Job Description


I am working on a rare opportunity for a Knowledge Development Lawyer/PSL to join a leading Planning Practice.  The firm is recognised as being one of the leading practices in the sector with expertise across development planning as well as infrastructure with offices across the UK.  The suitable candidate will need to demonstrate significant experience as well as an enthusiasm for knowledge development.  The hiring firm is equally committed to knowledge development and sees the genuine value to the team that the incoming lawyer will have.  There is the opportunity to carve out your own role too with opportunities to contribute towards business development, innovation and tech plus fee earning should you wish.  If you are a Planning Lawyer looking for an alternative, then this might be worth a conversation.

In-house Planning role – Infrastructure focus
I am working with the legal team on an exciting project which is due to leave a legacy for future generations. If you are a Planning Lawyer with a track record of delivering infrastructure projects for clients and looking for an alternative role in-house then it might be worth us having a confidential conversation. You will need to have a strong background in running DCOs and be happy to work unsupervised. Although you will be part of a team, the Head of Legal needs someone they can rely on so it is likely that you will be at Senior Associate or approaching Senior Associate level. If you are intrigued then let me know and we can have a chat.
