A successful business group operating in the commercial supply and property-investment sectors with over 4 000 active business clients is looking to start its own law firm in Harlow Essex, to deal with legal work arising from their operations and to service the legal needs or their client network.
They are seeking an experienced commercial solicitor to join as the COLP/COFA and help establish the new firm. The role is fundamental to the firm's authorisation, and the appointed solicitor will have full professional and operational authority over the firm's compliance and legal management, in line with SRA requirements.
Initially, the focus will be on establishing and managing the firm. The firm will already have access to a significant existing commercial client base through the associated business network. There will be no formal revenue targets at the outset, but opportunities for business development and profit sharing will certainly be available as the firm grows.
The role will be hybrid working, with flexibility to work remotely as much as possible, provided the successful candidate can effectively manage, supervise, and fulfil COLP/COFA obligations.
The COLP/COFA will have continuous support from the company's management team and administrative staff. In addition, there will initially be one trainee solicitor working under their supervision.
They are happy to consider a directorship or partnership (equity or salaried), or senior consultant position, depending on the successful candidate's preference.
