Social Housing Solicitor - Housing Management
Birmingham | NQ-3 PQE | Hybrid Working | Competitive Salary + Excellent Benefits
Are you a NQ-3 PQE Solicitor looking to build your career within a highly regarded Social Housing team? I'm working with a leading national law firm that is continuing to invest in its Birmingham practice and is looking to add a Solicitor to its established Social Housing team. This is a great opportunity for a Housing Management lawyer to gain exposure to high-quality work, work closely with experienced specialists and develop strong relationships with a leading client base of Registered Providers.
The Opportunity
You'll advise Registered Providers across a varied caseload of Housing Management and litigation matters, with the support of an experienced and collaborative team. The role will give you plenty of client contact and the opportunity to take ownership of your own matters as your experience develops, with a clear focus on your longer-term progression.
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.

- Possession proceedings and tenancy enforcement
- Anti-social behaviour and injunctions
- Housing management litigation
- Tenancy and leasehold disputes
