Join the Real Estate practice group of a leading large law firm.

• Excellent clients
• Supportive, friendly team
• Outstanding professional development and benefits

Simpson Grierson is home to the largest infrastructure group in New Zealand.  True specialists, this team covers the full spectrum of property and infrastructure activities.

Our real estate work in Wellington is expanding, and we have a fantastic opportunity for an intermediate property specialist to join our national Real Estate Practice Group, with 3+ years' PQE. The work is broad and includes property development, commercial leasing, subdivisions, acquisitions and disposals of commercial property, for public and private sector clients throughout the country. While there is a transactional element to the role, we are looking for someone who also has excellent research and opinion-writing skills.  You might have a law firm or in-house background.

You'll be bright, motivated and switched on, and be able to handle high volume work autonomously.  You'll be a team player, keen to mentor and actively support and develop junior solicitors within this high performing, friendly and supportive team. 

This opportunity would suit those looking to further their careers with access to excellent work, someone who wants to add big firm experience to their CV or is returning from travels.  This is a real opportunity to help with the continued growth of this side of our infrastructure practice. 

We offer outstanding professional development opportunities, a comprehensive wellbeing programme, competitive salaries and market-leading benefits.  We won large firm Employer of Choice at the 2022 and 2023 Law Awards and Employer of Choice at the 2023 HR Awards NZ. We are proud of our diverse and inclusive culture and our reputation for putting people first in everything we do.

Please note: Simpson Grierson's offices are closed for the summer break from 21 December, reopening on Monday 13th January.  If you apply over this period we'll be in touch with you once the office reopens. Meri Kirihimete!
