Job description

This international law firm has long demonstrated a genuine commitment to planning, treating it as an essential discipline that underpins the wider real estate and infrastructure offerings.

Within planning, the firm has historically sought to grow its partner ranks, but a recent departure has shifted the emphasis. This is, discreetly, a succession role, and the current head of planning is keen to press on with this recruitment.

There is a clear and immediate need for another planning partner, particularly to support the real estate lawyers. While there is existing work to service, the firm is looking for a partner with a modest following to complement and build on existing revenues. This is a rare opportunity to join a law firm where planning is not just supported but actively prioritised, and where the platform and team are well‑positioned for further growth.
