Head of Commercial – Markel Law
We are looking for a commercial lawyer to capitalise upon an existing strong client base. This is a great opportunity for either an established Commercial Partner, General Counsel or someone who is ready to take the step up to a Partner/ GC role and with a proven track record of successful client management.
We have an established presence across a broad range of sectors, including a particular immersion within the tech and health care sectors. Our clients range from SMEs to larger regional, national and international companies and comprise private, charitable and public sector businesses/organisations.
There is the backup and support that you would find in larger firms in terms of marketing, admin and business development, but you will be given significant autonomy and independence that you wouldn't necessarily find within national firms. You would have the opportunity to have an impact and be instrumental in establishing a department within an ambitious and growing firm.
There is a friendly office environment, and you will be surrounded by experienced, high-quality, respondent lawyers across commercial litigation, employment, regulatory and personal injury.
We’re all about people | We win together | We strive for better | We enjoy the everyday | We think further

Head of Commercial/Partner leading a team to deliver commercial legal services to existing clients, insured and non-insured.
