As the leading nightclub operator in the UK and a listed company, the search for a Director of Legal and Company Secretary was obviously of key importance and an excellent opportunity for any lawyer interested in the sector.

The role called for an unusual mix of skills as the successful candidate needed to have a background in both corporate and M&A work as well as real estate and licensing. Management skills were also key with regards to both internal and external contacts.

Through an open advertising campaign and careful selection, a shortlist was presented in line with the clients needs. The process revealed two clear front-runners.

Our client offered the role to a candidate who had already spent many years in-house with a leading corporate, dealing with a broad remit of work.
