Corporate Associate

London
High-value transactions. Private client touch. Boutique feel with City-level quality.

You’ll be joining a leading London practice known for its unique crossover between corporate and private client work. This is a chance to work with exceptional clients — from family offices and UHNW individuals to fast-growth businesses and investment vehicles — on deals that are strategic, varied, and genuinely interesting.


If you enjoy the sophistication of top-tier transactional work, but value autonomy, personal relationships, and a collaborative culture, this role delivers both.



What You’ll Do
  • Support a well-resourced team on acquisitions, disposals, restructurings, joint ventures, and minority investments.
  • Advise private clients, family offices, and owner-managed companies across a range of sectors.
  • Draft and negotiate transaction documents, oversee due diligence, and coordinate with tax, real estate, and private client teams.
  • Take ownership of client relationships and communicate directly with decision-makers.
  • Supervise junior colleagues where appropriate and contribute to knowledge sharing.
  • Get involved in business development — building your network and personal profile within a respected mid-size firm.
What You’ll Need
  • England & Wales qualified solicitor, ideally around 1 year PQE in corporate or transactional work.
  • Strong academic record and training from a well-regarded firm.
  • Broad deal exposure — able to pivot between classic M&A, investments, and more bespoke matters.
  • Excellent drafting, negotiation, and analytical skills.
  • Commercially minded, discreet, and confident dealing with high-net-worth clients.
  • Comfortable working 3 days a week in the office , collaborating closely with partners and senior lawyers.
The Team
You’ll join a compact, dynamic corporate team working hand-in-hand with leading private client and tax advisers. The environment is supportive, the work is first-rate, and you’ll enjoy direct access to senior stakeholders who are genuinely invested in your development.


Expect a mix of corporate and entrepreneurial mandates — not just “cookie-cutter” M&A — giving you both depth and variety early in your career.



Why Apply
  • Exceptional client base: family offices, investors, and UHNW individuals.
  • A balanced, high-performing culture that values precision and personality equally.
  • Hybrid structure that supports collaboration and flexibility.
  • Clear progression and opportunity to shape your practice from day one.
Applications are open now, with interviews expected to commence in the new year. Early approaches from strong corporate associates are encouraged. [email protected]
