Description
If you're a commercial property lawyer with a passion for legal excellence and an interest in shaping the future of your field, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. Join our Commercial Property team as a Professional Support Lawyer (PSL) and leverage your expertise in a way that supports team growth, drives innovation, and strengthens our knowledge-sharing practices.
About Us
We're a Top 100, full-service UK law firm with just over 500 employees. With 4 offices in Bristol, Birmingham, London and Watford, you'll be struck by our close-knit and friendly culture. We believe in integrity and authenticity- in each one of us being ourselves both in our interactions with each other as well as with our clients. With a reputation not just for the quality of our work, but also for the qualities of our people, we strive to recruit individuals who are proactive and passionate about what they do and able to demonstrate humour and humility in equal measure.
Our Real Estate Department is made up of highly skilled lawyers with expertise in a wide range of real estate matters, from commercial property transactions to residential developments. We work with a broad client base, including developers, investors, landlords, and tenants. Collaboration and knowledge-sharing are central to our success, and as a PSL, you will play a key role in supporting the team's growth and development. You will work closely with partners, associates, and junior lawyers to ensure the team's legal knowledge is cutting-edge and our service to clients is second to none.
The Role
We're looking for a skilled Professional Support Lawyer (PSL) to join our Real Estate department. The key focus of this role is to manage and develop the department's knowledge resources, ensuring the team stays up-to-date with legal developments, enhancing efficiency, and contributing to our continued growth and success. The PSL will focus on knowledge management, training, and content creation, offering vital support to fee earners across the department. This role offers the opportunity to combine legal expertise with strategic thinking, driving innovation and contributing to the quality of the firm's real estate services.
About You
You're most likely working at or around the Senior Associate level and have strong experience in a broad range of commercial property work, with a keen eye for detail and technical excellence. Perhaps you're currently working with a Top 100 UK law firm or maybe your career has taken an in-house route. Either way, if you have good experience of advising commercial property clients, a passion for your subject and a desire to share your expertise with colleagues, then we'd be delighted to hear from you.
Here at VWV, we recognise that each one of us is an individual. We are passionate about creating an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. If you require any special adjustments to be made in order to be considered for this role, then please do call us (see contact details in the "How to Apply" section below), as we will be happy to do so.
Where will I be working?
At VWV we have a truly unique and engaging culture that we hold dear. We work hard but we also love to have fun and we recognise that it's the social interaction between us that really shapes our culture. Whilst we operate a hybrid model of working, for this role we would like you to be based from our Bristol or Birmingham office for at least part of the week. In this way, you'll benefit first-hand from our warm and friendly culture as well as facilitate cross referral opportunities from your colleagues in other teams. We are of course happy to discuss any specific requirements of hybrid working with candidates on an individual basis.
How to apply?
Whilst we're renowned for our transparent and welcoming culture, we know that making the next career move can be daunting. We've all been there! To help you to get more of a flavour for life at VWV and to find out what our own people say about us, we invite you to watch this short video on the right hand side.
