The Role

As a Manager, Real Estate, you will support Senior Managers and Heads of Real Estate in running the Digital Legal Delivery Real Estate team.

  • Escalating project-specific issues to relevant Senior Managers/Heads of Real Estate.
  • Maintaining updated knowledge as an 'expert' in specialist areas of practice.
  • Supporting drafting, updating, and revising internal materials and processes related to real estate practice, making recommendations for service delivery improvements.
  • Assisting with written material or cost models for pitches and marketing initiatives if required.
  • Project managing individual matters, communicating with internal or external clients, ensuring relevant legal issues are understood, and managing resources effectively.
  • Liaising with teams elsewhere in the firm as required on fee-earning or other projects.
  • Promoting and selling the Digital Legal Delivery Real Estate offering to internal clients through high-quality work and positive internal relationships.
  • Line management responsibility for Senior Solicitors, Solicitors, Trainees, and Legal Analysts.

  • Preferred, but not essential, is experience in the energy sector.
Compensation and Benefits

We offer a competitive salary of approximately £90,000 - £120,000 per annum based on location and qualifications. The actual salary will be discussed during the hiring process.
