Senior Property Lawyer – 4-10 PQE
Managed Legal Services/International Law Firm
Birmingham, Manchester or Leeds
Hybrid: 3 days in office/ 2 days working from home
I'm working with a leading legal services business that is looking to hire a Property Lawyer at 4-10 PQE to join its growing Managed Legal Services (MLS) team.
This is a great opportunity for a commercially minded property lawyer who wants to move away from the traditional law firm model and get more involved in long-term client relationships, high-quality legal work and innovative ways of delivering legal services.
You'll work closely with major clients on a broad range of commercial property matters, particularly around property asset management and real estate finance, acting as a trusted adviser and taking ownership of your own work.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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 be involved in:
- Advising clients and working closely with their legal, estates and operational teams
- Drafting, negotiating and managing a broad range of commercial property matters, including leases, licences, variations, surrenders, extensions and consents
- Advising on real estate finance matters, including certificates of title, charges, searches, officer's certificates and legal opinions
- Managing matters from start to finish and providing commercially focused, practical advice
- Building strong, long-term relationships with clients
- Working collaboratively with lawyers and colleagues across the wider business
- Supporting process improvement and new technology-led ways of working
- Mentoring and supporting more junior members of the team
You'll ideally be:
- A qualified solicitor in England & Wales with 4-10 years' PQE
- Experienced in commercial property, ideally with a strong asset management background or real estate finance
- Comfortable working across a large property portfolio or complex client account
- A confident drafter and negotiator
- Commercially minded, with strong client and stakeholder management skills
- Comfortable taking ownership of your work and working autonomously
- Interested in legal technology and alternative ways of delivering legal services
- Experience of commercial acquisitions or plot sales would be advantageous but isn't essential.
