An incredible opportunity has arisen for a Solicitor looking to join a major international law firm in its Commercial Property department based in Leeds City Centre. Our client has a wealth of resources, a wide geographical footprint and an impressive array of clients including large corporations and multinational organisations. This is a really unique opportunity to move away from a directly client facing role and utilise your expertise to develop others. The Role
Your key responsibility will be supervising lawyers working across a vast array of Real Estate work - really shaping their knowledge and understanding. The firm deals with a huge range of clients across both the public and private sector, including top names within retail, utilities, investment, occupiers and development to name a few. The work is a real blend of local, Leeds and Yorkshire market property matters, coupled with national and London based work.
You will not be responsible for supervising matters from beginning to end - more in an ad-hoc manner, where a lawyer requires additional support and guidance on a particular point - you can really help them deepen their understanding.
You will play a key role in identifying ongoing training and development needs for the team and will be focused on the continuous improvement of the department.
There is plenty of opportunity to get involved in the wider 'life' of the firm, whether that be attending social events or getting involved in CSR or other projects within the firm. The firm works hard to develop and protect a great working environment and invests heavily in this.
The Candidate
This Leeds based team is seeking to recruit a candidate that will strive to succeed in a high performing and busy environment. Lawyers will ideally have at least 5+ years' PQE in Commercial Real Estate. Given the technical nature of the role, this is really the minimum experience level that would be suitable - you may be considerably more experienced.
Benefits
An amazing opportunity. You will work for a law firm that is well renowned and extremely reputable, particularly within commercial property. This is the one of the largest and most reputable teams nationally.
Top of the market remuneration and benefits package.
An opportunity to do something different, away from a typical fee earning role.
Truly fulfilling opportunity to help more junior lawyers learn and develop.
Leeds City Centre location and close to transport links. Lots of flexibility on offer, including hybrid working, and part time will be considered.
How to Apply
If you are interested in this Commercial Property Supervising Solicitor role, or would like to find out more about the opportunity please contact Sophie Linley at Sacco Mann or another member of our Private Practice team on 0113 236 6711. Alternatively, if you know of anyone who would be suitable for this role then please let them or us know as we offer a reward for successful referrals.
