International Law Firm
Environment Senior Associate – 7+ PQE
London
The Firm:
This prominent international law firm is headquartered in London, with offices across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. The firm’s core practice areas encompass corporate law, commercial litigation, and regulatory compliance. They are renowned for their commitment to innovation, leveraging technology to deliver efficient legal services. Their client-centric approach, global reach, and industry expertise make them a trusted partner for legal solutions worldwide.
About the Team:
The Firm’s Environment Team sits within the Planning & Environment team, which is the largest dedicated Planning and Environment team in the UK, with specialists involved in a wide range of major projects across the Energy, Infrastructure and Real Estate sectors.
The Environment Team experts cover the full range of environmental law and also advise on a wide range of natural capital, climate change and sustainability matters. This includes:
- Net zero, carbon, biodiversity and natural capital advice, including nature-based solutions, offsetting, and EU /UK ETS compliance;
- Environmental aspects of major infrastructure consenting and development, including onshore & offshore renewables, carbon capture & storage, new water resources, and climate change resilience projects; and
- Regulatory advice e.g. advising on remediation liability, nuclear regulation, water licensing, waste management, environmental permitting, extended producer responsibility, F-Gas, WEEE etc.;
The candidate will therefore be part of a national practice and will have exposure to not only pure environment work, but also have the opportunity to work alongside our leading consenting lawyers, as well as the wider firm on climate and sustainability advisory work.
The Brief:
The firm are recruiting for a solicitor with at least 7 years PQE to join their Environment Team in London, focusing on their Climate & Sustainability practice. The successful candidate will have strong experience gained from a national or international practice, in providing both strategic and regulatory advice on the environment, natural capital and climate and sustainability to clients, and who also has skills and experience in contractual drafting and negotiation in this area.
Example areas of the type of experience we are looking for include:
- Advising on Biodiversity Net Gain and Nutrient Neutrality for developers;
- Advising on natural capital projects in the UK and/or overseas;
- Advising on carbon offsetting projects in the UK and/or overseas;
- Drafting and negotiating commercial agreements in relation to BNG, Nutrient Neutrality, natural capital investment, carbon offsetting and other ecosystems services outcomes; and
- Advising on other climate & sustainability matters, including climate reporting, extended producer responsibility and supply chain measures.
- Advising on the establishment and operation of natural capital projects, including habitat banks for Biodiversity Net Gain and Nutrient Neutrality, carbon offsetting and other ecosystems services.
- Drafting and negotiating of section 106 agreements and conservation covenants to secure natural capital projects.
This is an excellent opportunity to work on a broad range of both climate and sustainability and environmental matters and be part of a national team with senior top ranked specialists.
Please apply as directed or confidentially contact Aidan McAvinue at Search Legal for more information. Alternatively, if this role is not for you, I am working a variety of other Environment Law opportunities with ranked teams in the City London so would be interested to talk to any Environment lawyer.
