  • Identifying risks and delivering pragmatic, commercially focused solutions

  • Developing strong client and referrer relationships, while supporting business development initiatives



The Person

We're looking for a proactive, forward-thinking solicitor with:

  • Significant commercial property experience and the ability to manage matters autonomously

  • A strong track record of building and maintaining client relationships

  • Excellent drafting and communication skills

  • Strong organisation and attention to detail

  • A practical, commercial mindset with the ability to problem-solve effectively

  • Willingness to engage in marketing and networking to grow the practice



Why Apply?
