About the Role

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Construction Solicitor to join the Cardiff office of a highly regarded national law firm.

• Developing strong relationships with clients and contributing to business development activity.

To be successful in this role, you will:

• Be a qualified solicitor at NQ-2 years’ PQE.

• Have completed a seat or gained experience in construction, projects, commercial litigation, real estate or another closely related practice area.

• Demonstrate a genuine interest in developing a specialist career in construction law.

• Have strong drafting, analytical and communication skills.

• Be comfortable working collaboratively across different teams and offices.

• Take a proactive approach to professional development and client service.

What You’ll Get in Return

• A flexible hybrid working arrangement.

• Exposure to sophisticated construction and infrastructure matters.

• Support from experienced senior solicitors and recognised specialists.

• A clear development pathway within a growing national practice.

• A comprehensive benefits package and flexible benefits options.

The firm promotes flexibility over where and when its people work and provides access to a broad range of national private and public sector matters.
