Job Details

An award-winning international law firm has an opportunity for a Real Estate Finance Solicitor with between 3 and 8 years pqe to join the team in Leeds. This position will work alongside senior team members, and will play a key role in supporting more junior lawyers, on a range of impressive domestic and international Real Estate Finance matters.

This is a dedicated Real Estate Finance practice and so offers you the opportunity to really become a specialist in this area of law, something which generally many firms can't offer regionally. The team works extremely closely with banking and core real estate with input from other practice areas such as construction and planning, so you will have lots of opportunity for internal networking across this major firm's national network. The team has extensive experience in advising on a range of domestic and international real estate finance transactions in a variety of sectors including investment, development, mezzanine and other structured financing. The practice is well known for investment finance and has market leading credentials in large scale development finance transactions. A lot of the work relates to big ticket London financing transactions and the team is rarely handling anything sub £10million, with transactions often stretching into the multi hundred millions.

What really sets this role apart from others is the quality of work you will be exposed to, which really is some of the best in the country. The firm will stretch your ability and allow you to progress your career as a true specialist. You will be a tenacious and energetic individual who is really committed to delivering a first-class service at all times, delivering solutions to clients which include high street banks and a range of alternative lenders.

In terms of technical experience, the ideal applicant will have strong core Real Estate experience and development experience in particular will be very beneficial. Exposure to Real Estate Finance would be brilliant for this role but the team fully appreciates that this is likely to have been a smaller part of your caseload, alongside more general commercial property work. It is anticipated that the successful applicant will have between 3 and 8 years PQE but this is simply given as a guide and candidates who fall outside of this bracket but who possess the relevant skills, experience and desire to progress their career in this area are of course encouraged to apply.

If you are interested in this role or would like to find out more on a confidential basis, please do get in touch with Sophie Linley or Rachael Mann at Saccomann on 0113 224 3338. Also, we are mindful that many people may be looking at adverts when they haven't actually decided to make a move, we are more than happy to help you understand the market so that you can make a more informed decision. We have great oversight of the market and can really help with this.

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.

We feel that much of our success has been due to the fact that we:

- 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
- have a demonstrable knowledge of the marketplace. Fundamentally what you need is not merely someone who can post your CV to a practice, but someone whose strength of contacts within the firms can add value, ensuring that you are given proper consideration
- 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

Why use Sacco Mann?

Principally because we believe that the points outlined above are fundamental. We enjoy recruitment, and we are good at it, because we genuinely enjoy assisting people make positive career moves. We don't shuffle paper because we know our marketplace and are therefore in a position to give reliable, knowledgeable and practical advice.

The vast majority of our applicants and clients are at pains to thank us for the advice and service that we provide and we believe the high level of referral business is a direct result of the fact that lawyers value our input.
