JMW’s Commercial team in London has the pleasure of working with International and household names as well as more London and South East centric companies on a range of commercial and data advisory matters. 

The team has a wealth of experience in commercial arrangements across a wide spectrum of sectors and size of organisation, and they are now looking to recruit an Associate Solicitor (c.3-5 PQE) to grow the team further.

This opportunity will offer you a real range of work where you can expect to be involved with large complex agreements and manage your own caseload of varied matters. You will have a good level of autonomy and be confident in running cases with minimal supervision.

Your experience is likely to have been gained in a City or leading regional firm where you have had good experience working on a range of commercial contracts – negotiating, advising and drafting.  Previous data protection work would be desirable but not essential.

The successful candidate is likely to:

• Be between 3-5 PQE
• Have gained experience working in a city/west end or leading regional firm
• Have experience working on a variety of commercial contracts
• Be comfortable being client facing and building relationships
• Commercially minded
• The ability to assist with supervision of more junior members of the team

You can expect good client contact, where good work will be provided to you and you will be supported to network and build relationships.
