Helping to improve legal templates, processes and guidance across the business.
Providing practical legal advice that enables projects to progress efficiently while managing risk.
Keeping up to date with changes in construction law and building safety legislation.

What we're looking for

You'll ideally have:

Qualified Solicitor in England & Wales.
Around 2 years' PQE (applications from those with slightly more or less experience are welcomed).
Experience in construction law gained within private practice or an in-house legal team.
Experience drafting and negotiating construction documentation.
Strong commercial awareness and the ability to explain complex legal issues in a practical way.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.

It would be great if you also have

Experience acting for developers, housebuilders or contractors.
Knowledge of JCT contracts and associated construction documentation.
Experience supporting residential development projects.
Exposure to construction due diligence on acquisitions and disposals.
Previous in-house experience or a genuine desire to move in-house.
An understanding of building safety legislation and development delivery.

Why Dandara?

Dandara is one of the UK's most respected independent property developers, delivering high-quality homes, Build to Rent communities and regeneration projects across the UK.

Joining our Legal team means you'll:

Work on high-profile, complex residential developments.
Enjoy genuine variety across construction, development and commercial legal work.
Be supported by experienced in-house lawyers committed to your development.
Build strong relationships with senior stakeholders across the business.
