New: Corporate Solicitor (NQ), £53,000, leading firm, Edinburgh
QED Legal
Glasgow, SCT, GB
Full Time
Job Description
- \n
- A genuine corporate NQ vacancy in Edinburgh - which, if you've been watching the market this year, you'll know is close to a rarity. The depressed market has required most 2026 qualifiers looking for corporate to take NQ roles in second or third-choice practice areas. \n
- This is a genuine growth hire - the team is winning a lot of new mandates and needs a junior with a passion for carving out a career in corporate. \n
- The work is weighted towards high-growth companies, private equity funds and their portfolio businesses - private M&A, fundraisings, buyouts and bolt-ons and restructurings. \n
- Hybrid working, and a team culture the firm is protective of - this is a place people stay and the firm has a very low attrition rate. You'll be working for a superstar Partner who is a great mentor. \n
- It's a strong first corporate job, and there aren't many of them about this year. \n
