SOC 2431 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £50,200, and Freshminds is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 1139 (Functional managers and directors not elsewhere classified., If the role manages people/budgets as main job). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
About the role
We are partnering with a specialist advisory and executive search firm seeking an experienced legal-sector expert to join its Growth Advisory team. This role will play a key part in delivering high-quality advisory projects, enhancing the firm's legal-sector knowledge and propositions, and developing insight-led thought leadership to support its wider growth ambitions.
This is not a business development or origination role. The successful candidate will work closely with Partners, Directors and other client-facing colleagues who lead relationship management and new business activity. Success in this position will be driven by the quality of sector expertise, client delivery and intellectual contribution.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead defined workstreams on legal-sector advisory projects, with appropriate oversight from a Director or Partner.
- Manage day-to-day client relationships throughout project delivery, ensuring effective communication, stakeholder alignment and a consistently high standard of service.
- Develop and maintain a deep understanding of the legal market, including law firm economics, growth strategies, business models, talent trends, AI, legal technology and evolving client demands.
- Support project teams in framing key strategic questions, identifying relevant sources and interpreting legal-market developments.
- Contribute to the evolution of the firm's legal-sector advisory propositions, methodologies and reusable intellectual property.
- Produce high-quality analysis, insights and thought leadership that enhance the firm's position within the legal sector.
Ideal Candidate:
- 8+ years' experience advising on or working within the legal sector.
- Strong knowledge of the legal market, with demonstrable experience addressing legal-sector challenges and opportunities. Applicants do not need to be qualified or practising lawyers

Does this job guarantee visa sponsorship?
Not necessarily. Freshminds holds a sponsor licence, but sponsorship for a specific hire is always the employer's decision. Be upfront in your application that you'll require it.
What salary is needed for this role to be eligible?
The offer must clear both the general threshold and the SOC 2431 going rate of £50,200. New-entrant and shortage discounts can lower it.
