In-House Senior Property Lawyer - 8 + PQE - Green Energy

A leading organisation operating at the forefront of the green energy and infrastructure sector is looking to appoint a Senior Property Lawyer to join its established in-house legal team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a senior real estate lawyer looking for a broad, high-value and genuinely varied in-house role, working closely with the Estates team and wider business on significant development, infrastructure and energy-related projects.

The role will see you providing commercially focused property advice across a diverse portfolio, with a particular focus on Landlord & Tenant and development work.

• Leading on complex Landlord & Tenant matters, acquisitions, disposals, leases and licences.
• Advising on major development projects, including options, development agreements and multi-party land arrangements.
• Supporting significant energy, infrastructure and large-scale development projects from inception through to completion.
• Advising on the property aspects of bids, planning and local authority projects, working closely with internal Estates, Development and Commercial teams.
• The role offers genuine variety and the opportunity to take ownership of large, complex projects with significant commercial impact.

We're looking for an experienced real estate lawyer with 8+ years' PQE, although quality and breadth of experience will be more important than PQE alone.

• Significant development and transactional real estate experience.
• Strong Landlord & Tenant experience.
• A track record of handling large-scale, complex property projects.
• Excellent commercial judgement and the confidence to operate autonomously.
• Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to work effectively with senior business colleagues.
• You may be currently working in private practice at Partner/Legal Director level, or already operating at a senior level in-house.

This is an opportunity to move in-house without compromising on the quality or complexity of the work. You'll have exposure to major development, infrastructure and energy projects, alongside a substantial Landlord & Tenant workload, and will become a key legal adviser to the Estates function.

If you're a senior real estate lawyer looking for a high-profile, commercially focused in-house role with genuine breadth and responsibility, this is an opportunity worth exploring.

The role is either fully remote, or if preffered you can choose to work out of the East Midlands HQ on a hybrid basis.
