The firm's Agricultural Property team is ranked Top Tier in both The Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners and is recognised as one of the largest and most highly regarded standalone teams in the region. The team acts for a diverse client base, including some of the UK's largest estates, farmers, landowners, and educational institutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Delivering high-quality legal advice to rural clients on a range of property matters.
  • Developing and maintaining strong client relationships, ensuring exceptional client service.
  • Managing financial performance, including accurate time recording and achieving targets.
  • Contributing to business development initiatives to grow the practice.
  • Staying up-to-date on legal and sector-specific developments.
  • Playing an active role in the team's collaborative and supportive culture.

  • Relevant experience in agricultural or property law, with strong synergies to the role.
  • A commercial mindset and the ability to understand and meet client needs.
  • Proven ability to manage a varied caseload with minimal supervision.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with a client-focused approach.
  • Technical expertise and proficiency with IT systems, including case management software.
  • A proactive attitude and commitment to personal and professional development.
