Commercial Partner

Commercial Partner l Bristol l Top 100 Firm

The firm:

This firm has a strong foothold in the South West market, reaching into the Thames Valley and London. As such, they have become well established as one of the most successful full-service regional firms and continue to go from strength to strength on a national stage.

They have a distinctly modern, sophisticated style that is straightforward yet down to earth. Their lawyers enjoy more of a relaxed atmosphere with lots of social events in the calendar, flexibility to work in a way that suits and a proper balance between work and home life.

What makes them stand out from the crowd is their commitment to developing their lawyers and actively promoting from within which has allowed them to steadily grow in an organic way. Their staff retention rates and length of service records are further evidence of this commitment, making them an excellent employer to consider.

The Managing Partner joined the firm as a junior and has guided the firm through several growth transformations and remains dedicated to helping others achieve similar success. Therefore, for those looking to join, there's a compelling vision to buy into if you share the same passion and vigor.

The role:

In line with growth plans, this Top 100 firm is seeking a robust Commercial Partner to diversify its offering from Bristol.

The role is suitable for an established Commercial Partner, or an ambitious and well-connected Senior Associate/Managing Associate/Legal Director who is looking to make the move up to Partnership.

You will already have a client following, but what makes this opportunity so interesting is the existing flow of work ready to be handed over together with an abundance of cross-referral work to be properly capitalised on. Therefore, for the right person, there is a bright and lucrative future to be had at this firm.

Aside from fee-earning and leading on transactions, they're looking for someone with an entrepreneurial mindset who can deepen existing relationships and diversify new ones. You'll also show leadership qualities and have a say in the strategic direction of the practice whilst supporting juniors with their development.

This is a pivotal moment in the firm's journey, and they're looking for ambitious leaders who want to be a part of the next phase of their journey.
