Commercial Property Solicitor | Brighton

Brighton is not a secondary market. For commercial property solicitors who want genuine deal exposure without the commute into London, it has become one of the more interesting places to build a career on the south coast. A strong local economy, an active development pipeline, and a commercial client base that punches above its size make it a market worth taking seriously.

RecQuest is working with an established Brighton firm to find a Commercial Property Solicitor at the 1 to 4 years PQE level. This is a team that handles real commercial property work, not a mixed residential practice with a commercial label bolted on.

The role

• A varied commercial property caseload across acquisitions, disposals, leases, licences and landlord and tenant matters

• Genuine technical exposure from early on, with senior support available when the work calls for it

• A collaborative team environment within a firm that has built a strong commercial reputation locally

• Room to develop client relationships alongside your technical skills

What the firm is looking for

• Qualified Solicitor with 1 to 4 years PQE in commercial property

• Solid grounding in core commercial property transactions

• Strong written communication and client care skills

• Based locally to Brighton, or committed to the location

Why this is worth a conversation

Commercial property roles at this level are not equal. Some give you a caseload and leave you to it. Some keep you doing due diligence while the interesting work goes elsewhere. This firm sits in a different category. The work is varied, the team is active, and the Brighton market gives you client exposure that would take longer to reach in a larger city firm.
