Company Commercial lawyer
Fed up with the pressures and expectations of working for a large commercial law firm?
Sydney Mitchell offers a friendly and flexible environment where lawyers can develop their client base and skill set in an organisation that fosters a team approach with a high level of support. As BLS Law Firm of the Year 6 out of the last 10 years we work hard to make the firm a success and look after our most valuable asset – our staff.
The firm is looking for someone to join the commercial team in its Shirley office to work alongside the dispute resolution and commercial property lawyers at Shirley and in collaboration with the employment lawyers and the corporate and commercial team in the City Centre. You may have an existing client base or you may be ambitious and enthusiastic about business development. You probably also have a great social and home life and would like to leave the office at a sensible time allowing more time for pleasure and relaxation.
Our support teams provide all of the back-up you will be getting at a larger firm with strong accounts, marketing, HR , IT and compliance staff. You will be supported with your training and have access to up to date relevant online services and modern IT systems.
Our ethos is to provide great client service at all times. Many of our clients are very longstanding and much of our work comes from existing clients and recommendations. We have a strong network of professional contacts that regularly send us work.
Ideally you will have at least 8 years’ experience of company commercial law, preferably with some corporate experience. You might be keen to progress within a firm of our size with partnership as your goal.
Or, you might be someone who has many more years’ experience and is ready to trade the daily commute for somewhere more local or the strain of five 12 hour days each week for something more manageable. Maybe you are fed up with the demands of being a partner or supervisor and would prefer to go back to being client facing? We welcome partners from other firms who want to get back to being lawyers first and foremost.
Competitive remuneration package available.
