Job description

Working as part of a full-service national law firm means that there's systems, processes and structure for you to fall into from day one.

As a 1-5 PQE Real Estate Associate at this firm, you'll get a clear career progression path and be joining a firm on a growth trajectory.

This law firm has doubled their headcount in the last 12 months and has ambitions to be a top 100 UK law firm. They were recently ranked in both the Legal 500 and Chambers and have s solid reputation. Especially within real estate, which is one of their core practice areas.

Your professional development is taken seriously. Not just talked about. Your voice is heard and your contribution is recognised.

You'll have access to senior people, including the leadership team, senior partners and clients.

You can expect quality work with nationally recognised clients such as landlords, developers, lenders and commercial tenants.

You will work on a range of commercial real estate deals.

You will be running your own transactions from instruction to completion: sales, purchases and leases (landlord and tenant). You'll therefore become a well-rounded Commercial Real Estate Solicitor, which is exactly what your clients will be looking to you for as their trusted legal advisor.

Though you'll be doing so with close supervision and with support of the wider national real estate team behind you.

You'll have a real work-life balance in a relaxed, client-focused culture. There are no billable hour targets and you won't be expected to work evenings or weekends.

Generally, you'll be expected to go into the office 3 days a week.

What you'll need

• Qualified as a Solicitor in England & Wales
• Property experience gained in a law firm.
