You will also take an active role in supervising and mentoring junior fee-earners, contribute to team business development, and work with legal tech tools to improve delivery and efficiency.

  • UK-qualified solicitor with 5+ years' PQE in commercial property / real estate.
  • Proven experience on transactional matters (sales & acquisitions, landlord & tenant, development/regeneration).
  • Demonstrable ability to manage a personal caseload and to support and supervise junior team members.
  • Strong stakeholder management, commercial judgment, and a proactive approach to business development; comfortable using legal technology.
