4 weeks ago


Guildford Surrey, United Kingdom Ten-Percent Legal Recruitment Full time

A new vacancy has arisen with a medium sized Surrey law firm looking for a commercial property or corporate commercial solicitor to become their Legal Director/COO. They are a well-established, niche law firm with a national reputation and client base, which drives their revenue growth. The practice specialises in a specific sector acting for professionals and the role would suit a senior solicitor looking to focus on law firm management.

Your key responsibility would be to ensure that the firm is developing and maintaining excellent client relationships by delivering highest quality legal services, and you would be working as part of the senior management team. You will ideally be a commercial property solicitor with some corporate/commercial experience (not essential) or a corporate/commercial solicitor with a bit of commercial property (not essential), and you can expect to spend about 30% of your time on billable work with the remainder on law firm management. You may currently be employed in private practice or in-house.

Full time role with 3 days per week in the office required as a minimum, although you can be fully office based if preferred. The firm will offer a package in the range of £75 to £100k depending on the candidate.

Great opportunity to develop law firm management skills, become part of a successful operation and establish yourself in a senior role within a rapidly expanding business. The firm are looking for someone who has previous management experience, strong process-driven and legal control credentials, and is a self-starter. You will be able to demonstrate experience of building strong relationships with fellow professionals (both clients and colleagues); an ability to organise, improve and control systems and processes; strong commercial skills; strong practical problem-solving abilities, and an ability to 'join the dots' across legal domains.

When applying please include a covering note explaining why the role is of interest to you and outline to us what you can offer to the firm. The firm are particularly interested in seeing evidence of the skills set out above. Full and detailed job specification available on request, and you can contact us for an informal discussion about the role in strict confidence.
