London, Greater London, United Kingdom Taylor Root Full time

**Market Update for NQ Solicitors**

The NQ market for 2025 is experiencing a significant surge in activity across various practice areas. This shift has resulted in external processes commencing earlier than anticipated, with some firms already initiating interviews for finance roles. Notably, three firms have started actively interviewing for finance positions, while one firm is interviewing for funds roles, and more opportunities are expected to emerge in Q4 from transactional and contentious areas.

**Key Practice Areas:**

  • Leveraged finance
  • Structured finance and capital markets
  • Private funds
  • Corporate tax or corporate insurance
  • M&A and PE (mixed or separate practices)
  • Restructuring
  • Arbitration and litigation (mixed or separate practices)
  • Real estate and construction

**Assessing External Options**

Given the rapid upturn in market activity and retention rates on previous cohorts, it is an opportune time for NQ solicitors to explore external options. This may involve discussing potential opportunities with Taylor Root or other firms to determine the best fit for their career goals.

**Requirements:**

  • Completion of a training contract at a top 50 firm, qualifying between January and May 2025
  • At least 6 months of experience in any of the above areas
  • Strong academic record with a 2.1 degree
