Join a market-leading Projects & Construction team in London advising on large-scale real estate development, infrastructure and energy projects. The role offers hands-on experience across both development and real estate finance work, with exposure to site acquisition, development structuring, construction documentation, forward funding, refinancing and joint-venture arrangements.

You will draft and negotiate development agreements, construction contracts, collateral warranties, funding and security documents, and contribute to complex, high-profile transactions. The team acts for developers, funders, public-sector bodies and contractors on nationally significant and international schemes.

This is a supportive environment with strong mentorship, clear progression, and flexible working options. The role suits a commercially minded solicitor who wants responsibility on substantial matters while working collaboratively across offices and practice groups.
