Job description
Property Partner A small, well-regarded law firm near Tunbridge Wells is seeking an experienced Property Partner to join the practice as a clear stepping stone to equity.
This is an excellent opportunity for a Senior Associate Solicitor or Property Partner who is ready to move towards equity in the short to medium term, within a supportive, transparent and entrepreneurial firm. The role is ideal for a Property Partner who wants influence, autonomy and a genuine route to ownership, rather than a static salaried position.
The firm is open to discussions with an existing Property Partner, or a senior property lawyer ready to step up into a Property Partner role with a defined pathway to equity.
The Role As Property Partner, you will play a central role in both fee-earning and the strategic development of the firm’s property offering, with clear expectations and milestones linked to progression to equity.
Key duties and responsibilities will include:
1. Managing a high-quality caseload of property matters (residential and/or commercial, depending on experience)
2. Developing and maintaining strong client and referrer relationships
3. Taking an active role in business development and growth initiatives
4. Leading, mentoring and supporting junior members of the property team
5. Contributing to firm-wide strategy and long-term planning
6. Working towards agreed targets and objectives linked to equity progression
About You The firm is looking for a Property Partner who:
7. Has significant experience in property law (working at Senior Associate Solicitor or Partner level) - at least 7 years PQE
8. Is confident managing matters independently
9. Demonstrates a commercial and growth-focused mindset
10. Enjoys business development and client engagement
11. Is motivated by a clear, structured route to equity
What’s on Offer
12. A Property Partner role with a defined and realistic pathway to equity
13. Transparency around expectations, timelines and performance criteria
14. Competitive remuneration at partner level (bonus structure available)
15. A genuine voice within a smaller, collaborative firm
16. Long-term career progression into equity for the right Property Partner
This role would suit a Property Partner who is seeking more than just a title — offering a credible opportunity to move into equity within a firm where contribution and commitment are recognised and rewarded.
