COMMERCIAL PROPERTY ASSOCIATE AND SENIOR ASSOCIATE - NEW TEAM

Commercial Property Solicitor – Associate and Senior Associate – New Team

COMMERCIAL PROPERTY ASSOCIATE / SENIOR ASSOCIATE - MANCHESTER 

Commercial Property Associate / Senior Associate – Two great opportunities have appeared at this highly regarded mid-tier corporate / commercial firm for a commercial property Associate and Senior Associate with a route through to Partnership. These lateral hires have come about due to a decision to expand the commercial real estate team following a re-organisation of the department.

THE ROLE AT A GLANCE

• Job title: Commercial Property Solicitor / Associate or Senior Associate
• Location: Manchester
• Salary: £45,000 - £65,000
• Reports to: National Head of Commercial Property
• Previous Experience: Proven commercial real estate experience with a particular focus on SME businesses and owner-managed developers and property companies. The team does deals with clients of all sizes, but are particularly interested in developing a focus on the small to mid-sized developers and managers in the market. Associates and Senior Associates who are looking for a real route through to Partnership should also apply.

FOCUS ON SME CLIENTS

This is a team which handles work of all sizes including development work with the major UK developers. However, a decision has been made to generate a real focus on their SME clients and cultivate a particular niche within the wider property team to service the needs of such businesses.

Furthermore, a re-organisation within the team has meant there is now a position for an experienced Associate, who has a firm eye on Partnership. The work involves the kind of mix of instructions one would expect whether it be acquisitions or disposals, landlord and tenant, development work and so on. The main concern is to really establish the brand among the mid-level players in the commercial property market place.

NATURE OF EXISTING TEAM

The emerging team is driven, energetic and highly entrepreneurial. The Partner who heads up this department wants to attract equally committed and passionate individuals who may already be developing a solid footing for themselves in this market, but who may be experiencing frustration as far as progression is concerned.

AN EXCITING DEPARTURE

Although this is an established law firm with a fantastic reputation in the market, this is something of a new departure in terms of this particular team. The aim is to attract real quality lawyers to help build the practice area and push things forward with a real focus on long-term client relationships.

This is a fantastic opportunity for any Associate or Senior Associate looking to join a new department with a fresh approach and real aspirations to be the dominant commercial property team at this level in the market.
