Ready for a role where your commercial property expertise can translate into real career progression, stronger client relationships and greater influence? This is an opportunity to join a well-established West Midlands practice that combines a long-standing reputation with a modern, commercially focused approach.

With more than a century of history, the firm has developed strong relationships with businesses, developers, investors, landlords and landowners across the region. Its approach is centred around providing practical, tailored advice, giving experienced solicitors the opportunity to become trusted advisers rather than simply handling transactions from instruction to completion.

The Cannock office offers a chance to establish yourself within a respected regional practice while working alongside specialists across a broader commercial legal offering. With agile working and a collaborative environment, the role provides flexibility without compromising on client contact or professional development.

The Role

• Take ownership of a varied commercial property caseload representing a diverse range of clients.
• Advise on acquisitions, disposals and other commercial property transactions from initial instruction through to completion.
• Manage commercial lease work, licences and related occupational matters.
• Handle property finance transactions and advise on the property aspects of secured lending.
• Work on more specialist arrangements, including options, pre-emption agreements and overage provisions.
• Become a trusted point of contact for clients, understanding their businesses and providing advice that reflects their wider commercial objectives.
• Strengthen existing relationships while actively looking for opportunities to introduce new clients and sources of work.
• Work collaboratively with other legal specialists where property forms part of a wider corporate or commercial transaction.
• Contribute your experience and commercial insight to the continued development of the department.
• Have the freedom to develop your own professional network and profile within the Cannock market.
• Benefit from an agile working model while being part of an established office environment.
