Commercial Property Solicitor

Commercial Property Solicitor

£45,000–£55,000 DOE | Flexible/Hybrid Working

You have qualified, built a solid foundation in commercial property and now need a firm that will let you develop, rather than keeping you permanently attached to someone else’s files.

A modern and expanding Essex practice is looking for a Commercial Property Solicitor with around 1–2+ years’ PQE. An experienced commercial-property paralegal who can demonstrate comparable ability will also be considered at an appropriate salary level.

What’s in it for you?

• £45,000–£55,000 for qualified applicants
• Flexible and hybrid working
• 26 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays
• The office closes between Christmas and New Year
• Pension scheme and Medicash health cash plan
• Professional training and development
• Discounted parking
• Regular team get-togethers
• Genuine scope to progress quickly as the department grows
• A reportedly unreasonable quantity of office cake

The role

You will manage a varied commercial-property caseload while working closely with experienced colleagues. Matters will include:

• Commercial property acquisitions and disposals
• Landlord and tenant leases
• Lease assignments and surrenders
• SIPP purchases and leasebacks
• Option agreements for owners and developers
• Residential lease extensions and collective enfranchisement
• Building new relationships within the local commercial market
• Supporting departmental growth and wider business-development activity

You

You will ideally be a solicitor with 1–2+ years’ PQE and practical commercial-property experience.

Alternatively, you may be an experienced paralegal who can demonstrate strong technical knowledge and the ability to manage work with appropriate supervision.

You will also need:

• Clear and confident communication skills
• Strong organisation and attention to detail
• A proactive approach to client relationships
• High professional and ethical standards
• The ambition to take ownership of your development
• A positive, team-focused attitude

The firm has grown quickly without losing its personality. This is a good opening for someone who wants proper responsibility, approachable colleagues and visible career development.
