️ Practice Development Lawyer (PDL) | Real Estate | London

I’m working with a leading international law firm looking to appoint a Practice Development Lawyer (PDL) into their Real Estate team.

Given how candidate-short the PDL market is, the team are open-minded - this could suit an experienced Real Estate lawyer looking to step away from fee earning, or an established PDL ready for a new platform.

 The Role

A strategic, high-impact position supporting the wider Real Estate group:

  • Advising on technical legal queries
  • Leading on legal research and tracking developments
  • Producing client briefings and thought leadership
  • Delivering training (internal & client-facing)
  • Managing and evolving precedents and know-how
  • Drafting practice notes
  • Supporting innovation and process improvement projects
  • Working closely with fee earners to stay aligned with the market
  • Identifying and mitigating risk issues
  • Managing third-party providers

 About You

  • England & Wales qualified with strong Real Estate experience
  • Existing PDL/PSL experience or a genuine interest in moving into a knowledge role
  • Experience contributing to know-how, training or client content
  • Commercially aware with a strong understanding of the property market
  • Confident collaborating across teams and seniority levels

 What’s on Offer

  • Join a top-tier international firm
  • A visible, strategic role within the team
  • High-quality work and exposure
  • Supportive, forward-thinking environment
  • Competitive package + strong benefits

 Why consider this move?


PDL roles like this don’t come up often , especially with this level of quality, visibility and flexibility.
