London, United Kingdom Addleshaw Goddard Full time

PURPOSE OF THE ROLE

Working directly with and supported by the Partners in this market leading team you will enjoy high quality and exacting work from day one. It is a rewarding yet demanding role. You will be encouraged to develop your skills and establish your own relationships by working with Senior and Managing Partners and Chief Executive and Finance Officers from a wide range of professional firms on a daily basis - giving you client responsibility from the start. The team currently consists of three Partners, one Managing Associate and two Associates plus a trainee. This is an exciting opportunity to play a central role in transaction delivery, client relationship development and the continued expansion of the team and practice, which will provide clear career progression opportunities.

THE TEAM

Being recognised as a leading practice in our field by all legal directories, we are proud to be referred to as "the best transactional partnership team in the UK" by the Legal 500 and as "a formidable team" by Chambers UK. Our reputation has been built over more than two decades of dominating the sector - having been described as having a "client list to die for".
Our diverse client base includes top UK and international law firms, accountancy practices, real estate firms, financial services firms, insurance businesses, hedge funds, as well as architects, actuaries, patent and trademark attorneys, and consultancy businesses. 

We act as trusted advisors on the issues our clients face, such as mergers and acquisitions, profit sharing structures, disputes, financing, and distressed situations. Our services also extend to advisory work drafting partnership and LLP agreements, other constitutional documents, and addressing regulatory, disciplinary and investigatory issues.
Our expertise is demonstrated by our involvement in some of the most significant professional firm deals in the past decade, and advice on intricate international structuring issues.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS ROLE

UK and International mergers and de-mergers; International structures and liability issues; Drafting Partnership, LLP Members' Agreements and wider constitutional documents; Alternative business structures under the Legal Services Act 2007 and IPOs; US firms starting up in London and SRA regulatory issues; LLP conversions both from partnership and limited company status; Advising on governance, structuring, profit sharing and internal arrangements and the management of firms; Partnership disputes and enforcement of restrictive covenants as well as protection against team moves; and Regulatory and disciplinary issues including SRA and FCA investigations.
If you enjoy varied challenges, are curious about the inner workings of professional businesses and would like the opportunity to work with clients' senior management and boards on a wide range of commercial and confidential issues, then this could be the opportunity you are looking for. 

YOUR AREAS OF KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE

You do not need any previous experience of advising clients in the professional services sector. We will support you though a tested training programme as well as daily one-to-one support from all members of the team. However, we are particularly interested in someone with experience in mainstream corporate M&A who is looking for a different set of challenges whilst being able to deploy their existing skill set on the increasing number of transactional mandates which the team is engaged on.

be able to demonstrate an interest in the team's work and current issues facing the professions; be motivated, with an enquiring and adaptable mind and a strong eye for detail; be articulate in explaining complex legal and regulatory provisions as well as wider strategic issues; have excellent drafting skills and be able to draft without the comfort of direct precedents; have the potential to be seen as a trusted and knowledgeable business advisor to senior management, be capable of fostering and maintaining close and long lasting commercial relationships and to act with the utmost discretion on often very sensitive issues; enjoy providing a high standard of client care to a knowledgeable and exacting client base; want to contribute towards the development of the team and the Firm as a whole; and have an ability quickly to absorb new material, including regulatory rules and provisions.
