An appointment at partner level in this practice turns on the portability of the practice, not on a headline number.

Senior partner hire to lead and grow a Doha-based practice, ideally within corporate work but flexible across transportation and maritime-related practices. The role will focus on originating and managing regional mandates, advising clients across corporate transactions, commercial contracts and sector-specific matters.

The partner will build and lead a small team, develop client relationships across the region, and work alongside international colleagues on cross-border instructions. Strong business development and market visibility in Qatar and the Gulf are important.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Established partner-level track record in corporate or transportation/maritime work with demonstrable origination
Admitted or qualified to practise in a relevant common law or civil jurisdiction, with entitlement to work in Qatar
Proven leadership experience, team management and business development capability in the region

If the brief does not read like an exact match, it is still worth a conversation — these mandates flex around the right practice.
