If you want quality regional work, sensible expectations and a friendly, and down-to-earth culture, this could be a great move.

  • NQs considered only if they have strong prior commercial property experience
  • Ability to run matters with appropriate supervision

  • Down to earth, energetic and ready to get stuck in

  • Running a mixed commercial property caseload
  • Advising on acquisitions and disposals, leases and general landlord & tenant matters
  • Supporting on real estate finance transactions
  • Building up to consistent billings
  • Attending local networking and business development events
  • Contributing to the team’s long-term growth plan

Salary & Benefits

  • Competitive salary
  • Hybrid working – typically 3 days in the office, 2 from home
  • Very reasonable billing expectations
  • Clear progression pathway
  • Strong job security within a long-established regional firm
  • Friendly, non-corporate environment with no long-hours culture
  • Genuinely meritocratic, progression based on contribution, not background
  • Regular team initiatives and social events (including firm-wide wellbeing days)
  • Established full-service platform with strong regional reputation

This is a firm where people stay. They combine solid, good-quality work with a culture that values life outside the office.

If you want strong regional work, sensible targets and real room to grow, without sacrificing your evenings, this is worth exploring.
