We are the embedded hiring partner to a growing corporate law firm offering a genuine pathway into a Training Contract.
The firm operates a structured 4 Day Working Week and has built a reputation for accelerating the development of early-career lawyers through hands-on exposure to live transactions, client work and structured mentoring.
This role is designed for someone who wants to develop the technical and commercial foundations required for a successful career in corporate law.
Strong performers in the role will be well positioned to progress into a Training Contract.
The Role
You will work closely with the corporate team supporting live transactions and client matters while developing your technical understanding of corporate law.
From the outset you will gain exposure to real deal activity rather than purely administrative support work.
Your responsibilities will include:
• Supporting lawyers on corporate transactions and advisory matters
• Assisting with legal research and preparation of transaction documents
• Supporting due diligence and document review processes
• Helping coordinate deal activity and maintain organised transaction files
• Assisting with drafting and reviewing supporting documentation
You will work directly with experienced lawyers and partners, gaining practical insight into how corporate deals are structured and delivered.
Development & Training
A core part of the role is professional development.
The firm has a proven approach to developing future lawyers through structured training, mentorship and real transaction exposure.
You will receive:
• Ongoing technical training in corporate law
• Direct mentoring from experienced lawyers
• Exposure to live deals and client relationships
• A clear pathway toward a Training Contract for high performers
The environment is designed to accelerate learning rather than slow it.
About You
You may already have experience within corporate law, but this is not essential.
We are open to candidates who have worked in other areas of law and are looking to transition into corporate practice.
You will demonstrate:
• A genuine interest in corporate law and transactions
• Strong academic grounding in law
• Attention to detail and organised working habits
• Confidence communicating with colleagues and clients
• Motivation to develop quickly in a professional environment
Why This Role
You will join a firm that combines strong commercial work with a modern working model.
The structured 4 Day Working Week supports focused working while maintaining high professional standards.
More importantly, the role provides a genuine opportunity to build the experience and capability required to secure a Training Contract.
