This is an excellent opportunity for someone ambitious who wants to build a career in residential development within a regional legal practice that will actively invest in your growth. This is an exciting opportunity to step into a specialist area of property law, working on high-value, deal-driven development matters with strong client exposure and genuine scope for long-term progression.
The role sits within a busy and collaborative commercial property team advising landowners, promoters and developers on complex residential development projects. You'll support senior lawyers on a wide range of strategic land transactions, gaining hands-on experience across option agreements, promotion agreements, conditional and unconditional sales, overage and clawback structures, as well as site acquisitions and disposals.
Day to day, you'll be involved in drafting legal documentation, assisting with due diligence and title review, progressing post-completion matters, and handling Land Registry applications. You'll also liaise directly with clients, agents, lenders and other advisers, giving you valuable early exposure to the commercial and relationship side of development work.
As you develop, you'll also gain experience in development finance transactions and play a part in supporting wider team initiatives and business development activity. The role is designed to build both your technical expertise and your confidence in managing increasingly complex matters.
We're looking for a qualified solicitor with at least 3 years' PQE in commercial property, strong drafting skills and a solid understanding of transactional work. You'll be commercially minded, detail-focused and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.
In return, you'll receive a strong benefits package, including pension, life assurance, health cover and additional flexible benefits, alongside genuine support for your professional development.
