You’d see investment and development financings, PRS and student schemes, logistics portfolios, hotels and leisure, plus occasional mezzanine and Islamic finance deals. The client base spans clearing and investment banks, alternative lenders, funds, insurers, developers and property companies. The deal flow is genuinely varied and commercially interesting.
What you’ll do
• Advise lenders and borrowers on real estate-backed financing
• Draft and negotiate the core finance documents
• Run your own matters with solid Partner support
• Work closely with the banking and real estate teams
• Contribute to business development and wider team growth
Why people choose this team
You get early responsibility, direct Partner access and space to progress without being boxed into a narrow lane. The culture is collaborative, high-performing and known for developing rounded REF lawyers rather than pure document churners.
