Are you looking for a new and exciting challenge within Commercial Law? You may already be an established Partner, or someone looking for a new role to make that step towards partnership? If you have a track record of developing work, or perhaps a following of clients and are looking to join a firm that has untapped potential then this could be the role for you. An opportunity has arisen for a Commercial Solicitor or Commercial Partner to join this strong, and ambitious, regional firm in Leeds. Our client is based in Leeds City Centre and have an excellent reputation as being an 'employer of choice', they also have a fabulous record of growth and significant positive momentum. One of the top firms in the North, they are recognised across a wide range of commercial disciplines by the Legal 500 and Chambers guides. The Role
The firm have a strong client base, and at the moment they don’t have enough sufficiently experienced Commercial Lawyers in place, to capitalise upon the work. This is a great opportunity for either an established commercial partner, or someone looking for a clear run into a partner role and with a proven track record of successful client management.
The firm have an established presence across a broad range of sectors, including a particular immersion within the tech sector. Their clients range from SMEs to larger companies that are regional, national and international and comprise private and public sector businesses. Whilst there is flexibility as to the work, they have opportunity for someone to capitalise upon their strong client base within the tech sector. They have a reputation for working with young and growing companies, and retaining those relationships for the long-term meaning that they have a significant spectrum of clients.
Whilst they have an established Partner in Leeds already, there is clear opportunity for another to join as they simply can’t keep on top of the work and the opportunities.
There is the backup and support that you would find in larger Leeds firms, but they also give a lot of autonomy and independence that you wouldn’t necessarily find within national and international firms, meaning that you would have the opportunity to have an impact and progress at the pace appropriate to your development and experience, there are genuinely no bars to your progression.

They are happy to consider lawyers at Senior Associate level who are looking for a clear route to progression and want to build their profile with clients with the support of an existing partner.
They would love to recruit someone who is interested in supporting with the further development of the lawyers already within the team.
They work both across offices and across teams so a friendly, collegiate approach would be welcomed from anyone taking on this role. As mentioned, our client is open minded about the exact level that they can recruit at as there is flexibility within the role, however it's likely that you will be a Commercial Lawyer with at least 7 years PQE, however you could already be a Partner elsewhere.
Benefits
A highly competitive salary and benefits package is on offer. A fantastic career opportunity with no glass ceiling and a change to really make a mark on a firm. Hybrid working.

The role is to be based within Leeds City Centre, but you would sometimes find yourself working on site for the companies – truly integrated as a trusted legal advisor.
Our client, which is one of the UK's leading law firms, offers an incredibly friendly working environment accompanied by a world leading reputation, backed up by the countless awards that they have won. This role offers more flexibility and freedom than a typical commercial role would offer, so if you are looking to get away from traditional time recording, work directly with one or two leading corporates but have the luxury of other lawyers around you, this role can offer that highly unusual blend.
You will be working within the firms' 'in-house' team, this team literally takes over either the entire legal work of specific companies, or specific parts of it, taking on work that was previously handled in-house. The role is essentially to work as in-house lawyer but on behalf of one or two large clients at any point in time, offering the opportunity to work across sectors but focusing largely on commercial contracts and wider business as usual legal work.
Work will include providing high quality legal advice, mitigating commercial and legal risk and really integrating yourself into the client, their sector and their commercial imperatives. The firm provides a really innovative solution to some of the UK's highest profile companies, giving you the chance to be at the cutting edge of a genuine alternative to companies looking to outsource their legal services in a different way.
You will have the support of a global firm, really allowing you to drive your career forward at the highest level and surrounded by some of the brightest minds. There's no time recording, no chargeable targets and the option to get involved in business development but no requirement to do so, it's all about doing a great job for the company and getting to know them well. You will be fully supported by non-legal specialists across a number of sectors including IT and project management to deliver highly innovative solutions.
The firm is really open minded about the level of PQE that it is looking for. There are 2 roles and one will suit a Lawyer with c. 1-5 years PQE, with the other pitched at a more experienced level or c. 5 years + PQE. Ideally you will have solid commercial contracts experience gained either in house or in private practice. Whilst the lion’s share of the work is commercial they are happy to consider recruiting either corporate lawyers or even litigators, although you must have worked in a commercial discipline within litigation. They have recruited from within these disciplines successfully historically and are happy to do so again.
This practice is fully supporting a blend of home and office working going forward and as a consequence if you live further afield but could consider the commute for a couple of days a week don't discount this opportunity.
