You will advise on:
- Building contracts
- Professional appointments
- Collateral warranties
- Parent company guarantees and bonds
- Development funding agreements
- Development management agreements
- Construction aspects of real estate development and investment transactions
You'll also have the opportunity to:
- Manage matters from instruction through to completion
- Build strong client relationships
- Work closely with colleagues across multiple disciplines
- Mentor and support junior team members
- Play an active role in the continued growth of the construction offering
- About You
Applications are welcomed from solicitors with:
- At least 4 years' PQE in non-contentious construction
- Experience acting on real estate development and investment matters
- Excellent drafting and technical skills
- A commercial and pragmatic approach
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
Candidates from private practice, in-house or another professional services environment are all encouraged to apply.
Why Apply?
This is an opportunity to join an organisation investing significantly in its legal offering, with ambitious growth plans and an entrepreneurial culture.
You'll benefit from:
- High-quality, varied construction work
- A collaborative and multidisciplinary working environment
- Exposure to major UK and international clients
- Excellent career progression opportunities
- Flexible and hybrid working
- Competitive salary and benefits package
If you're looking for a role that offers high-calibre work alongside genuine career development in a modern and forward-thinking environment, we'd love to hear from you.
