• Manage your own caseload, ensuring compliance with firm policies and procedures, including drafting and negotiating leases, ancillary property documents, tenant due diligence enquiries, lease management applications, and assisting with due diligence on acquisition and disposal.
• Oversee transaction completion processes, maintain accurate matter status updates, and manage personal financial responsibilities, including WIP, billing, and write-offs.
• Supervise and support junior lawyers and paralegals, ensuring the delivery of high-quality work across lettings and property management matters.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with clients and external advisers, acting as a key point of contact and participating in client engagement activities.
• Collaborate with the wider client account team to share best practice, drive process improvements, maintain consistency of approach, and support wider real estate transactions as required.
