Job Details

Are you an NQ solicitor looking for your first role in Commercial Property? Or are you perhaps already a Junior Solicitor looking to take the next step? Do you want to join an award winning firm? If so, then we have a great opportunity for you in West Yorkshire.

Our client is a vibrant and friendly practice and is one of Yorkshire's top regional law firms. The firm have a broad range of clients from large corporations to SMEs, medium-sized businesses and private individuals all over the country. They have developed their reputation and size by delivering tailored legal solutions to meet the needs of its clients, with strong endorsements and recommendations attracting new work and lawyers from the competition.

The firm are continuing to increase as they attract larger corporate and commercial clients who recognise the value they deliver and the expertise they offer across their core areas of practice. The commercial property department comprises of 6 partners plus six other lawyers and six support staff, this is a fantastic opportunity to work within a friendly and close knit team. The department covers various areas including Leeds, Harrogate and Ilkley, however this role will be based at their office in Bradford.

The role will involve working on a wide range of commercial property matters including site acquisitions and disposals, commercial leases, property finance and small business sales. Within the direct team you will be working with two partners, a junior solicitor and a paralegal. The focus market is Yorkshire, however as there are also many clients outside the region the work is not restricted by geographical boundaries. The work will largely be commercial property with an element of corporate residential property for a national charity.

The ideal candidate should have general commercial property experience and experience in retail, residential and commercial property, telecoms and charities would be an advantage, they are however happy to consider lawyers looking to move from residential property work into commercial property providing it has been within general rather than volume residential work. You will also have strong communication skills and some knowledge of business development with a good team ethic.

The successful candidate should ideally be between NQ - 3years' PQE, who has completed a seat within commercial property and has a broad experience of general commercial property experience. Our client would also be happy to consider applications from candidates who fall outside of this bracket, but can demonstrate the relevant skillset and passion necessary for the role.

So if you are an NQ Solicitor or a Junior Solicitor who is wanting to build your skillset and progress your career, this is a fantastic opportunity you do not want to miss out on, apply now!

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
