Remote
We are looking for a qualified solicitor (ideally from a corporate or commercial background) of at least 10 years PQE to take on a key role within our Client Services team. This is a full-time, exciting non-practising role where you will join other highly-experienced solicitors in ensuring our clients enjoy a great experience with us. The role will be largely home based with occasional travel for team and client meetings.
The successful candidate will be involved in several aspects of the business, in particular client services, supporting our solicitors, business development and marketing teams and play a key part in the next stage of the firm’s development.
Harper James is a national commercial law firm designed to support entrepreneurial businesses from start-up to exit. We aspire to disrupt the model for which legal services are provided to businesses. The firm’s innovative approach to delivering highly tailored and accessible legal advice is considered genuinely different to the establishment.
Harper James was founded in 2014 and continues to grow at c40%+ year on year. This financial year, more than 120 people will support more than 2,500 businesses and our turnover will exceed £13m. We expect to double in size over the next 3 years.
Our team usually work remotely but have access to meeting space in Birmingham, Cambridge, London, Manchester, Oxford and Sheffield.
We work really hard – and are doing more – to ensure our team still feel part of a team so they can collaborate, share ideas and enjoy each other’s company. The remote set up allows people to work from wherever they want, to give people the flexibility they need, for whatever reason. But, we want people to feel that they belong to an ambitious company and that their contribution towards our growth is recognized individually and as a team.
You must be able to manage, build and nurture successful client relationships and enjoy doing so. You will genuinely enjoy developing and supporting client relationships and not be afraid to suggest new ideas and approaches. A positive, can-do attitude is essential, along with a clear understanding of and commitment to the provision of best-in-class client service. You will enjoy working within a team but be happy to operate independently.
