Real Estate Lawyers- Skipton, Yorkshire
Senior and mid level 
Brand new office opportunity with an established North West law firm

I’m working with a well-regarded North West law firm that is opening a brand new office in Skipton, after more than five years of planning. They’re now looking for real eatate lawyers who want to help shape it from day one.

The opportunity

The office launches with a team in place, backed by a wider firm with strong links to the area and existing referral relationships with local professional connections. My client plans to grow the team over the first year and is also looking to appoint someone to head up the office if that is what you are looking for. Whoever joins will have a genuine say in how it develops.

The drive for growth will be led by a partner who lives locally and is fully committed to making Skipton a success.

Who my client is looking for

They’re recruiting across several teams, with a particular focus on:

• Real Estate, ideally with an agricultural or rural leaning

They would love to hear from senior lawyers with their own work and connections in the Skipton and Dales area. Lawyers at all levels will be considered, including juniors. Newer lawyers may spend some time in one of the firm’s established offices to begin with, for close supervision and a proper introduction to the firm’s way of working, before moving to Skipton as the office beds in.

What’s on offer

• Salary in line with leading North West firms, and often ahead of local Skipton rates
• Pay based on the value you bring, not a lower scale because of where you’re based
• Hybrid working, typically three days in the office and two from home, varying by team
• A trust-based culture: if you do great work and keep clients happy, no one is fussed about where you do it
• The chance to build your career and client base in a firm investing in the area for the long term

Interested?

If you’d like to hear more, I’d be glad to arrange a confidential conversation. The firm’s name will be shared once we’ve spoken.
