An opport unity for an established Non-Contentious Construction Partner (ideally with a following) to join and help to lead our highly successful team.

As a Partner in our well-regarded Construction team, we will support and encourage you to get involved in business development activities and become embedded into your client sectors, as well as nurturing and extending existing client relationships. This role will focus your technical and client management skills with access to challenging and varied work, working alongside highly respected leading practitioners.

The role is right for you if:

• You are someone with talent, ambition and a proven track record and expertise in Non-Contentious Construction work

• With at least 8 years
  of post-qualification experience, you will have established strong client
  relationships, very probably, a degree of following.
• You will have developed
  strong business development skills and have a vision about how to grow your
  practice. We will however consider
  applicants with less qualification experience but who can demonstrate the
  qualities we are looking for.
• You will need to be
  technically excellent but equally, commercially aware.
• You will need to be a
  team player with a client focussed approach and a keenness to become involved
  in business development activities within the team as a whole, having built up strong
  professional connections
• We value hard working team players, but equally value and promote a positive culture with a strong work-life balance. Yes, there are deadlines to meet, but we do not believe that long hours are healthy or produce great client service. We look for well-rounded teams and individuals, as do our clients.
