ABOUT YOU:

The business of the team is growing, and we are looking for lawyers at the Senior Associate / Principal Associate level to join us and assist us in delivering the very best client experience.
You will work as part of client teams with the ability to develop long-term trusted relationships, you will work with all the partners and directors across the range of corporate work-types, and you will have the opportunity to develop your own business development initiatives and improve your professional skills.

We are looking for Senior Associates to join our Corporate Birmingham team and undertake a wide spectrum of high-quality corporate work – principally mergers and acquisitions, private equity, equity capital markets, joint ventures and group restructurings working collaboratively with fellow team members including the five equity partners who lead the team.
As part of a national team comprising 70 lawyers, the Birmingham corporate team provides comprehensive corporate legal advice, with a strong emphasis on M&A and private equity transactions. The team is known for its cohesive and supportive culture and is highly responsive and results-driven in its approach to both clients and colleagues.
Recognised as a top-tier team by both Chambers UK and The Legal 500, it is widely regarded as one of the leading corporate practices outside the City of London. While the team handles a significant volume of high-quality regional work, the majority of its transactions are for national and international clients, many of which are multi-jurisdictional.
The team has demonstrated strong sectoral and international expertise, attracting work of the highest calibre. Key sectors include advanced engineering (including aerospace and defence), health and life sciences, technology and real estate. Internationally, the team leads the firm’s initiatives in the USA, India, Germany, and Scandinavia, with team members regularly travelling to these regions.
Clients include Lloyds Development Capital, BGF, Birmingham City Council, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners, Rigby Group, HC-One, Cummins, Midcounties Co-operative, THG, the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, Weetabix and Avison Young.
