  • A commercial mindset with the confidence to manage matters independently
  • An entrepreneurial outlook and interest in contributing to the growth of a boutique practice
  • Strong written and verbal advocacy skills, with the ability to run matters from start to finish
  • A collaborative approach, with the ability to mentor juniors and work directly with partners
What’s on Offer
