A leading Legal 500-recognised regional law firm with a strong reputation across the South Coast is seeking a Commercial Real Estate Solicitor to join its well-established Bournemouth team.

This is an excellent opportunity to be part of a busy and highly regarded practice, working with an impressive client base that includes developers, investors, lenders and business occupiers.

The Role

You'll join a collaborative and fast-paced team, taking on a varied caseload of commercial property work while building strong, lasting client relationships.

Your work will include advising on the acquisition and disposal of commercial property, acting for developers and investors on a range of transactions. You'll also be involved in real estate finance matters, supporting both lenders and borrowers on secured lending and property-backed deals.

Alongside this, you'll handle a broad mix of landlord and tenant work, including drafting and negotiating leases, renewals, licences and assignments. There will also be opportunities to support specialist transactions involving pension schemes such as SIPPs and SASSs, where you can further develop niche expertise.
