Emsworth Based | High-Quality Work | Scope for Progression
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the growing Commercial Property team at Belcher Addison. We’re looking for a proactive and ambitious solicitor (2–3+ years’ PQE) who is ready to take the next step in their career and play a key role in the continued success of our firm.
This is a varied and rewarding position where you’ll take on significant responsibility from day one – managing your own caseload, building strong client relationships, and contributing to the growth of the practice.
Why Join Us?
At Belcher Addison, we combine the high standards of a top-tier firm with the personal touch of a local practice. We offer the chance to work on transactions and matters which many other local firms can’t provide, all within a supportive and close-knit team environment.
We have a clear vision for growth and succession planning, and we’re committed to helping our team develop meaningful, long-term careers.
Your Role
You’ll manage a diverse portfolio of commercial property work and act as a trusted advisor to clients.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Handling acquisitions, disposals, leases and development transactions.
* Advising clients on a broad range of commercial property matters with tailored, commercially viable solutions.
* Leading negotiations and drafting legal documentation, including contracts and leases.
* Providing strategic guidance on property investments and portfolio management.
* Managing transactions from start to finish, ensuring deadlines are met and matters progress smoothly.
* Maintaining strong client relationships and acting as a key point of contact.
* Supporting junior colleagues through supervision, training and mentoring.
* Meeting time recording and billing targets.
* Contributing to the development of the firm through networking, business development and practice growth initiatives.
We also encourage:
* Specialisation within commercial property, allowing you to develop your own niche and expertise.
* Taking on agreed management and practice development roles, tailored to your interests.
Who You Are
* 2–3+ years’ PQE in commercial conveyancing (we’re happy to consider candidates with slightly less experience who demonstrate strong potential).
* Trained at a reputable firm and looking for a new challenge within a dynamic and ambitious practice.
* A confident communicator with a strong client focus and high standards of personal service.
* Organised, commercially minded, and driven to contribute to the wider success of the firm.
What We Offer
* High-quality work – A caseload of varied and interesting commercial property matters.
* A supportive team culture – The standards of a top-tier firm with the warmth of a local practice.
* Long-term career growth – A role designed for development, with support to grow into a leadership position.
Many of our team have joined us from larger firms, drawn by the opportunity to make a real impact while enjoying a closer, more personalised approach to legal work.
If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, please apply by sending a cover letter and CV to the Practice Manager, Paul Docking, atpdocking@belcheraddison.co.ukor contact us for a confidential discussion below.
