Job description

Associate Property Solicitor | Residential/Agricultural focus | Tunbridge Wells | 3+ PQE

A rare opportunity has arisen for a residential property solicitor to step into a growing and highly regarded team, focusing on high-value agricultural and rural estate work alongside a respected Partner.

This Associate Rural Property Solicitor role is a chance to move beyond the expected, gain real exposure to premium rural property matters, and play a meaningful role in shaping the continued expansion of this well-known firm’s agricultural offering.

This leading firm is looking to add an Associate to its Residential Property team, working closely with the Head of Department on a mix of high-value residential and agricultural matters.

A dedicated agricultural background isn’t required; some exposure to rural property, combined with a genuine interest in developing this area, will set you up well for success in the role.

If you’re someone who enjoys variety and wants to build upon their expertise, this team will give you the support and platform to do just that.

What will this Associate Rural Property Solicitor role involve?

You’ll be working on a varied and high-quality caseload covering country houses, landed estates, and agricultural land transactions, often for high-net-worth individuals, families, and estate owners.

The work regularly involves high-value sales and purchases, complex title and ownership issues, and the opportunity to work closely with rural agents, surveyors, and other advisers to deliver seamless transactions.

Alongside this, you’ll continue to handle strong residential property matters, ensuring a balanced and interesting workload with genuine breadth and complexity.

For this Associate Rural Property Solicitor role, you will ideally have:

• Some exposure to agricultural or rural property matters
• At least 3 years of PQE
• Solid experience handling your own caseload of residential transactions
