Amazing opportunity to build a Commercial Property team in Manchester within a traditional Top 75 UK law firm. The Firm I'm working with a well-regarded national law firm that has recently opened a Manchester office. The firm has built a reputation as one of the most progressive and forward-thinking regional practices in the UK.

It's an environment that attracts lawyers who value high-quality work and strong client relationships but prefer to avoid the intensity and hierarchy often found in larger city firms.

It's an excellent fit for commercially minded down-to-earth lawyers who want to contribute to a growing, ambitious practice with a real sense of purpose. The Role The firm is seeking an experienced Commercial Property Partner or Legal Director to establish and lead a Commercial Property team from its new Manchester office.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity to play a key role in shaping the future of a national firm's Manchester presence. If this sounds of interest, I'd love to hear from you.
