Job description

Our client is an established real estate company and major presence across the UK and Europe in the multi-let industrial (MLI) arena– a growing sector of the market. They invest in a diversified portfolio of UK MLI with a market-leading tech platform to support the ongoing digitization of the real estate sector.

We are now carrying out a search to find a junior-mid level lawyer with a real estate/construction/development skill-set to join their office in Stockport, South Manchester and who will report to the Head of Legal, who is based out of the same office.

The successful candidate will shepherd the business as it continues to grow and carry out a broad legal role working closely with the other teams based in Birmingham and London.


More specifically, the role will involve:

  • drafting and negotiating specific contracts within the asset management and property management arms of the business, as well as for the development and construction team;
  • taking responsibility for the negotiation and drafting of commercial contracts, which may relate to asset sales, marketing, and technology matters as well as the general running of the business, for example supplier contracts, IT and SaaS agreements, professional services agreements…etc;
  • streamlining internal legal processes and assisting with the automation of contracts and legal processes;
  • assisting with any special transactional activity – including acquisitions, refinancings and or restructurings.


What skill-sets are we looking for?

  • A qualified real estate/construction/development lawyer with solid experience in property;
  • you may come from one of the top real estate law firms, or you may already be in-house in a real estate or related company;
  • good drafting skills, technically sound but with a strong commercial awareness;
  • the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and juggle priorities effectively;


In return, our client offers the chance to join a very friendly and supportive team, as well as a sociable and accessible work environment.

They will ensure you receive dedicated support from the outset as well as a competitive base salary with an annual discretionary bonus, pension, health and life insurance. A generous and flexible hybrid working model to work from home on a weekly basis is also on offer, if desired.
