Job description

This top 15 UK law firm, known for its consistent financial performance and resilience across market cycles, operates as a single, integrated partnership across its extensive international network. Real estate has long been a core practice area for the firm, and its team of real estate lawyers continues to earn strong directory recognition.

In London, the real estate group is led by a dynamic duo who have successfully transformed the culture into one of genuine collaboration—where lawyers work and hunt together. The team is now looking to expand its leadership with a third partner to form a strategic trio at the helm.

The practice spans the full spectrum of commercial real estate work, from investment and development to asset management and occupier matters. The London team benefits from the ability to service lower-value mandates through the firm’s regional offices, allowing the City-based lawyers to focus on complex, high-value work.

This is an opportunity for a well-regarded real estate lawyer—or a team—to step into a leadership role within a law firm where property is politically and commercially important.
