55000 - 70000 per annumBasingstoke, HampshirePermanentCommercial Property Solicitor - 3+ PQE | Basingstoke, Hampshire (Succession Plan / Partnership Potential)For years, this firm's commercial property practice has been built, client by client, deal by deal, around one experienced partner. Now, with retirement on the horizon in the next 5 years, that partner is looking for someone to learn the ropes alongside them and, in time, take the reins entirely.
This is a genuine succession story, not a token gesture towards "partnership potential" buried in the small print. You'll work directly alongside a highly experienced commercial property specialist, absorbing years of client relationships, technical know-how, and local market insight, all with a clear, realistic runway towards leading the practice yourself. The firm itself is a well-regarded high street name with a strong, loyal client base and a relaxed, low-ego culture.
