The Role
We are looking for an associate (approximately 2-4 years PQE) to join Russell-Cooke’s Charity and Not for Profit team, providing support exclusively to charities and not-for-profit organisations. The team of 15 lawyers is one of the leading charity practices, highly rated by both Legal 500 and Chambers. Our clients include some of the most prominent household name charities as well as numerous medium-sized and start-up charities, individual philanthropists and corporate foundations.
The work would be varied and would suit someone with charity law or corporate / commercial experience who is enthusiastic about developing new areas of expertise and working within the charity sector.
The role is principally advising on charity governance and commercial matters. It is a broad and varied role which will include setting up new charities, drafting and amending governing documents, providing advice on company and charity law, assisting with charity mergers or incorporations and advising on commercial contracts.

The role is based in Putney, London with the opportunity to work from our Holborn office. Part-time would be considered.
Technical skills and expertise
Some experience of working with third sector organisations or a strong interest in the sector is expected. The role would suit someone with 2-4 years of post-qualification experience, but we are open to applications from anyone with a genuine interest, including people with relevant in-house experience or who have come to law as a second career. All lawyers in our team are given support to develop their career and are involved in shaping department strategy.Your career development
Russell-Cooke’s lawyers are rounded professional advisers with strong commercial awareness and a commitment to exceeding client expectations. All our lawyers benefit from our cohort based career development programme. We understand the importance of building an internal network and have developed an excellent cohort programme to allow our lawyers to work together across practice areas and share their knowledge, experiences and networks.
At each stage of your career, and as you move through the cohorts, a bespoke training programme will be provided to support you with your development and progression.

We offer competitive salaries and generous benefits.
