Construction Solicitors

This Top 50 UK Law firm is recruiting for construction solicitors (both contentious and non-contentious) for their offices in the East and West Midands from NQ upwards.

Their national Construction & Engineering team cover all aspects of the built environment and process plant, from infrastructure to commercial and residential buildings, offices, retail, logistics and production facilities.

Their clients are some of the best-known names in the construction & engineering industry and they have an excellent reputation across the UK. They act for public and private sector employers, contractors, funds, consultants and sub-contractors.

For the non-contentious role you will have experience of drafting and negotiating JCT amendments, consultants’ appointments, warranties, etc and ideally you would have some experience of NEC but this is not essential.  You will be able to work as part of a team dealing with property development projects for employers and providing construction law assistance to the property lawyers dealing with the development documents.

For the contentious role, applications are invited from lawyers who have trained and qualified with a recognised construction team, have at least 6 months experience as part of a training contract, and/or have experience of contentious construction work or a mix of contentious and advisory work.

Ideally, you will be between 0-8 years PQE, however, we encourage applications whatever your PQE or experience as the team are very much in growth mode.

The roles will support hybrid working and offers region leading salaries and low chargeable hours targets.
