At Realm Recruit, we work with a number of leading real estate teams at firms across Manchester, Cheshire, the wider North West, Yorkshire and the West Midlands, ranging from regional practices to national full-service law firms and international heavyweights.
We recruit for commercial property roles at all levels, from paralegal to partner, helping develop the careers of solicitors and supplying law firms with the right talent to help them grow sustainably.
If you’re a real estate solicitor looking to make a move, or a firm looking to grow your team, get in touch with our specialist in real estate recruitment, Layla Jackson. Call 03300 245 606 or email layla.jackson@realmrecruit.com.
“I am a Senior Consultant at Realm specialising in the recruitment of non-contentious lawyers, including company commercial, corporate, real estate and employment solicitors.
I have a wealth of legal recruitment experience and joined Realm in November 2023, after working at some of the leading recruitment agencies in the North West.”
Our narrow but deep focus allows us to get to know the real estate lawyers and law firms we work with properly. Here’s why our specialist approach will benefit you in your job search...
We'll explain not only who is actively recruiting within commercial property, but also who’s looking to grow and the salaries and benefits on offer.
Because we’re ultra-niche, we have access to exciting opportunities that might not be advertised.
Our understanding of the commercial property market means that we are well-placed to offer you fair and honest advice.
Lucy has been great throughout the whole process. She really listens to what you are looking for and makes real effort to make sure you are matched with the right firm. Lucy is very dedicated and very easy to talk to. I would definitely recommend Lucy to everyone who seeks a new venture.

I could not have had a better experience with Realm Recruit. Within a week of speaking with Paula for the first time, I was accepting my position at my new firm. I would recommend Realm and Paula to anybody looking to make a career move.

Kelly's knowledge of the private client market on a local and national level was invaluable. She was approachable and open throughout the process and I would happily recommend Kelly to anyone considering their next career move.
Helen Gott
Senior Associate
I can't thank Kelly enough for all her help and support in getting me my new role. I was at somewhat of a crossroads and looking to make a bit of a non-conventional move by swapping specialisms which is difficult enough on its own never mind during a global pandemic. Kelly really took the time to find out what I wanted from my next role and helped find firms which matched that. She knows the private client industry exceptionally well and truly is excellent at her job. she was prompt with her feedback and so helpful during the entire process from CV to interview and negotiation of terms. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her to any firms or solicitors looking for their next employee or next role. Thanks again Kelly!
