Within the team you will work alongside paralegals and lawyers to learn how to run leasing matters for landlord clients from instruction through to completion.

Whilst the majority of your work will fall within the retail space there will be the opportunity to also work on commercial leases.

About you

You will either have some experience within a retail, leasing or property environment or be currently undertaking a law degree or conveyancing qualification. You will have excellent communication with the capacity to influence and high level writing/drafting skills. You will be client driven self‑motivated with a genuine desire to develop your knowledge and skillset in large scale leasing matters. You will also have strong attention to detail, an enthusiasm for your work and thrive in a team environment that delivers exceptional service.
