Legal Counsel (Property)
Location: Glasgow
An exciting opportunity to work within an industry-leading developer, constructor and operator of renewable energy projects, with a firm, that is co-managing £1.7bn FTSE-listed renewable fund with investments in wind, solar & energy storage projects in northern Europe.
Summary:
Two to five years PQE lawyer qualified in Scotland and/or England & Wales to provide legal advice and support to relevant business units and working closely with other members of the legal team and the Legal Director. Reporting to the Legal Director, this full-time role will be based in Glasgow and is needed to support an increased portfolio of renewable energy projects, including onshore wind, battery storage and solar across the UK and Ireland.
The role will mainly assist/support the development teams (in particular the property managers) in a large group of commercial and technical teams. The role will also have the opportunities to liaise with and work alongside other members of their legal team.
The role will focus primarily on property and planning work within the business throughout the UK, to include transactional work on major projects and carrying out internal reviews of documentation being dealt with by external solicitors. In addition, the role will involve providing general ad hoc legal and commercial advice typical of an in-house position as well as dealing with property and planning issues specific to the renewable energy industry on a wide variety of renewable energy projects, including onshore wind, battery storage and solar. The role will also involve instructing and managing external legal counsel in specialist areas and major transactions/projects.
Essential:
Must have post qualification experience in property and ideally also in planning.
Computer literate with knowledge of Microsoft Office.
Ideal but not essential:
Experience of working in the renewable energy industry and/or development work.
Dual-qualification (qualified in both Scotland and in England & Wales) would be beneficial as work is cross-border, otherwise a willingness to become dual-qualified.

Since then we have been joined by some of the best construction and engineering recruiters from around the world, and developed a few great new ones internally over the last 7 years ourselves. We now have over 50 staff operating from 6 countries and continuing to expand fast.
