Corporate Solicitor (2-10 years PQE)
Location: Belfast (Hybrid)
Salary: Excellent + Private Health Insurance + Market-Leading Benefits

I am delighted to be partnering with one of Northern Ireland's leading commercial law firms as they continue to grow their highly regarded Corporate team. Following sustained growth and a strategic review, the firm is now seeking to appoint two Corporate Solicitors to join their busy, supportive and collaborative practice.

This is an outstanding opportunity for motivated lawyers to work on high-quality, often high-value matters within a team known for its expertise, client care and modern, progressive culture.

The Role

Working alongside experienced Partners and senior colleagues, you will advise a broad range of clients, from emerging businesses through to major corporations and investors. You will gain exposure to a wide mix of corporate and commercial work, including:

  • Mergers and acquisitions and corporate restructures

  • Drafting and negotiating SPAs, shareholder and investment agreements

  • Advising on corporate governance and general company law matters

  • Exposure to commercial contracts, due diligence and wider cross-departmental projects

The team offers an exceptional platform for development, providing a supportive environment where you can grow your skill set and take on increasing responsibility at your own pace.

About You

  • Qualified Solicitor with approximately 2-10 years PQE

  • Transactional corporate experience is welcome, but candidates with strong commercial contracts experience and an interest in developing further in corporate work are also strongly encouraged to apply

  • Strong drafting and communication skills, with the ability to build positive client relationships

  • A proactive, team-oriented approach and a commercial mindset

This firm is very open to applicants from a range of backgrounds within corporate or commercial law, including those seeking to broaden their exposure to M&A work.

Why Apply?

You will be joining a firm that combines excellent work with a genuinely supportive culture:

  • Hybrid working arrangements

  • High-quality work with top-tier clients across multiple sectors

  • A collaborative, friendly team with a clear progression pathway

  • Excellent salary and bonus

  • Private health insurance and a comprehensive benefits package

If you are a Corporate or Commercial Solicitor looking to take the next step in your career with one of Northern Ireland's most respected and ambitious firms, this is an opportunity you won't want to miss.
