    London

    Legal Consultancy – A Soft Landing for Lawyers Set your own hours Work from your preferred location I am recruiting for a unique opportunity offering lawyers a supported transition into legal consultancy and flexible working. The founder of the firm is forward-thinking and understands the challenges of building a practice, which is why the firm provides work for its consultants alongside their own business development efforts. This ensures the security of a monthly income while you build your own practice. With a background at Magic Circle law firms and some of the world’s largest corporations, the founder launched the consultancy to offer UK lawyers a modern alternative to traditional law firm structures. The firm has particular expertise in advising start-ups, scale-ups, VC-backed SMEs and other high-growth companies, including assisting clients in securing investment. The business has since grown rapidly to almost 50 professionals. Who should apply This opportunity is particularly suited to lawyers seeking a more flexible and modern way of working, while wanting the stability and support often missing from traditional fee-share models. The firm is particularly interested in lawyers practising in the following areas: • Corporate, • Commercial, • Employment, • Finance & Restructuring, • Intellectual Property, • Property / Real Estate, • Tax However, applications from lawyers in other practice areas are also welcome.

This opportunity offers a safer and more structured route into consultancy. If you have ever considered a move into consultancy, I would encourage you to apply and have an informal conversation to learn more. Unlike typical project-based consultancy work, the firm offers long-term consultancy relationships and consistent support while you build your practice. Consultant lawyers also benefit from: • Paralegal assistance and access to a collaborative legal team, • Administrative, operational and finance support, including invoicing and back-office functions, • In-house risk and compliance team, • Comprehensive professional indemnity insurance, • Holiday cover for client matters, • Mentorship and guidance while building your consultancy practice, • An internal referral programme offering up to 15% on matters referred internally
