Manchester | Flexible Working | Strong Remuneration & Benefits
A progressive national law firm with a modern, client-centric approach is seeking a Partner or Legal Director to lead and grow its Data Privacy practice from its thriving Manchester office.
This is a strategic, high-profile opportunity for a senior data privacy specialist to shape the development of the firm’s offering in this fast-evolving area. The firm already boasts an enviable client base across a range of sectors, many of whom have significant data-related needs but are yet to engage fully with the firm’s privacy and data protection expertise.
The successful candidate will have the freedom to innovate, bring fresh ideas, and build something with real impact — all while working in a firm that genuinely values collaboration, flexibility, and forward thinking.
What the firm offers:
A leadership role in the growth of a key strategic practice area
A national platform with unified culture and strong internal support for cross-referrals
Access to a well-established client base with untapped potential in the data space
A flexible working culture focused on autonomy and work-life balance
A positive and inclusive working environment where initiative is encouraged and rewarded
Strong remuneration and benefits, with clear partnership progression pathways
Ideal candidates will bring:
Significant experience in data protection, privacy, and related regulatory matters (likely 8+ years PQE)
A strong profile in the market, with proven ability to build client relationships and win work from existing clients
Commercial insight and confidence to lead, advise, and shape a growing practice
A collaborative and strategic mindset, aligned with the firm’s modern and progressive ethos
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious lawyer to step into a leadership role with the autonomy to drive real change — within a firm that is both nationally respected and locally connected.
All enquiries will be treated in the strictest confidence. To find out more contact Rachael Mann on 011304677111 or at Rachael.Mann@saccomann.com.....Read more...
