**Work remotely by default** & *Chose your path : stay delivery-focused or be developed to Appointment Taker*
Your new company
Our client is an independent UK firm with a decades-long reputation in Corporate Recovery and Contentious/Litigation. Teams are divided into functionalities, including a well-established and uniquely structured Business Development team. Due to a Manager deciding to move over to this BD function a team leader role for the core delivery team has arisen at the firm. The pandemic demonstrated to this firm that they could be successful and grow without a full return to the office, so you’d be working remotely by default and simply need to be available for any in-person client contact needed.
While the HQ is in London, there is the ability to be based anywhere in England or Wales as long as you can come in for any necessary client meetings. There are regional hubs that you can be based from as well, as necessary.
