Expire in: 24 days
Opportunity: Company & Commercial Solicitor - 3+ PQE
Location: Bath (Hybrid & Flexible Working)
Hours: Full time or 4 days a week
Salary: Up to £90,000 DOE
The Opportunity:
Are you a commercially astute solicitor who wants to do high-quality corporate and commercial work without sacrificing your work/life balance?
This is a standout opportunity to join a well-established and growing team at a progressive regional firm, working with a diverse client base - from owner-managed businesses to larger regional corporates - across M&A, restructures, shareholder agreements and commercial contracts.
You'll join a firm that genuinely lives and breathes its values - with clear, proven career progression, flexible working and a supportive culture where you'll be trusted to shape your own career path. Whether you're looking to specialise further, broaden your work or take on a leadership role longer term - the scope is here to mould the role to your strengths and interests.
The Role:
Handling a varied caseload of company/commercial work including business sales & acquisitions, shareholders' agreements, restructures, and commercial contracts
Advising SMEs and regional corporates directly, becoming a key contact and strategic advisor
Working autonomously while also collaborating on larger transactions with the wider team
Playing an active role in mentoring junior colleagues and contributing to business development
Helping shape the team's growth and offering across the South West
What We Are Looking For:
A qualified Solicitor or Chartered Legal Executive with 3+ years' experience in company and commercial law
Strong technical ability and commercial acumen
A confident communicator and natural relationship builder
Proactive, collaborative and motivated by high standards - but seeking a culture that also values balance
What Is in It for You?
This firm is proud of its clear progression structure - with real examples of Associates progressing to Partner in five years. You'll have support, mentoring and full autonomy to grow.
You can also expect:
Hybrid working & flexibility across offices
Sabbatical scheme - a month off after every 5 years of service
Discretionary bonus scheme
25 days holiday + birthday leave + Christmas closure (plus bank holidays)
Private medical insurance
Enhanced parental leave
Paid volunteering days
Professional development & study support
Regular team socials and a genuinely supportive team culture
With lower billable targets than commercial firms, the focus here is on quality over quantity and ensuring you have time to switch off and thrive both professionally and personally.
