busy in client meetings. That is serious expansion.

Here is what makes this different from the usual corporate waffle:

They are looking for a Senior Associate or Partner to work alongside an incoming partner. No maintaining an existing client base or filling a gap – this is about building something properly.

The incoming partner isn't some random lateral hire either. They are a big player bringing in good quality work.

Let's talk about influence. In most firms, you'd be Associate #12 waiting for someone to retire before you get noticed. Here, you will actually have visibility as the office grows.

And yes, they are paying for it. The compensation package is specifically designed to lure top people away from competitors. They are not expecting you to take a pay cut for culture or work-life balance while the partners pocket the difference.

What is interesting is they are already winning against the established players. They have pulled talent from Bristol's top firms and even convinced London lawyers to relocate (a miracle in itself).

Perhaps most refreshingly, they are not fixated on some rigid job description written by HR in 2014. They are looking for the right person first, then tailoring the role around them.

You will fit if you:

• Are driven but don't measure your worth solely by billable hours
• Actually care about helping clients in residential development & strategic land
• Want to build your personal reputation alongside the firm's

If youare tired of being promised growth opportunities that mysteriously never materialize, this might be worth a conversation.

Contact me if you want the unvarnished details.
