Job Description
If youโre a corporate lawyer in the Manchester area who wants real influence and not just a seat at the table, then this role is worth a conversation (I am very discreet).
Manchester corporate lawyers are in demand and always have been. This firm knows it and is investing deliberately for the long term, not chasing short-term billings or quick wins.
Youโll have the autonomy to build locally, with the depth and firepower of a national and award winning corporate platform behind you.
