Cyber Incident Response Principal Associate
This is not another practice group in a traditional firm - it's a high-performing business within a business, combining legal expertise with digital forensics, threat intelligence, and cyber risk engineering.
If you want meaningful responsibility, the chance to grow something, and a clear path toward partnership or leadership, this is that moment.
What You'll Do
- Lead and manage a caseload of complex data-breach and cyber-incident matters, including live ransomware events and regulatory investigations.
- Act as a trusted adviser during active crises — providing clear, strategic legal guidance under pressure.
- Supervise and mentor junior lawyers while helping shape the direction of the team.
- Work alongside leading experts in digital forensics and threat intelligence to deliver fully integrated incident response.
- Contribute to new products, knowledge, and thought leadership in a rapidly evolving field.
- Support business development and client-relationship initiatives that will accelerate your route to partnership.
- Qualified solicitor (5+ PQE) with hands-on experience in cyber, data-breach or regulatory incident work.
- Commercially astute with the confidence to manage C-suite and insurer clients in high-stakes situations.
- Comfortable operating in fast-moving, crisis-driven environments.
- Exposure to the cyber insurance market or coverage work (desirable, not essential).
- An entrepreneurial mindset — someone who sees the opportunity to build, not just maintain.
- Step into a senior position acting as the right hand to the Head of Incident Response.
- Genuine path to partnership once you've proven yourself.
- Join an established but fast-scaling team doing work that's both intellectually challenging and commercially significant.
- Access to cutting-edge technology, resources, and training across cyber, data, and risk.
- Competitive remuneration (up to £120k) with flexibility based on experience.
