Job Details

The firm are recognised across Surrey and London as a leading regional business across a number of practice areas, and their steady growth plans have resulted in a bumper 2018, achieving their best year yet. Competing with some of the biggest names in the region, the firm are regularly listed for awards often ranked in the Surrey and London Legal 500 listings across a number of practice areas.

With a senior Family lawyer and current head of department departing, there is an exceptional opportunity for an ambitious Associate or Senior Associate to take on a key role within this high flying business. You will be given a remit to pick up and continue to grow the existing client base across Surrey and West London with extensive support from the business.

The incoming lawyer must be highly technically competent in all aspects of privately funded family law and experienced, particularly the financial repercussions of relationship and marital breakdown and will also be a highly ambitious individual, self motivated and comfortable to be heavily involved in continuing to grow an already successful department.

The role offers unparalleled opportunities for progression within a business who offer not only a clear and uninhibited progression structure but who actively encourage senior lawyers who aspire to reach partner level. You will be provided with all of the tools, budget and support to succeed within the role and this is a fantastic opportunity to take ownership for a project that is already bearing great fruit over the last few years.

The firm offer a highly competitive starting salary as well as a bonus scheme better than any I have encountered in the regions thus far. Many of the top fee earners have the opportunity to take home a significant percentage of their salary in bonus based on personal and team performance over the year.

For more information about the role, please contact David Holden at Search Legal on 01273 855000 for a completely confidential conversation or email david.holden@search.co.uk to arrange a time to speak. This is an URGENT requirement and will not last long!
