About the Firm

This leading UK law firm is highly regarded in the construction sector, recognised for providing commercially astute advice to a diverse portfolio of clients. The firm maintains a strong reputation for collaborative culture, long-standing client relationships, and sector-specific expertise across real estate, housing, infrastructure, and corporate.

The Role

An exceptional opportunity has arisen for a Senior Associate to join their highly regarded Construction team. The practice covers both contentious and non-contentious work, but the firm is open to candidates with experience in either discipline. You will have the flexibility to focus on the areas that align best with your expertise and preferences, while gaining exposure to high-quality instructions and major UK projects. The priority is finding the right individual, rather than requiring a rigid specialisation.

What They’re Looking For

  • Strong experience in either contentious or non-contentious construction law (or both)
  • Ability to handle high-quality matters independently and provide pragmatic advice
  • Familiarity with JCT and/or NEC forms of contract (contentious candidates should demonstrate dispute resolution experience)
  • Strong client relationship, communication, and supervisory skills

Why Apply?

You will gain exposure to high-value and complex work within a supportive team that offers career development opportunities. This is an exciting role for candidates seeking top-quality instructions paired with a forward-thinking culture.
