Commercial & Technology Solicitor

Opportunity: Commercial Solicitor 2-6 Years PQE

Location: Reading (Hybrid - 2 Days Per Week in Office)

Salary: 55,000 - 72,000 + Bonus

If you're a commercial solicitor who enjoys high-quality work but wants a genuinely supportive, human environment - this could be the move that changes everything.

This is an opportunity to join a highly ranked Legal 500 and Chambers firm with a standout reputation in the commercial and technology space. You'll be working with an impressive client base spanning international businesses, high-growth UK companies and innovative tech-led organisations, advising on complex, business-critical matters.

What sets this firm apart isn't just the quality of work - it's how they treat their people.

The Opportunity:

You'll join a collaborative and well-established Commercial & Technology team, working closely with experienced lawyers on a broad range of matters including:

• Commercial contracts and strategic advisory work
• Data protection and regulatory matters
• Supporting UK and EMEA operations of international clients
• Acting as a trusted day-to-day adviser to growing businesses

This is a role where you'll build real client relationships, not just churn through work.

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Genuinely supportive culture - approachable leadership and a team-first environment
• High-quality, varied work without the city firm burnout
• Clear progression with real investment in your development
• A firm that actively promotes work/life balance and flexibility, not just talks about it

What We Are Looking For:

• 2-6 years' PQE in commercial law
• Strong experience in drafting and negotiating commercial agreements
• Commercial awareness and confidence dealing with clients directly
• Someone proactive, personable and keen to be part of a growing team

What Is in It for You:

• Hybrid working (with real flexibility)
• 25 days holiday + option to buy more
• Private medical insurance
• Life assurance (5x salary)
• Pension scheme
• Birthday off + wellbeing hour each week
• Charity days + active social calendar
• Cycle to work scheme & season ticket loan

The Bottom Line:

If you're feeling like just another number where you are - this is a chance to join a firm where you'll be valued, supported and given space to grow, while still doing genuinely interesting, high-level commercial work.
