Our national Real Estate team of over 150 lawyers in the UK has the breadth and depth of experience to assist our clients with their entire Real Estate cycle. The team is big but it doesn't mean we've lost our personal touch.

We need people who are keen to be part of an ambitious team focused on growth and success, who are prepared to work hard and reap the rewards. Just as important though is the ability to have fun, to be inspired by the work you do and to enjoy the company of your colleagues. If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you.

You'll be working with an experienced team of Real Estate solicitors acting for a wide range of clients across a variety of sectors. You will be dealing with a multitude of Real Estate matters including sales and acquisitions, property finance, development projects and landlord and tenant transactions. In this busy team you'll be responsible for managing your own case load of Real Estate transactions and you'll support the team by drafting and negotiating legal documentation.
So what are we looking for?
To be successful in this role you'll need as a minimum:
- Completed your law degree or other legal qualification and/or have previously worked as a Paralegal, Legal Assistant or similar.
- Legal/non-legal work experience in Real Estate/property.
- Experience managing multiple workloads simultaneously.
What makes it great to work here?

We have an Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Group, led by our Board Sponsor, which works with our colleague networks (we currently have firm supported networks for race, ethnicity, and cultural heritage, LGBTQ+, disabilities, families, and women's career development and we're in constant dialogue with our people about how we expand our networks to better support everybody).
