A lateral partner hire of this kind turns on what actually moves with you, far more than on any headline figure.

Lead partner role in a busy Riyadh practice combining restructuring/insolvency and regulatory/compliance matters. The role will advise corporates, creditors and stakeholders on insolvency restructurings and regulatory risk in the Saudi market.

The firm is seeking a commercial partner to grow and manage the practice locally: building client relationships, supervising fee-earners and delivering cross-border work with regional teams. This is an opportunity to shape a market-facing group in a major Middle East jurisdiction.

Portable book of business of $500k+ (USD)
Proven partner-level experience in restructuring/insolvency and regulatory compliance matters
Track record of originating and managing client relationships and leading teams on complex transactions or restructurings
Strong commercial judgment and ability to work with regional and international colleagues

Where the match is not obvious from the description, it is still worth a conversation — the specification tends to follow the practice.
