A highly regarded Scottish firm with UK-wide reach is looking to appoint a Rural Property Solicitor (2–5 PQE) to join its established and well-respected team.
The firm has a long-standing reputation in the rural and estates sector, advising many of Scotland’s most prominent landowners, estate managers and rural businesses. As part of this specialist team, you will work on a wide variety of matters involving large rural estates, farms, forestry holdings and country properties, often acting for clients whose landholdings are both historically significant and commercially important.
The work is varied and intellectually engaging. You can expect to advise on estate management matters, rural acquisitions and disposals, agricultural tenancies, development opportunities, and the diversification of rural landholdings. Much of the work is relationship-led, with the firm maintaining long-standing client relationships built on trust, discretion and high-quality advice.
You will work closely with experienced partners and senior solicitors who are recognised leaders in the rural property sector. The team operates in a genuinely collaborative environment where junior and mid-level solicitors are given early responsibility, meaningful client exposure and strong support to develop their expertise.
The firm is seeking a 2–5 PQE solicitor with experience in rural property or general commercial property who has an interest in developing a long-term career in the rural and estates sector. An understanding of agricultural or estate matters would be beneficial, although strong property experience and a genuine interest in the sector will also be considered.
For a solicitor looking to build a career advising some of Scotland’s most recognised landowners within a firm known for its national reach and sector expertise, this represents an excellent opportunity.
