Job Details

As a 4+ Commercial Associate, do you have your sights set on continued progression, work with global implications and performing amongst influential Partners as part of an international team?

Join a Top 75 law firm, blending City-level working in all areas such Tech, Media and Sport, emphasising culture and life-balance that sets them apart from the competition.

The Firm

This firm deal with a quality of work commonly only associated with City practices. You will find an immensely diverse client base that continues to evolve constantly. The firm has performed exceptionally well over recent years and has grown year on year; they have strategic growth planned over the next 12 months in Oxford which will allow them to continue to obtain more market share.

You will find a strong leadership team that promotes an open-door culture where Partners are very accessible; everyone has a voice in throughout the organisation. It is commonplace to find trainees and paralegals sitting side by side with Partners; it is this approach to training, mentoring and development which has given the firm an excellent reputation for homegrown partner talent.

It is commonplace for even trainees to participate in marketing and business development activities actively. By getting lawyers involved even at the most junior level, it has provided them with a very commercially savvy team.

Despite the firm's size (over 900 staff), they have unusually managed to keep a family feel running throughout the practice and network of the office. They are a Top 75 law firm with a conscience. There have an excellent social element that is promoted with an active roster of events throughout the year.

The Role

4+ PQE Commercial Associate to join international Top 75 firm in Cardiff

Amongst experts and industry-renowned Partner, you will act on non-contentious commercial matters with technology, e-commerce, privacy, consumer, IP, advertising, marketing and media law.

In sync with the wider global offering of the firm, you will work with a transactional focus, with occasional advisory work to key clients across retail, technology, advertising and marketing, media, professional services, entertainment and sport sectors.

The team is growing due to continued investment, with Cardiff-office being a key area of focus for the firm, as they look to draw work away from the City.

Culturally, the team are energetic, friendly and have a track record of internal promotion. The Partners are keen to mentor, with the firm also seeing your development as a strategic obligation.

Requirements

  • 4+ years PQE with Commercial Law
  • Experience drafting, negotiating and advising on a range of commercial contracts
  • Commercially-driven, proud of what you do and keen to develop
  • Excellent analytical skills and attention to detail
