Remote Real Estate Solicitor

New Yesterday

I am working with a leading UK commercial law firm on a new instruction to hire two Real Estate Associates into a high performing Transactional team. These are newly created roles aligned to a major UK client, offering something a bit different from a traditional private practice setup. The Opportunity This role sits within a structured client delivery model, where you will act as a dedicated resource to a single, high profile client. It is a great option for lawyers who enjoy building deeper relationships and gaining genuine insight into a client’s business, rather than juggling a broad spread of smaller matters. You will work closely with a wider client account team and senior stakeholders, delivering high quality legal support while benefiting from the infrastructure, training and progression opportunities of a top tier firm. There is also a strong focus on work life balance, with more predictability around hours and the option to work largely remotely, with occasional travel to Leeds and infrequent client visits. The Role You will take ownership of a varied commercial property caseload, including:
Drafting and negotiating leases and ancillary documents Managing landlord and tenant matters and ongoing asset management work Handling tenant enquiries and liaising with external advisors Supporting on transactions including acquisitions and disposals where required Supervising junior team members and contributing to team delivery Maintaining strong client relationships and day to day communication Managing your own matters, billing and financials
The Team You will be joining a large and well regarded national Real Estate group, with a particularly strong presence in Leeds. The team is highly ranked, award winning, and known for its commercial, pragmatic approach. There is a clear emphasis on innovation, with investment in legal tech and modern delivery methods, making it a good fit for lawyers who are open to new ways of working. About You
Strong experience across landlord and tenant work Ideally exposure to institutional clients or high volume environments Confident managing a busy caseload within a structured team model Commercial, proactive and client focused in your approach
Why Consider It This is a genuinely different proposition for a Real Estate lawyer. You get the security, quality of work and progression of a top firm, combined with:
Greater client exposure and relationship ownership More predictable hours and improved work life balance The chance to specialise with a key client and build sector expertise Flexibility to work largely remotely
This is a rare opportunity, do get in touch to discuss as soon as possible. #J-18808-Ljbffr
