Join Orwins as a Senior Associate in our high-performing property team and hit the ground running in one of our most exciting and complex practice areas. We do law differently – less formal, more focused, and built around doing genuinely excellent work for clients who trust us with some of their most significant transactions. This is not a role for someone looking to settle. It is a role for a seasoned property lawyer who is ready to take on complex commercial property work, work closely with a senior partner, and make a real mark. If you are oven-ready, commercially sharp and looking for a firm where you can stretch yourself – this is the role for you.
What You Will Be Doing
- Running and managing a caseload of complex commercial property transactions – including acquisitions, disposals, development work, leases and property finance matters.
- Working directly alongside a senior partner, taking genuine ownership of files and playing a leading role in client relationships.
- Providing expert advice to a broad range of clients – from investors and developers to owner-occupiers and lenders – across complex and high-value transactions.
- Supporting and supervising more junior members of the property team, sharing your knowledge and helping others develop.
- Contributing to the growth of the team — through excellent client service, technical expertise and, where appropriate, business development activity.
- Working within a highly collaborative team culture where expertise is shared freely and people are genuinely supported.
What We Are Looking For
- 5–10 years PQE in commercial and/or residential property.
- You know your way around a complex deal, you are technically excellent and you do not need hand-holding.
- You are the kind of lawyer clients trust and colleagues respect.
- LEAP experience is a bonus.
What You Will Get
- 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and your birthday off — increasing with service.
- Private Medical Insurance through Vitality.
- Cash plan through Medicash.
- EAP scheme (open to family members).
- Referral bonuses.
- Enhanced wellbeing and family-friendly policies.
- Salary sacrifice pension through NEST.
- Hybrid working – we trust you to know where you do your best work.
- Free fruit, drinks and regular freebie lunches.
- CSR events and summer and winter colleague celebrations.
- A people-focused, collaborative culture that makes coming to work genuinely worth it.
