I’m currently working with a leading national law firm looking to appoint a Legal Director within its Commercial Property / Real Estate team in Birmingham .

This is an exciting opportunity for a senior lawyer looking for a role combining high-quality development work with a strong focus on Landlord & Tenant, asset management and portfolio management .

• Acting for developers, investors, landlords, occupiers and corporate clients
• Advising on acquisitions and disposals of commercial and development property
• Handling a significant range of Landlord & Tenant matters , including leases, agreements for lease, renewals, licences and variations

• Managing complex and high-value transactions
• Developing and maintaining relationships with key clients and professional intermediaries
• Supervising and mentoring more junior members of the team
• Playing an active role in business development, networking and the continued growth of the Birmingham Real Estate practice
• Working collaboratively with Real Estate specialists across the firm’s national network

This is a senior appointment with the opportunity to have genuine influence over the future development of the team.

You’ll have the backing of the wider Partnership and dedicated Business Development support , providing the platform to grow existing relationships, develop new opportunities and continue building your own profile within the Birmingham property market.
