Job Description

My client, a leading international law firm with a stellar and growing reputation in the renewables sector, is seeking a Real Estate Partner—or even a team—to join their dynamic Glasgow or Edinburgh offices. 

If you have a track record of advising on real estate matters for renewable energy projects, whether it’s wind, solar, hydro, or other sustainable developments, this role offers the chance to work on some of the most exciting and high-profile projects in Scotland and beyond.

In this role, you’ll be at the forefront of the firm’s energy and infrastructure offering, handling everything from site acquisitions and leasing to complex joint ventures and development agreements. The firm’s client base includes major developers, investors, and energy companies, giving you access to top-tier work from day one.

The ideal candidate will have significant experience in real estate law with a strong focus on renewable energy projects. While an existing client following would be a bonus, it’s definitively not essential—what matters most is your proven ability to develop and maintain client relationships and a workable plan for future growth in a firm that will offer you the marketing support needed to achieve this. If you’re part of a team looking to move together, the firm is open to discussions about accommodating multiple hires. 

This role offers an incredibly competitive package tailored to your experience and potential, along with a platform to shape and expand your practice within a supportive and entrepreneurial environment. You’ll have the chance to lead on some of the most innovative and impactful renewable energy projects in the market, working with a firm that’s serious about its commitment to sustainability.
