High‑quality work with clear progression

Collaborative, well‑resourced team with genuine career longevity

Hybrid working and award‑winning culture (Great Place to Work® – 24 years running)

The proposition

Ideal for a 3-10 PQE solicitor with residential development experience and the ambition to build a long‑term career at the top of the market in Birmingham.
