Manchester, United Kingdom TLT Full time

This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced lawyer to join our growing corporate team in Manchester working with major clients across a range of transactions and sectors.

Our dynamic legal 500 ranked national corporate team operates across our Birmingham, Bristol, Belfast, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Manchester and London offices, covering the full UK jurisdiction. TLT has been named Law Firm of the Year at the Legal Business Awards 2023. This marks the third year in a row TLT has presented with this accolade in industry awards - having previously been named Law Firm of the Year at The Lawyer Awards in 2021 and the British Legal Awards in 2022. The Experian league table also confirmed our corporate team as the 2nd most active legal adviser in the Southwest, for the volume of deals completed in 2022.

The development and growth of our corporate team has largely been built on investment in sector specialism: our senior lawyers are supported in developing their sector expertise to align with the firm's specialist sectors which include Financial Services, Leisure Food and Drink, Overseas Investment, Future Energy, Retail and Consumer Goods, Digital and Real Estate.

**Your Role**:
As a Senior Associate, you will deliver the following:

- Perform at a senior level and play a lead role on transactions, which typically divide into providing strategic advice, leading negotiations of key documents and project management of the relevant transactions.
- Work as part of a close-knit team, in which there are no rigid sub-teams with all team members working with each other on a full range of M&A transactions, including corporate acquisitions and disposals, management buy-outs/ins and private equity and venture capital investments.
- Advise a range of clients from large listed and unlisted companies, PE/VC backed companies, mid-market PE investors, venture capital firms, ambitious management teams and founder shareholders.
- Collaborate with the senior team on our business development strategy, including profile-raising events and communications.
- Support with the supervision and development of Paralegals, Trainees and Associates.

In return we will invest in you. We want you to be successful. You will manage your own client matters, ensuring your experience is varied and broad. Through our national service lines you will work with notable clients and become a sector specialist. You will receive bespoke training throughout your career ensuring you have the technical and commercial skills to build an effective and successful practice, developing your technical and management skills.

**Your Skills and Experience**:
You will have/be:

- A forward thinker, able to demonstrate first class communication skills with the ability and confidence to engage with clients and colleagues at all levels.
- A proven track record in business development and maintaining strong client relationships.
- Able to develop a deep understanding of your client’s business needs, and act in the best interest of the firm and the client.
- Able to contribute to our collaborative culture, with an ambition to assist in the development of junior team members.

**Your Team**:
The TLT corporate team covers the full UK jurisdiction and advises on mid-market transactions often with a national and international profile. Our corporate lawyers have a reputation for providing technically excellent advice combined with commerciality and pragmatism. We advise on a range of complex corporate transactions and regularly support our private, listed and international corporate clients on mergers and acquisitions, group restructurings, management buyouts, joint ventures, strategic investments and associated agreements. One of the largest teams in the firm’s largest practice group, we are supported by a full range of specialist transaction support lawyers including tax, anti-trust, intellectual property, commercial, commercial property, banking and finance, employment and regulatory.

Sector specialism includes Financial Services, Leisure Food and Drink, Overseas Investment, Future Energy, Retail and Consumer Goods, Digital and Real Estate.

We are also supported by TLT's FutureLaw team, a multi-disciplinary group of specialists, including lawyers, process designers, technologists, knowledge management experts, data analysts, product and project managers who help to provide our transaction technology and project management resources, in conjunction with our Managed Legal Services team.

**About TLT**:
Fast paced, fast growing and forward thinking, TLT is the law firm that helps clients stay one step ahead, and we do the same for our people.

We work with high profile clients in innovative sectors. With local, national and international reach, we have over 1,400 people in offices across the UK and a network of partner firms across Europe, India and the US.
