REAL ESTATE FINANCE SOLICITOR / ASSOCIATE - MANCHESTER
Real Estate Finance Solicitor /Associate – This growing Manchester team is looking for a bright and ambitious Real Estate Finance Solicitor to join the expanding department. This is an international firm with a relatively small and collegiate Manchester team, looking to build its presence. The department hopes to be an attractive alternative to the top and mid-tier, offering excellent exposure to quality work with real potential for genuine career progression.
THE ROLE AT A GLANCE
- Job title: Real Estate Finance Solicitor / Associate
- Location: Manchester
- Salary: £40,000 - £55,000
- Reports to: Partner – Head of Real Estate
- Previous Experience: Real Estate Finance 1-5 PQE. You will ideally have a top or mid-tier background having gained good experience in general real estate finance / commercial property finance work.
A GROWING MANCHESTER TEAM OFFERING CAREER PROGRESSION
This role fits within the Manchester Real Estate Group of an international law firm. The team has traditionally been small and collegiate relative to other top and mid-tier offerings. However, this is set to change following a re-positioning of the team and a decision to grow the Real Estate department, potentially doubling its size.
The Manchester team acts for a number of key clients in the North West including listed PLCs, but also a number of particularly entrepreneurial SMEs. The work ranges from acquisitions and disposals to major development projects. As part of the general growth of the Real Estate team, the real estate finance / banking team is also set to expand.
Traditionally, the Real Estate team has always enjoyed a strong relationship with the specialist finance team in London. However, the Manchester Real Estate Finance team is now set to grow further and aims to position itself as a major alternative to the top and mid-tier. This, in turn offers a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious Real Estate Finance Solicitor or Associate to come in and help grow the practice group further.
CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS AND SKILL SET
Ideally, the team is looking for someone with between 1-5 PQE. You should come from a top or mid-tier background, having gained a solid grounding in finance / real estate banking work. This is a busy and relatively small commercial property team compared to the other departments in Manchester to be prepared to pitch in and hit the ground running.
It should be stressed, however that the quality of work and the on-going training is comparable to any of the leading firms in the North West. You will be involved in all aspects of the department, from fee earning to business development. Moreover, the role is aimed at those seeking genuine career progression. The size of the team and projected growth mean that those looking to bring their career on, will be afforded the opportunity to grow and develop.
A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY WITHIN A GROWING PRACTICE GROUP
If you are looking for a chance to take a step up and develop your career where your commitment and hard work will be recognised, this is an opportunity worth exploring. The salary package and suite of benefits on offer are designed to attract the best candidates, so if you feel you have the skills and the ambition to help drive this real estate team to further success, please apply to find out more.
