Fry and Brown is offering a rare opportunity for a talented lawyer to join their in-house legal team in London, focusing on M&A advisory. You will be directly involved in client-facing M&A transaction agreements and responsible for managing your deal portfolio from start to finish.

The ideal candidate will be a qualified solicitor with up to 5 years of post-qualification experience, eager to learn and adapt in a dynamic environment. A collaborative and respectful culture awaits, along with structured training and exposure to high-profile transactions.

This is a rare opportunity to join the in-house legal team of a global financial services organisation specialising in M&A advisory. Our client is a well-established and highly regarded specialist in the M&A space with a global footprint and an ambitious European growth strategy. The organisation has built its reputation on doing complex, high-value transactional work to an exceptional standard and is looking for a talented, driven lawyer to join a small, high-performing transactions team.

You will work directly on client-facing M&A transaction agreements. From instruction through to signing, you will own your deal portfolio — reviewing and negotiating agreements, managing client relationships, and solving complex legal issues in real time. You will be working on sophisticated, high-value transactions, negotiating directly with partners and senior associates at leading international law firms, and building a deal sheet that genuinely reflects the quality of work you have done.

We are deliberately open-minded about background for this role. The team has had its best results hiring sharp, motivated lawyers who want to learn and grow — not those seeking an easy exit from private practice. Whilst a corporate transactional background is an obvious fit, even those from a contentious background have succeeded in the past. You will be well-suited to this role if you are a qualified solicitor with 0 to around 5 years' post-qualification experience. You should thrive with autonomy, taking ownership of your work, and having a client servicing mindset. You should be resilient and adaptable, with a high tolerance for fast-moving deal timelines and the occasional unsociable hour that M&A demands. In return you will receive structured, supportive training and quality deal exposure throughout your career without micromanagement. You will receive direct exposure to major, publicly reported M&A transactions — and the professional network that comes with it. Culturally this is a collaborative, respectful team where talented people are trusted to do great work.
