To £60,000
A new opportunity has arisen for a Commercial Property Solicitor NQ-2PQE to join a growing Cardiff office of an established UK law firm.
This is an opportunity to work closely with a leading Cardiff partner and become part of the team from an early stage as the new office develops.
The role would suit a solicitor who has gained some experience in commercial property and is looking for the opportunity to work on good quality matters, develop their technical skills and learn directly from an experienced partner.
The role
You will work closely with the Cardiff partner on a broad range of commercial property matters for a varied client base.
The work is likely to include acquisitions and disposals, landlord and tenant matters, development work, investment transactions, property finance and general commercial property advice.
You will have the opportunity to be involved in matters from the initial instruction through to completion, with increasing responsibility as your experience develops.
The role is intended to provide proper exposure to commercial property rather than being limited to administrative support. You will work directly with senior lawyers, have client contact and gain experience across a range of transactions.
About you
You will be a qualified solicitor with some experience in commercial property.
You may be newly qualified or have a couple of years’ post qualification experience and be looking for a move that gives you greater exposure to good quality work and experienced lawyers.
You should have a sound grounding in commercial property and be keen to continue developing your technical knowledge.
We are looking for someone who is:
- Commercially aware
- Well organised and able to manage deadlines
- Comfortable dealing with clients and other professionals
- Detail focused without losing sight of the wider transaction
- Keen to learn and take on responsibility
- A good communicator
- Comfortable working closely with a senior lawyer
- Interested in developing a long term career in commercial property
You do not need to have extensive experience across every aspect of commercial property. The important thing is that you have a solid foundation and want to build on it.
The Cardiff office
The Cardiff office is a new development for the firm and provides an opportunity to join at an early stage.
You will work closely with a leading Cardiff partner rather than being one of a large number of junior lawyers within an established department. That should provide a good level of exposure to the work, clients and decision making within the team.
For the right person, there is also scope to play a part in the development of the office as it grows.
The firm
The firm has an established reputation for handling quality legal work and has built its practice around strong technical expertise and long term client relationships.
Its people are central to the business, with an emphasis on recruiting lawyers who want to develop their careers and become trusted advisers to their clients.
The Cardiff launch represents an opportunity to bring that approach into a new market while maintaining the standards and quality of work for which the wider practice is known.
Why consider it?
For a junior commercial property solicitor, the attraction is the combination of quality work, direct access to an experienced Cardiff partner and the opportunity to join a new office at an early stage.
You will have the support of an established firm behind you while working in a relatively small local team.
There is also the opportunity to develop your own professional relationships as the Cardiff office grows, rather than joining an already established structure where progression and client exposure may be more limited.
