Corporate Solicitor - Manchester, United Kingdom - Sumer
Description
Sumer is a fast-growing business services platform that is dedicated to championing small and medium businesses, helping communities prosper, right across the UK and Ireland. This is a unique opportunity to join an ambitious team at the early stages of its journey.
In February 2024 we launched Sumer Law, the newest service line to sit alongside our rapidly expanding group of accountancy firms - collectively a top 15 UK accountancy practice. Corporate law advice is a foundational element of building out our legal services arm and this role will be instrumental in helping us define and grow an industry leading private practice proposition for SMEs.
Sitting at the juncture of Sumer Law, our accountancy hubs and our clients, this is a rare opportunity for a technically proficient yet entrepreneurial solicitor to not only deliver great outcomes for clients, but to help build a professional services business that champions SMEs right across the UK.
Based in Manchester and Bolton and working out of our regional accountancy hub on a hybrid basis, you'll support one of the strongest SME corporate finance teams nationally with client centric, corporate law advice.
Who we are looking for:
Key responsibilities:
Guide SME businesses through the delivery of pragmatic and fit-for-purpose corporate legal advice. In the short term and as a non-SRA regulated entity, you would offer only non-reserved legal activities to clients, but would be instrumental in our journey to becoming a fully SRA-regulated entity within the next 6-12 months.
Provide legal advice and guidance to SME and business clients on corporate matters, including:
What's in it for you:
Sumer: Building a firm for you
We are actively building diverse teams and welcome applications from everyone. If you're a person with a disability, if you're neurodivergent, or if you have a condition that you believe may affect your performance during our selection process, we'll be happy to make reasonable adjustments to our processes according to your needs.
