We are seeking a junior solicitor (ideally 0–2 PQE) to join an established Real Estate Development team in Nottingham. The role offers hands-on involvement in complex commercial development, regeneration, strategic land, and asset management matters across the lifecycle of development projects.

Working closely with an experienced partner and senior lawyers, you will support a varied client base on commercial and mixed-use schemes, logistics and industrial developments, and strategic residential land assembly. You will contribute from land assembly and acquisition through to funding, development, occupation, and disposal, while also supporting clients on investment property portfolios.

The team has an outstanding reputation in real estate development, strategic land, finance, investment, and joint venture matters. You will benefit from direct collaboration with experienced colleagues, early client contact, and a clear pathway for career progression, including a realistic route towards partnership. The role also provides access to a specialist non-legal property business, offering a distinct competitive edge in delivering commercially focused support to property investment and development clients.

Qualified, or expecting to qualify, as a solicitor or legal executive in commercial real estate in England and Wales.
Ideally 0–2 years' post-qualification experience.
Knowledge of development and strategic land matters is advantageous, including acquisitions, disposals, development agreements, joint ventures, finance, regeneration projects, and landlord and tenant work.
Clear communicator with strong legal analysis and attention to detail.
Proactive, commercially curious, and able to build strong client and colleague relationships.
Organised, dependable team player with a forward-thinking, pragmatic approach.
Genuine interest in development, strategic land, and the wider built environment.
