My client, a top tier central London boutique law firm, is looking for an Senior Associate to join their thriving and Legal 500 recommended Real Estate team! This firm is highly reputable and works closely with central Government departments, having become well know for their high quality work and good reputation. The role would include managing large and complex matters alongside team Partners and Jr team members, including major real estate, planning, and regeneration schemes within the public, infrastructure, telecoms and utility sectors. More typical matters also include acquisitions, disposals, and commercial L&T matters. While experience serving the public sector (including telecoms or infrastructure) is desirable, it is not essential.
