Job Description

If you are a newly qualified solicitor or have up to four years' post-qualified experience in commercial property, this is a genuinely exciting opportunity to join one of Plymouth's most respected and progressive law firms.

Our client is a Legal 500 and Chambers-ranked firm with an outstanding reputation across the Southwest. With more than 200 years of history behind them, they have built a modern, forward-thinking practice that combines high-quality legal work with a supportive and approachable culture. Unlike many firms, they genuinely invest in their people - offering clear progression routes, excellent mentoring and a collaborative environment where junior lawyers are encouraged to develop and thrive.

Their Commercial Property team is one of the largest dedicated property teams in Plymouth and advises a broad range of businesses, developers, investors and lenders across the region and beyond.

  • Development projects and site acquisitions
  • Property finance and secured lending
  • Asset and investment transactions
  • Renewable energy projects
  • Portfolio management work
  • Commercial leases and refinancing matters

This role would suit somebody who enjoys building relationships, takes pride in delivering excellent client service and wants to become part of a genuinely friendly and ambitious team.

You do not need decades of experience to be considered. What matters most is enthusiasm, strong communication skills, commercial awareness and a desire to build your career within a highly regarded regional firm.

The successful candidate will:

  • Be qualified as a solicitor or legal executive with up to 4 years' PQE
  • Have experience or a genuine interest in commercial property work
  • Be personable, motivated and commercially minded
  • Enjoy working collaboratively within a supportive team
  • Have strong organisational and client care skills
  • Be keen to contribute to networking and business development opportunities

In return, our client offers:

  • High-quality commercial property work from day one
  • A friendly and down-to-earth culture
  • Clear progression opportunities
  • Excellent mentoring and support
  • Competitive salary and benefits
  • A modern working environment with strong investment in technology and people
  • A firm that genuinely values employee wellbeing

This is a fantastic opportunity for a junior commercial property lawyer looking to develop their career within a well-established, growing and highly respected Southwest firm.
