This can be fully remote and is a non-salaried position, but it is with an 80% share on a full or part-time basis. Join a Legal Firm on a highly attractive fee-sharing basis. Our client is a leading Law Firm seeking skillful Consultants to join on a self-employed basis. You will be joining on a non-salaried, profit-share basis. Working from home the financial split would be 80/20. PLEASE NOTE THIS ROLE IS NOT SALARIED AND YOU MUST HAVE CLIENT FOLLOWING TO OFFER THIS CLIENT The Firm: Our Legal client with offices across the Country combines a great heritage with a dynamic, modern approach, not only in the practice of law but also by utilising a highly innovative approach to recruitment. As a result, the firm has been very successful in attracting high-calibre lawyers to join the firm on a consultancy basis. Our client is now looking to extend this dedicated consultancy recruitment programme, offering experienced solicitors with a solid following of clients the opportunity to combine the prestige and security that comes from working with an established Legal 500 firm, which offers access to a wide range of clients including national and international clients, HNW individuals, and global organisations, with the freedom, flexibility and financial benefits of being Self-Employed. The Consultant Solicitor Role: You will be joining on a non-salaried, profit-share basis. Working from home the financial split would be 80/20; if you would prefer to work in the London City office, located close to Moorgate tube, then the profit share would be 60/40. Working as a Consultant Solicitor gives you the flexibility to plan your working hours, the freedom to take holidays to suit you, and your choice of location, should you choose to work from home. With no commute, and no requirement to attend office-based management meetings, you could use those hours more profitably to maximise your billable hours should you wish or focus on a better work-life balance with your family. Additionally, you can enjoy substantial financial benefits; for instance, the financial benefits that would accrue to someone with a following of 100k plus on a fee-share basis would far outweigh what you could expect to earn in a salaried role.
