Our UK law firm client has a long-standing presence in VC and PE space and a busy, effective team acting for scaleup, fast growth and more established mid-market UK clients – sponsors and corporates.

The team are now looking for a Funds partner, in London, likely with an existing network of contacts, a profile in the London market, and someone who wants to help drive this practice area forward with a degree of autonomy. There is some existing workflow that can be inherited by an incoming partner, but the firm ultimately needs business builders across its entire offering so it is important you can show a willingness to build, develop and deepen client relationships. Technically, you will need expertise in structuring, establishment and advice to VC and similar funds, even if this may sit within a more generalist funds skill set.

Existing partners within this firm are highly regarded and ranked in the directories and, overall, the department has a loyal client base which continues to grow and prosper. All the necessary infrastructure is in place to accommodate a funds partner, including regulatory, tax, finance and corporate. It is important that you understand and enjoy the nature and culture of these types of clients, the requirements they have of their external counsel and the level of advice required on a day-to-day basis.

The firm is happy to consider existing partners, and those on the cusp of partnership who are being frustrated by bottlenecks. But in both cases cultural fit will be crucial + a realistic business plan.

With a super brand and affable, committed partners this opportunity represents a good, established platform for those looking to make a long-term lateral move and be part of what is already an impressive growth story. The firm is stable, profitable and has strong retention rates.

Our national law firm client has a highly regarded full-service offering and now seeks to further strengthen its Tax group with an additional partner hire in London.

The partners are happy to consider existing partners and also talented senior lawyers on the cusp of partnership.

This is a really good opportunity for a senior and experienced tax lawyer to bring additional and complementary skills to this team and in particular around the tax advice on SEIS, EIS and VCT structures.  Given the full-service nature of the firm there is plenty of additional and supportive expertise in other areas such as regulatory, corporate, finance and broader corporate tax. Significant internal workflows are coming out of these and other teams given the firm’s sector focus and reputation in the fast growth, startup and scaleup market.

As a well-established firm our client has a significant number of historic client relationships across sectors which will continue to keep this practice area busy with new instructions. Therefore, skill set (and profile) are going to be a much more important consideration than bringing your own relationships/following - although, good client handling skills will be crucial. You should also be willing to get involved in the management of the team and show the energy and enthusiasm to drive this practice area forward.

Exceptional retention rates (for all levels at the firm) and a transparent compensation structure speak volumes for the collaborative and collegiate nature of this firm. You can be assured of plenty of support from the partners as you bed in and a first-rate infrastructure, including an excellent, motivated associate body. This is a superb opportunity to join an impressive group of lawyers and progress your career at a profitable and stable firm.
