Job Details

Are you seeking an opportunity to be Head of Family Law at a young, modern, internationally acclaimed Law firm that has quadrupled in size in just under a year?

This role will give you excellent client contact with some of the biggest and interesting clients in the industry, as well as a high level of commercial and business acumen and exposure to high caliber work and clients rarely seen outside of London. This firm in general deal heavily with City quality work, often with well-known household names- from airline companies, to Football Clubs and supermarket chains- but on top of this offers a great work life balance, instant office camaraderie and kinship, and a team work ethos that will give you the chance to thrive.

This law firm's bonus structure is also one of the best that I have seen- you earn 40% of what you bill per annum above £180k.

You will lead an ambitious, driven, and experienced team of Family Solicitors, work alongside some of the best Partners and Solicitors in the industry, love every day that you go to work, and be rewarded for the hard work you put in. This is a firm that believes in fair play, a healthy team work environment, and that you should reap the rewards of your work.
