We are currently looking to a Property Lawyer to join the Property Energy and Infrastructure subteam within our Development & Investment team, part of our UK National Property Group. This person can be based at any of our Aberdeen, Belfast, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds or Manchester offices.

Sector insight is absolutely central to the way we work.

Whilst the successful candidate will sit within the specialist Energy & Infrastructure Property subteam our Development & Investment team (which is part of our UK national Property Group), they will also have close links to our global, multi-disciplinary sector teams, energy and infrastructure being two of our Global Sectors.
