Senior Associate — Property Team

Join Orwins as a Senior Associate in our high-performing property team and hit the ground running in one of our most exciting and complex practice areas.

We do law differently – less formal, more focused, and built around doing genuinely excellent work for clients who trust us with some of their most significant transactions. This is not a role for someone looking to settle. It is a role for a seasoned property lawyer who is ready to take on complex commercial property work, work closely with a senior partner, and make a real mark.

If you are oven-ready, commercially sharp and looking for a firm where you can stretch yourself – this is the role for you

.

What You Will Be Doing

• Running and managing a caseload of complex commercial property transactions – including acquisitions, disposals, development work, leases and property finance matters.
• Working directly alongside a senior partner, taking genuine ownership of files and playing a leading role in client relationships.
• Providing expert advice to a broad range of clients – from investors and developers to owner-occupiers and lenders – across complex and high-value transactions.
• Supporting and supervising more junior members of the property team, sharing your knowledge and helping others develop.
• Contributing to the growth of the team — through excellent client service, technical expertise and, where appropriate, business development activity.
• Working within a highly collaborative team culture where expertise is shared freely and people are genuinely supported.

What We Are Looking For

5–10 years PQE in commercial and/or residential property. You know your way around a complex deal, you are technically excellent and you do not need hand-holding. You are the kind of lawyer clients trust and colleagues respect. LEAP experience is a bonus.

What You Will Get

At Orwins, we invest in our people just as much as our future. Our future is our people. This is a firm where your voice is heard, your contribution is recognised, and your development is taken seriously - not just talked about.

You will get genuine access to our C-Suite, senior partners, leaders and clients from day one, working closely with a team that values expertise, supports each other and takes pride in doing things well. We are growing fast, and the people who join us will grow with us too.

In addition:

• 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and your birthday off — increasing with service
• Private Medical Insurance through Vitality
• Cash plan through Medicash
• EAP scheme (open to family members)
• Referral bonuses
• Enhanced wellbeing and family-friendly policies
• Salary sacrifice pension through NEST
• Hybrid working – we trust you to know where you do your best work
• Free fruit, drinks and regular freebie lunches
• CSR events and summer and winter colleague celebrations
• A people-focused, collaborative culture that makes coming to work genuinely worth it
