🏢 Commercial & Residential Property Solicitor – Legal 500 Firm (Richmond)

📍 Location: Richmond
📈 PQE: 2–6 years
💼 Type: Full‑time, permanent
💰 Salary: Competitive + strong progression pathway

🌟 Overview

A highly respected Legal 500 firm in Richmond is seeking a Commercial & Residential Property Solicitor to join its established and growing Real Estate team. This is a standout opportunity to work within a modern, forward-thinking practice known for its supportive culture, high-quality work, and genuinely progressive attitude towards business development.

If you’re looking for a role that blends autonomy, quality clients, and a collaborative environment, this is it.

📝 The Role

You’ll manage a varied caseload with a strong commercial property focus, supported by some residential work. Typical matters include:

  • 🏬 Commercial leases (landlord & tenant)
  • 🏗️ Acquisitions, disposals & development work
  • 📁 Portfolio management
  • 🏡 Residential sales & purchases (mid–high value)
  • 📜 Title reviews, refinancing & general advisory work

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

You’ll work closely with approachable, commercially minded partners who value initiative and support long-term career development.

💡 Why This Role Stands Out

  • 🏆 Legal 500 quality: High-calibre commercial property instructions.
  • ⚖️ Balanced caseload: Predominantly commercial with some residential for variety and workflow stability.
  • 🤝 Modern culture: Collaborative, supportive, and free from old-school hierarchy.
  • 🚀 Business development friendly: The firm actively encourages BD and gives you freedom to build relationships without pressure or unrealistic targets.
  • 📈 Clear progression: Transparent pathways to advance your career.
  • 🌿 Work-life balance: Sensible, grown-up approach to flexibility and workload.
