One of the leading legal firms in the North East of England has an opportunity available for a qualified Construction Lawyer with 2 years or more non-contentious experience. This role has originated out of a fantastic period of growth and an influx of work for the practice and with a fantastic pipeline of work on behalf of clients based both regionally, nationally and overseas, any candidate looking for the next step in their construction law career should consider applying.

This role would be a perfect fit for any construction lawyers looking to enhance their business development skills and who are able to offer support to more junior members of the existing team.

Essential experience from applying candidates will be previous dealings with NEC & JCT documentation in addition to appointments, collateral warranties and cross-company guarantees and bonds. This role will not be suitable for candidates who are seeking to re-train in a different practice area or candidates who have worked mainly in contentious construction.

On top of excellent work on behalf of a varied client base, candidates can expect to join a practice which is regularly in the spotlight for its supportive culture and high achievers. The firm is a regular feature when it comes to legal awards and is regularly recognised as being one of the North East region's top employers.
