The team is highly established within Leeds City Centre and many of the lawyers within the team and the firm have previously worked at the 'big 6' firms in Leeds, meaning you are will be surrounded by some really good quality lawyers.

The team is renowned for the comprehensive and in-depth knowledge they provide to their wide ranging clients, as well as their ability to handle with complex matters and issues with a modern edge.

The firm itself works across private, public and third sector organisations, however this team largely focus on private sector work. This is a really great opportunity to increase your knowledge and build your client base.

The Role

You will be taking on broad and mixed range of commercial property matters including acquisitions and disposals, landlord and tenant matters, property leases and development agreements - pretty much everything that falls within the commercial property umbrella. Your clients will also range from development companies and banks through to property owners and occupiers as you will be handling almost purely all private sector work.

You will primarily be supporting the partners in the team on their work, but will also have the opportunity to run your own transactions.

This role will offer you broad client development and you will be highly exposed to clients and networking within your role, although not expected to bring work in at this stage.

The Candidate:

Ideally, you will have around 1-3 years post qualification experience and you will have a solid range of Commercial Property experience behind you. You will be commercially minded, as well as having a keenness for continuous progression and developing your skills.

The firm really values candidates with personality and character and the team is renowned for being friendly and the firm is a genuinely nice place to work.

Ideally, you will already have gained experience of essentially leading some of your own transactions, as well as supporting other colleagues in the team on these.

Benefits:

This role will offer a competitive salary and benefits package to the chosen candidate, as well as the opportunity to work within a really great firm alongside some genuine specialists and top lawyers in Leeds.

If you would like to apply for this role then please contact Rachael Mann or another member or the Private Practice team at Sacco Mann.

Company

Sacco Mann are specialist Legal Recruiters recognised as regional experts with a genuine interest in, as well as knowledge of, their marketplace. We are renowned for giving clear and straightforward career advice and true quality of service.

We have thirteen experienced consultants focussing on legal recruitment, encompassing the Commercial, General Practice, Public Sector and In House positions, both permanent and locum. In addition two consultants specialise within the Patents and Trademarks sector.

- try to accurately guage and understand what both candidates and clients require and indeed that which they are able to offer and then bring the two together

- discuss each role with you thoroughly and get prior clearance before a CV is submitted. This is an extremely important for protecting confidentiality and avoiding duplication
- brief you fully prior to any interviews, ensuring that you know what the role entails and how the interview will be run. We also give you honest interview feedback - if you don't do very well in an interview you can always learn from the experience
- are accessible and return your calls
