A dynamic Legal 500/Chambers UK accredited regional team led by a dedicated restructuring and insolvency partner is looking for an Associate/Senior Associate. The team is principally based in the Southampton and London offices of Lester Aldridge which is a large regional solicitors' practice headquartered in Bournemouth. The firm has a notable reputation in the commercial work areas of Real Estate, Marine, Dispute Resolution, Charities and Healthcare.
The team handles good quality insolvency, restructuring and solvent reorganisation matters (both contentious and non-contentious), including:
Section 110 demergers, members' voluntary liquidations and corporate group simplification;
Debt restructuring, including restructuring plans, CVAs and negotiating with stakeholders;
Advice to directors on their duties;
Contingency planning;
Security reviews and enforcement of security;
Insolvency appointments;
Business and asset sales;
Advising insolvency office holders;
Procedural court applications;
Pursuing and defending insolvency claims; and
Advice to creditors of insolvent businesses.
A dedicated and enthusiastic additional team member is currently sought. The firm is focussed on finding the right candidate for the team and is therefore flexible on experience level, but the candidate should have a minimum of 6 years' PQE working within a dedicated restructuring and insolvency team (or predominantly on restructuring and insolvency matters). In addition, the candidate should be confident advising on insolvency transactions and enforcement of security, as well as have experience advising on a broad range of issues that typically crop up when acting for insolvency office holders.
Agile working was embedded in the team's culture prior to the pandemic. The firm is therefore willing to consider candidates on a full or part time basis and can offer flexibility in terms of working from home.
Package is competitive and tailored according to seniority. The firm is committed to being an equal opportunities employer.
