Job Description:

Are you tired of the demands of fee-earning targets and meticulous time recording? Are you experienced in Commercial Property law? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you as this leading regional firm's newest Real Estate Professional Support Lawyer.

Join this esteemed Tunbridge Wells office as a Professional Support Lawyer (PSL) and reap the benefits of a role focused on knowledge and research, rather than client interaction. As one of three knowledge lawyers in the team, you'll collaborate closely with other property law experts to provide invaluable guidance and support to this highly successful Real Estate department.

Your role as a Professional Support and Knowledge Development Lawyer will involve developing best practices, refining procedures, and overseeing training, along with supporting the department's business development efforts.

This is a varied department that covers the whole spectrum of Real Estate law, so it's desirable that you have a wide-ranging knowledge of property-related legal matters. Their teams include general commercial property, planning, agricultural or rural property, and more.

Here's what you can expect as a Real Estate Professional Support Lawyer:

• Escape Billing Stress: Say goodbye to billing targets and time recording pressures.
• Meaningful Impact: Continue making a genuine difference in people's lives through your expertise, without the stress of a client-facing caseload.
• Work-Life Balance: Enjoy a better work-life balance with the flexibility to carve your own schedule. This could consist of three full days or shorter stints across the week.

To excel in this Real Estate Professional Support Lawyer role, you should ideally:

• Have a minimum of 8 years PQE as a Commercial Property/Real Estate Solicitor, Lawyer, or CILEx/Legal Executive.
• Possess a strong desire to work as a Professional Support Lawyer, with a focus on Real Estate law.

If you have a keen interest in this area and relevant experience, regardless of your current title, we encourage you to get in touch.
