Job Description

Real Estate Lawyer Birmingham City Centre High-Exposure Role

I'm working with a well-regarded Birmingham city centre firm seeking a Real Estate Lawyer to join their growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a bright, ambitious lawyer who wants immediate access to high-quality work and genuine client exposure in a collaborative and supportive environment.



The Opportunity

Join a well-established, approachable team where you'll take full ownership of a diverse and active caseload across the firm's busy corporate and commercial real estate work. The role offers variety, challenge, and hands-on experience, including:

  • Acquisitions and disposals
  • Landlord & tenant matters
  • Lease negotiations
  • Refinance transactions

You'll be stepping into a role that offers hands-on experience and real responsibility, with opportunities to work directly with clients from day one.



Why This Role Stands Out

This is not a "back-office" real estate role. Here, you can:

  • Build long-term relationships with owner-managed businesses and key decision-makers
  • Develop your own client network, supported by the firm's strong reputation
  • Take ownership of your work in a team that values autonomy and trust


Who This Would Suit

This role is ideal for someone who:

  • Is currently part of a larger team but wants more visibility and impact
  • Is eager to accelerate their development and step into a more client-facing position
  • Enjoys building relationships and being part of a close-knit, collaborative team
  • Is a self-starter who thrives in a proactive and professional environment


The Culture

  • Supportive, non-hierarchical environment
  • Strong emphasis on collaboration and professional trust
  • Minimal bureaucracy - more opportunity to make your mark
