Corporate Partner

Altrincham – £100,000 - £120,000

Head of Corporate
Cheshire
Salary c. £100,000 + bonus + genuine leadership opportunity
  
A rare opportunity for a senior corporate lawyer ready to step up into a leadership role.
  
This position offers the chance to take ownership of a growing corporate practice within a well-established commercial firm. The platform is already there – quality clients, strong internal referrals and an experienced commercial team around you – but the firm wants someone ambitious who is ready to shape and lead the next phase of growth.
  
Why this role stands out 

• £100k salary with bonus and progression to partnership
• Step into a leadership position rather than waiting years for a title
• High quality corporate work including M&A, investments and strategic advisory
• Strong internal referral network from commercial, property and litigation teams
• Support to build and develop your own team
• Autonomy and influence over the direction of the corporate offering
• Hybrid working and a genuinely sensible approach to billing and targets
• A firm recognised for its culture and growth in recent industry awards

The role
 
You will lead and develop the corporate offering, working closely with partners across the firm to grow the practice and service existing clients.
  
The firm already has a steady flow of corporate work and strong client relationships across multiple sectors. The focus is now on bringing in someone capable of taking that work and building a recognised corporate practice around it.
  
The person
  
This role is ideal for a Senior Associate, Legal Director or junior Partner who wants a genuine leadership opportunity.
  
You will likely have:

• Around 8+ years’ PQE in corporate law
• Strong experience in M&A and general corporate advisory
• The ambition to build and lead a team
• Commercial instincts and the confidence to work closely with clients

A following is not required. The firm is far more interested in someone with drive, leadership potential and the ability to grow a practice.
