Corporate Associate, 2-3 PQE, Regional Firm, £58,000-£70,000, Leeds
You'd be joining an established regional firm's corporate team in Leeds, at a practice that competes on long-term client relationships rather than transactional volume.
The work spans the full corporate range: acquisitions and disposals, private equity and other investments, shareholder arrangements and corporate structuring. At this level that breadth matters - it's the difference between building a rounded practice and being slotted into a single seam.
The role suits a corporate lawyer who trained or qualified at a medium or large firm and wants to move to a regional practice without giving up quality of work - trading big-firm scale for closer client contact and earlier responsibility.
With client relationships central to how the firm operates, you'd expect direct client contact sooner than at firms where associates sit behind several layers on every matter.
A solid corporate move for someone who wants regional-firm client contact without dropping down in work quality.
