Reading UK, Berkshire, United Kingdom Blake Morgan LLP Full time

We are currently looking to hire into our Reading based Real Estate team and welcome applications from Commercial Property Solicitors with broad ranging property experience. The team acts for investors, developers, banks, occupiers, local authorities and charities and is highly regarded for its work.


The successful applicant will be responsible for but not be limited to leases and agreements (office, industrial and retail), secured lending and corporate support, mixed use site development matters, due diligence and client support in conjunction with more senior fee earners. This role will support prestigious clients on high value deals, in a fast paced and dynamic environment.

We can provide you with an excellent platform to develop both your technical ability and business development skills within a supportive and thriving team.


Whilst you will be part of a large real estate team which spans our other offices (especially London, Oxford, Reading and Cardiff), you will be working exclusively in the real estate team in our Reading office. You will likely soon develop close client relationships that will endure through your career. Our encouragement of a decent work/life balance and complimentary interests will help you towards a strong long-term profile in this region.

* Supporting and/or taking full responsibility for deals by drafting, reviewing and negotiating contracts, leases, licences, transfers, deeds, etc.

* Undertaking due diligence tasks by reviewing and reporting on title, raising enquiries, reviewing searches

* Dealing with secured lending and corporate support transactions and working closely with our Banking, Corporate and Insolvency Teams

* Liaising with clients and lawyers on the other side of transactions

* Obtaining quotes for indemnity policies, liaising with insurance brokers and underwriters as appropriate

* Undertaking legal research

* Attending client or all parties' meetings

* Participating in business development events


Skills / Experience Required

Your experience will probably have been acquired at a leading national or regional firm where you have been involved in good quality real estate work.

We expect candidates for the position to have the following personal attributes:

* Confident and personable

* Strong technical competence

* A commercial approach

* Excellent communication skills and able to explain complex matters to clients without a legal background
