The firm advises sophisticated clients across corporate, commercial, disputes, regulatory and tax matters and offers a genuinely lean, collaborative environment with close partner involvement.
Due to continued growth, the firm is seeking a 3-5 PQE Corporate Associate with broad corporate experience. This is not a role for someone narrowly focused on one transactional area.

- Advising clients directly and developing strong commercial relationships.
- Developing wider commercial experience alongside corporate work.
- Taking genuine ownership of matters within a small, lean team.
The successful candidate will have:
- England & Wales qualification.
- 3-5 years' PQE from a leading City, international, US or highly regarded boutique firm.
- Broad corporate experience rather than a narrow transactional specialism.
- Strong experience across M&A and general corporate work, with exposure to areas such as joint ventures, investments, severance and development projects.
- Commercial experience, or a genuine willingness to develop this.
- Excellent drafting, negotiation and communication skills.
- Ambition to progress within a growing boutique environment.
The opportunity
- Competitive Package
- Hybrid working.
- Extremely close mentorship from a senior partner.
- High-quality corporate and commercial work.
- Small, lean and collaborative team.
