Director of Legal Services - Guildford, United Kingdom - DR Solicitors
Description
A fantastic opportunity for an experienced solicitor to take a leadership role as Director of Legal Services in a fast growing, national, specialist legal practice based in Guildford.
About the role
This is a full time role working closely with our highly experienced management team to help monitor and control all aspects of our legal services delivery. Your key responsibility will be to ensure we are developing and maintaining excellent relationships with clients by delivering high quality legal services, to a defined scope and budget, consistent with our exacting quality standards. You will be working with all of our colleagues to achieve this, including both our consultant solicitors and our employed business support team, and taking responsibility for the overall client relationships. There is a significant opportunity for further development within the senior management of this fast growing business.
The role includes:
About you
We are looking for an experienced solicitor to play a key role in helping to manage the delivery and further growth of our legal work. You will have:
The right candidate will be a self-starter and excited to join a small, high performing team that will value your contribution. You will have a passion for primary care as it is important that you quickly learn to 'speak the language' of healthcare. You will also have deep skills in one of the areas of the technical legal services we provide (probably commercial property, commercial or corporate), but your breadth and commerciality are more important than your specific legal domain.
About the firm
DR Solicitors is a fast growing specialist firm acting for Primary Care professionals nationwide, advising them on their business, commercial, regulatory and property matters. We are a niche, very highly regarded and award winning firm, widely recognised for our deep industry expertise and high levels of client service. The firm attracts high calibre lawyers and support staff to deliver challenging and complex work, and has a hard working but friendly culture. We encourage all our employees to advance their careers whilst they are with us and offer real opportunities to take on increased responsibilities and develop new skills.
Remuneration
We offer an excellent remuneration package commensurate with your experience and the role can be undertaken remotely for up to 2 days a week, should you wish.
