Are you a real estate solicitor with 3+ years’ PQE who’s ready to join one of the most palpably energised commercial firms in Scotland right now?

Job Description

If your answer is even slightly “maybe”… keep going.

My client — a genuinely respected, fast-growing commercial firm — is building out its Edinburgh real estate team, and they’re looking for a Solicitor or Associate who’s hungry for more than just another job title on LinkedIn.

Maybe you’re currently tucked inside a giant Legal 500 machine: great brand, impressive clients… and a career ladder that feels like it’s missing a few rungs. If you want somewhere that actually notices your work — and doesn’t require a search party to find your contribution — this is your moment.

Here, you’ll get your hands on heavyweight transactions: chunky acquisitions and disposals, big-name commercial leasing, and lending work with major UK banks and financial institutions. Proper deals. Proper responsibility. None of the “please wait your turn for five years” nonsense.

And the vibe? This firm is buzzing. Not in a “we put that on a brochure once” way — in a real, contagious, forward-moving way. The kind of place where people are excited, ambitious, and not afraid to build something special.

You won’t be a spectator here. You’ll be a key player, your development will actually happen, and the salary is absolutely competitive with the blue-chip crowd.
