The London associate market is moving, with a number of firms actively hiring across transactional, finance, regulatory and contentious practices.
We are currently working on vacancies with firms ranging from specialist boutiques and high-quality UK practices through to Silver Circle, Magic Circle and leading US firms.
Some of the strongest demand is currently across:
• Corporate M&A & Private Equity
• Private Funds
• Financial Services Regulation
• Tax
• Commercial Real Estate
• Real Estate Finance
• Leveraged Finance
• Structured Finance & CLOs
We are also seeing a growing requirement for associates across Competition and Commercial Litigation, as firms continue to invest in these areas.
The opportunities vary considerably. Some teams are looking to build around established practices; others are investing in London growth, creating scope for associates to join at an early stage and take on greater responsibility.
We are speaking with lawyers across a range of PQE levels, whether you are actively considering a move or simply want a clearer view of where demand sits in the London market.
If you would like a confidential conversation about the firms hiring in your practice area, current salary levels or how your experience is likely to position you in the market, please contact harrisonstiles@hydrogengroup.com
