Job Description:

We’re partnering with a leading Silver Circle law firm in London on an exciting opportunity for a Knowledge Lawyer to join their well-established Construction & Engineering team.

This is a unique opportunity for either an Associate seeking to transition into a knowledge-focused role or an experienced Knowledge Lawyer. The ideal candidate will have at least 4 years’ PQE in non-contentious construction law. Applications are welcomed from both in-house and private practice professionals. The firm prefers someone to work a 4-day week.

The practice is development-driven, advising high-profile clients including developers, investors (such as L&G, Stanhope, CIT, and Realstar), occupiers, funding institutions, and banks. Their work covers a broad range of commercial projects, including offices, hotels, residential blocks, and retail developments.

The role of a Knowledge Lawyer has evolved from behind-the-scenes support to a visible, strategic position involving direct client interaction. Responsibilities include managing and developing know-how and precedents, contributing to client-facing publications, supporting training initiatives, and collaborating with other knowledge lawyers to share insights and best practices.
