Job Description
A leading full-service commercial firm in Leeds is looking to recruit a Construction Associate (1–5 PQE) to join its growing specialist Construction team.
This is a key hire as the team continues to expand its offering within a well-established and highly regarded Real Estate practice.
The Team
The Construction team currently comprises a Partner, two Senior Associates, two consultants and a Paralegal. Notably, both Senior Associates have rejoined the firm after spending time elsewhere, which speaks strongly to the quality of work, culture and long-term opportunities on offer.
The team advises on both contentious and non-contentious construction matters and has a strong pipeline of work across a range of sectors.
The Role
You will advise clients on a broad range of construction matters, which may include:
Drafting and negotiating construction contracts and associated documentation
Advising on procurement strategies and project risk
Handling construction disputes, including adjudication, litigation and other forms of dispute resolution
Working closely with colleagues across Real Estate, Corporate and Litigation teams on multi-disciplinary matters
The team can accommodate candidates with a contentious, non-contentious or mixed background. The key requirement is genuine construction specialism and high-quality experience.
The Candidate
1–5 years’ PQE in construction law
Strong technical grounding in either contentious, non-contentious or both
Experience gained within a recognised construction practice
Commercial, pragmatic approach and strong drafting skills
Ambitious and keen to be part of a growing team
This is an excellent opportunity for a construction specialist looking to develop their career within a collaborative, ambitious and well-regarded Leeds firm.
