Construction Solicitor
You’ll advise on the UK’s most ambitious regeneration and development projects, working directly with decision-makers in the public and private sectors. From high-value residential schemes to social infrastructure projects, you’ll play a leading role in structuring deals, negotiating construction contracts (JCT, NEC), and advising on procurement strategy, joint ventures, and development frameworks.
What You’ll Do
- Act for local authorities, private developers, and housing associations on major development and regeneration schemes.
- Draft and negotiate construction documentation including building contracts, appointments, collateral warranties, and performance guarantees.
- Advise on procurement strategy, including alliancing models, JV structuring, and off-site construction.
- Collaborate closely with cross-practice teams across real estate, projects, and public law.
- Contribute to precedent development, internal know-how, and junior mentoring.
- 4+ years’ post-qualification experience in non-contentious construction law.
- Strong experience with JCT and/or NEC contracts, ideally with both residential and infrastructure clients.
- Solid understanding of procurement models and risk allocation.
- A practical, collaborative approach and confidence managing client relationships directly.
- Ability to manage and supervise junior solicitors in the team
- Advising on nationally significant regeneration schemes and public-private partnerships.
- A balanced, collaborative culture – no late-night or weekend culture here.
- High partner accessibility, structured training, and visible paths to progression.
- Strong presence across the UK and Middle East, including recent growth in the Gulf.
A leading international firm with a Tier 1 reputation in real estate and infrastructure. Recognised for its commitment to public sector partnerships, innovation in construction delivery models, and a standout associate experience.
- Year-end and performance-based bonus (10–20% typical range)
- 25 days holiday + buy/sell scheme + generous pension
