A leading international law firm is making a significant strategic investment in its Private Equity offering and is seeking to appoint multiple Day One Partners in London as part of a high-profile build out.

This is a rare opportunity to join a firm at a pivotal stage of growth in Private Equity, with clear leadership backing, strong internal momentum and a platform designed to help you scale.

The Opportunity
The firm is looking to appoint several Private Equity Partners with strong client relationships and a proven ability to drive revenue. This role is ideally suited to individuals who are seeking a platform that will enable them to materially grow their practice, deepen client relationships and expand into new areas alongside their clients.

You will be joining a genuinely full service international firm with the depth and expertise to support clients across the full life cycle of private equity transactions, including access to high quality regulatory and specialist advisory teams.

Strategic Growth Area
Private Equity is a core focus for the firm globally, with significant investment committed to building out a market leading practice in London. You will be part of a cohesive and ambitious growth story with real traction.

Integration and Support
The firm offers a structured and well resourced lateral integration program, including senior sponsor support, alignment with key business services teams and regular check ins to ensure both you and your clients are successfully embedded from day one.

Culture and Collaboration
A collegiate, forward thinking partnership with a long term outlook. The firm places a strong emphasis on supporting laterals to succeed, fostering collaboration and enabling partners to build sustainable, high performing practices.

Strategic Vision
A clear commitment to strengthening and diversifying the partnership, with leadership actively invested in supporting growth across key practice areas.

The Proposition
This is a compelling opportunity for an Private Equity Counsel who is looking for more than just a upward move. The firm offers both the platform and the internal support to unlock further growth from your existing client base while providing the infrastructure to build something bigger over time.

The firm is open to exceptional Counsel who are ready to step into partnership on day one. If you have a demonstrable client following or are already operating at partner level but are constrained by timing, structure or headcount at your current firm, this represents a genuine opportunity to make that move now. The platform, support and strategic intent are in place to enable the right individuals to transition directly into a Partner role and build their practice with immediate impact.
