AG Transactional Real Estate Team Associate
As part of the delivery of asset management and investment work to our existing and new clients, the AG Transactional Real Estate team are looking to appoint multiple Associates to each act as a dedicated resource to a designated client within a structured delivery model.
You will be delivering legal services as part of a new and progressive delivery team model, using the latest innovative ways of working and embracing forward-thinking approaches to drive value.
Offering a real work life balance with increased certainty and flexibility in hours, the role can be office based or primarily home-based role with travel to our Leeds office at least twice per month (to be agreed depending on the level of experience of the individual(s)). There will be additional attendance required initially for training with the team and occasional visits to other offices to meet with the client so as to ensure that you feel part of the wider team.
This role offers the unique opportunity to focus exclusively on one major client, enabling you to develop deep sector expertise and build strong client relationships, while also benefitting from the comprehensive support, training, and career development opportunities available at Addleshaw Goddard.
Our Tier 1 ranked Leeds Transactional Real Estate team consists of 5 partners and over 50 fee earners, and they place a high emphasis on their transactional expertise, bringing a commercial and business-oriented approach to a wide range of property matters.
