Are you a seasoned Corporate Solicitor seeking a more balanced and fulfilling role? This opportunity offers just that—combining high-quality corporate transactions with strategic, non-transactional project work in a truly unique setting.
Why This Role Stands Out
You'll still be involved in complex UK and international corporate deals, but with a significant portion of your time dedicated to high-level consultancy projects that extend beyond traditional legal work.
Working closely with a multidisciplinary team, you'll use your legal expertise to tackle business challenges for leading blue-chip clients—without the relentless time pressure of pure transactional roles.
This hybrid model offers both stimulation and sustainability.
About the Company
You'll be joining a globally respected professional services brand, known for delivering fully integrated, cross-disciplinary solutions.
Their legal division is growing fast, offering a rare chance to shape its future while working in a collaborative, forward-thinking environment—one that moves away from the rigid structure of many conventional law firms.
The Role
As a Corporate Solicitor, you will provide strategic legal counsel on a range of UK and cross-border matters.
You'll lead multi-jurisdictional transactions, advise major clients across sectors, and contribute to expanding the firm's corporate legal offering.
Around 50% of your workload will involve innovative project-based consultancy work—giving you space to breathe and grow.
Key Responsibilities
Advise on M&A, joint ventures, equity investments, corporate structuring, and reorganisations
Lead complex, cross-border transactions from start to finish
Collaborate across internal departments to deliver integrated client solutions
Support business development initiatives by leveraging the firm's strong internal market
Mentor and develop junior team members
Manage and build long-term relationships with high-profile clients
About You
UK-qualified solicitor with 6+ years PQE in corporate law
Strong background in M&A, equity investments, and restructurings
Proven ability to handle high-value, multi-jurisdictional matters
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
Entrepreneurial spirit and a proactive, solutions-focused approach
Experience mentoring junior lawyers is a plus
What's on Offer
£75,000-£90,000 base salary plus significant benefits including a clear and achievable bonus structure
Flexible hybrid working
Realistic, well-supported career progression
The chance to escape the "always-on" corporate grind
Opportunity to do varied, strategic work beyond deals
Inclusive, innovative, and supportive culture

An unmissable opportunity for an experienced Property Litigation Solicitor to join a highly recognisable, national law firm in Manchester.
Our client boasts extensive national reach with a network of offices spanning the country.
Their impressive client base covers both the public and private sector and the work that they attract is of the highest quality and includes some really unusual disputes.
The firm aim to work collaboratively across their multi-locational offices to offer their clients an all-inclusive legal service and that is no different for the property litigation team.
In this property litigation role, you will work closely with the top-rated real estate disputes team, many of whom have worked at leading London and national firms, to provide a high-quality legal service to first class clients.
You will have the opportunity to run a run range of complex and interesting property related disputes, and your responsibility level will depend upon your experience.
They are happy to recruit from 2 years' experience upwards, but you must already have property litigation experience.
Whilst they can accommodate new junior team members they are also considering more senior hire, in fact up to Partner level.
Your role will be shaped to suit, so at the more junior level you could find yourself running smaller matters yourself whilst working alongside others on the more complex and high value matters, this is a brilliant way to learn and develop.

The team strive to offer their clients the highest quality of service and to adapt to the evolving legal environment, looking to give commercial and practice solutions rather than just technical ones. They do all of this whilst maintaining the collegiate, but stretching, environment that they all really value.
Whilst the team works nationally and offer a blend of home and office working, if you are a junior lawyer there is plenty of support and development on offer and you will be encouraged to go into the office a few days a week to make the most of this.

Are you a Commercial Solicitor looking for something different? This role, which offers the best of both worlds between in house and private practice, is a unique opportunity to join a team which is going from strength to strength.
Top quality work, great clients and cutting edge technology, without the pressures of time recording and client billing targets.
Central Leeds office location with home working.
This role is to work directly for companies, very much as an in-house lawyer, but with the support of an award-winning law firm with all of the back-up, training and support that this offers.
The role is to be based within Leeds City Centre, but you would sometimes find yourself working on site for the companies - truly integrated as a trusted legal advisor.
Our client, which is one of the UK's leading law firms, offers an incredibly friendly working environment accompanied by a world leading reputation, backed up by the countless awards that they have won.
This role offers more flexibility and freedom than a typical commercial role would offer, so if you are looking to get away from traditional time recording, work directly with one or two leading corporates but have the luxury of other lawyers around you, this role can offer that highly unusual blend.
You will be working within the firms' 'in-house' team, this team literally takes over either the entire legal work of specific companies, or specific parts of it, taking on work that was previously handled in-house.
The role is essentially to work as in-house lawyer but on behalf of one or two large clients at any point in time, offering the opportunity to work across sectors but focusing largely on commercial contracts and wider business as usual legal work.
Work will include providing high quality legal advice, mitigating commercial and legal risk and really integrating yourself into the client, their sector and their commercial imperatives.
The firm provides a really innovative solution to some of the UK's highest profile companies, giving you the chance to be at the cutting edge of a genuine alternative to companies looking to outsource their legal services in a different way.
You will have the support of a global firm, really allowing you to drive your career forward at the highest level and surrounded by some of the brightest minds.
There's no time recording, no chargeable targets and the option to get involved in business development but no requirement to do so, it's all about doing a great job for the company and getting to know them well.
You will be fully supported by non-legal specialists across a number of sectors including IT and project management to deliver highly innovative solutions.
The firm is really open minded about the level of PQE that it is looking for.
There are 2 roles and one will suit a Lawyer with c.
1-5 years PQE, with the other pitched at a more experienced level or c.
5 years + PQE.
Ideally you will have solid commercial contracts experience gained either in house or in private practice.
Whilst the lion's share of the work is commercial they are happy to consider recruiting either corporate lawyers or even litigators, although you must have worked in a commercial discipline within litigation.
They have recruited from within these disciplines successfully historically and are happy to do so again.
This practice is fully supporting a blend of home and office working going forward and as a consequence if you live further afield but could consider the commute for a couple of days a week don't discount this opportunity.
To hear more about this Commercial Solicitor role, please contact Sophie Linley at Sacco Mann on 0113 236 6711.
