Residential Development Solicitor (2+ PQE)

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Residential Development Solicitor to join a growing and ambitious team based in Birmingham, as the firm continues to expand its residential development capability.

The successful candidate will advise on a broad range of residential development matters, acting for housebuilders, developers and landowners on transactions throughout the development lifecycle.

Work will include site acquisitions, options and promotion agreements, planning and infrastructure agreements, and plot sales, offering exposure to high-quality, commercially focused development work.

This is a key role within a progressive firm that offers genuine long-term career prospects for a solicitor who is commercially minded, technically strong and keen to build lasting client relationships.
