AJ Chambers are currently working with a London based law firm to recruit for a 2 year+ PQE Commercial Property Solicitor to join the team in their Harrow office.

My client is on the panels for almost all the residential lenders and also on the panels for a number of banks, bridging finance companies and the restricted company panels of 3 well known investment lenders.

All the paralegals have a legal qualification. There is also an office Junior who can assist with downloading auction packs, creating data rooms et cetera.

You will be expected to able to work under pressure and to keep to deadlines. You will also be expected to identify the relevant legal principles and apply them accurately to matters under your control.
