Role Overview We are looking for an in-house lawyer (4-8 PQE) to join a busy in-house property development legal team. This is a hands on, delivery focused role supporting the business across the full development lifecycle-from site acquisition and planning through construction, funding, sales/lettings and asset management.

We are advertising this role in Altrincham and the Isle of Man for one role. What you will do Development/Real Estate Run and support site acquisitions and disposals (freehold and leasehold), including title review, due diligence, conditions precedent management, and completions. Review and negotiate conditional contracts, options, overage agreements, development agreements, and associated ancillary documentation. Support lettings/sales workstreams including agreements for lease, variations, licences, and general landlord and tenant issues. Provide pragmatic advice on property risk (title defects, easements/rights, restrictive covenants, access, utilities, environmental), escalating higher risk issues appropriately. Supporting plot sales workstreams including site set up, preparation and settling precedent form sales documents and providing general support for the in house plot sales team. Planning Support planning workstreams by coordinating legal input on planning conditions/obligations and liaising with external counsel where required (e.g., section agreements), ensuring risks and dependencies are understood by the project team. Commercial Draft, review and negotiate commercial contracts relevant to a developer (e.g., professional services, agency/broker, marketing, NDAs). Provide governance/execution support: approvals, execution formalities, and document management.
