Legal
It is becoming increasingly difficult to attract highly qualified lawyers (f/m/d). Demand is high – the supply of lawyers who meet the hiring criteria of well-known law firms and boutiques is limited. As a result, the law firms pay extraordinarily high salaries at all levels. Starting salaries of € 160,000 to € 200,000 per year and Partner salaries of € 1 to 3 million are the reality at Magic Circle law firms. However, this also requires an extraordinarily high amount of work (1,800 to 2,000 billable hours per year).
Companies are increasingly having problems recruiting top lawyers with several years of professional experience at a top law firm for their internal management positions (Chief Legal Officer, Head of Legal, Head of Compliance, etc.), even though they have a significantly lower workload and greater flexibility (part-time work, home office, overtime compensation, etc.) to attract high potentials.
A look at the market shows that top lawyers are rarely actively looking for a new job and are only willing to talk to professional headhunters if they provide attractive job offers.
We look forward to hearing from you.
