- Join a growing Commercial Property team with genuine opportunities to progress into Associate and beyond
- Manage high-quality Commercial Property work with achievable, tailored targets and Happy Hours
- Be part of a collaborative, people-first culture where career development is more than just a promise
If you’re looking for a Commercial Property role where your success isn’t measured purely by billings, this is an opportunity to build a long-term career with a firm that’s investing heavily in both its people and its future.
You’ll join one of the firm’s key strategic departments, playing an important role in its continued expansion. Whether you’re earlier in your career or already an experienced Commercial Property lawyer, the role can be shaped around your level of experience, giving you exposure to a broad range of quality work while allowing you to develop at your own pace.
Rather than operating in a high-pressure environment driven by unrealistic billing expectations, you’ll manage a caseload that’s designed to be sustainable. Targets are tailored to the type and complexity of your work, not imposed through a one‑size‑fits‑all model. If you’re handling complex, high‑value transactions, your caseload reflects that, allowing you to focus on delivering excellent outcomes without sacrificing your work‑life balance.
You’ll work within a dedicated pod alongside a paralegal and legal assistant, giving you the support you need to focus on fee‑earning while remaining closely connected to your team. Collaboration is at the heart of how the department operates, with colleagues regularly sharing knowledge, supporting one another and celebrating success together.
Career development is equally well thought through. Regular appraisals aren’t simply about reviewing performance; they’re genuine conversations about where you want your career to go and the practical steps needed to get you there. Many of the firm’s senior leaders started their careers in junior positions, demonstrating that progression is part of the firm’s culture rather than just a recruitment promise.
