Commercial Property Solicitor (Partner) – Development & Investment

Role: Commercial Property Solicitor / Senior Associate / Partner
Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience

Commercial Property – Development & Investment | International Law Firm | Existing Following

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Commercial Property lawyer to join the highly regarded real estate team of an international law firm.

The firm is seeking a commercially minded property specialist with a strong background in development and investment work, together with an established client following or demonstrable ability to develop one.

This is an excellent opportunity for a lawyer who is looking to join a sophisticated real estate practice and take their career, client base and business development activity to the next level.

The Role

You will undertake a broad range of high-quality commercial property work, with a particular focus on:

Commercial property development
Investment acquisitions and disposals
Development funding
Site acquisitions and disposals
Portfolio transactions
Land assembly
Joint ventures and development structures
Strategic land
Commercial leases and associated matters
Acting for investors, developers, funds and corporate occupiers

You will work alongside leading lawyers across the wider firm, benefiting from access to an international client base and a strong flow of sophisticated real estate work.

The Candidate

The firm is keen to hear from Commercial Property Solicitors at Senior Associate, Legal Director or Partner level who have:

Strong technical expertise in commercial property
Significant experience of development and/or investment transactions
A commercially focused approach to client relationships
Excellent communication and negotiation skills
A strong track record of business development
An established following, transferable client relationships or a demonstrable ability to generate work
The ambition to play a significant role in the continued growth of the real estate practice

The firm is particularly interested in lawyers who have developed a strong network within the development, investment, funds or property sectors.

The Opportunity

This is more than simply another Commercial Property role.

You will join an international platform with the resources, reputation and client base to support ambitious lawyers, whilst having the opportunity to develop your own practice and play a key role in growing the team.

For an established lawyer with a following, the firm can offer a platform capable of supporting further growth, alongside the opportunity to work on complex, high-value transactions with sophisticated clients.

Interested in a confidential conversation?

If you are a Commercial Property lawyer specialising in development and investment and are considering your next move, I would be very keen to speak with you.

Please contact me Penny Trotman on either [phone removed] or my mobile [phone removed] for a confidential discussion about this opportunity and the wider market.

All enquiries will be treated in the strictest confidence.
