Our client is a long-established, mid-tier law firm with an entrenched developer client base. Their built environment sector group has been a leader for many years, with property, construction, planning, and disputes experts advising their loyal client base.
The missing piece of the puzzle is an energy specialist to advise their developer clients on the transition to net zero and decarbonisation. They especially have incoming instructions relating to the Energy Act 2023 and the expansion of Heat Networks.
They are keen to meet existing partners or senior associates who have a good grasp of Heat Networks, including regulatory and legislative issues relating to energy supply, generation, transmission, outsourced service agreements, connections, etc.
Experience in other renewable energy and power areas would be hugely helpful. For example, this firm has acted on the construction, real estate, and planning aspects of solar and battery developments, housing associations operating SmartGrid systems, connecting solar farms to the grid, and major decarbonisation projects.
The firm has very reasonable expectations regarding client following and has a long-term view of this hire. A major focus in year one will be embedding you in their client base and ensuring that the new expertise you bring is highlighted to all internal and external stakeholders. Longer term, you will have support to grow a team around you and a clear plan for your career development.
It's a well-run, progressive, and supportive firm that takes its responsibilities to new starters seriously, providing development and transition support to new lateral and promoted partners.
