Legal Director OR Partner - #1721384

Legal Director OR Partner – Cardiff

We are advising a range of leading Global, Top 50 UK National & Chambers Ranked Regional firms on senior Lawyer recruitment, as they look to grow through the acquisition of Legal Directors (LD) & Partners.

Over the years, we have supported many Senior/Managing/Principal Associates & LDs in securing the next steps in their careers—whether into an LD role with a Partner track or directly into a Partner position. We also facilitate headline lateral Partner moves into some of the most progressive practices in the UK.

While most firms aim to strengthen their core practice groups, some are now seeking Partners to diversify their offerings and establish new practice areas, providing team move opportunities.

We have a proven track record in launching new groups; in recent years, developing teams to L500 recognition within 12 months and expanding headcount fivefold in under 18 months.

Recent Partner Moves include:

Private Client Partner – Top 50 UK Firm; Employment Partner – Global Firm; Banking & Finance Legal Director – Global Firm; Commercial Litigation Legal Director – Top 50 UK Firm; 2x Corporate Legal Directors – Global Firms & more.

We currently have active LD/Partner instructions across:

• Real Estate


• Construction


• Disputes


• Corporate


• Employment


• Data/Privacy


• Commercial/IP


• Private Wealth


• Family


• and more.

If you are at 8PQE or above and feel you are not receiving sufficient progression, investment, or development, now is an excellent time to assess your options and explore what the market has to offer.

We can advise you on opportunities that match your criteria and provide updates on firm requirements and growth plans.

All calls are confidential, and no CV is needed. We have direct instructions from Managing Partners and can share full details of remuneration (Salary, Fixed Share, Equity), Partner structure, and growth plans before you consider any process.
