Senior Associate - Construction (Non-Contentious)

Bristol | Market leading team | National infrastructure and renewables work

An opportunity has opened for a Senior Associate to join one of the UK's top ranked non-contentious construction teams, working from Bristol on nationally significant projects across energy, infrastructure, regeneration and large scale development.

This is a role for someone who wants to be close to the action, negotiating complex procurement contracts, shaping legal strategy, and advising clients who are building the future of the UK's built environment. The work spans renewables, logistics, residential, commercial and mixed use development, with high profile clients and multi party deal structures often involving forward funding and project finance elements.

The team is known for its collaborative culture, strong leadership and genuinely high quality work. You'll work alongside senior lawyers across real estate, disputes, finance and projects in a firm that offers national scale and international reach without the intensity of City life.

What's on offer

• A leading construction practice ranked Band 1 for non-contentious work
• Complex, high value projects and household name clients
• Structured progression and award winning development programmes
• Clear autonomy, early responsibility and supportive leadership
• Competitive salary and benefits, plus hybrid working from a Bristol base
• The ideal candidate will bring strong experience in non-contentious construction matters, whether bespoke or JCT or NEC based, and will be confident handling a broad range of contract types, procurement structures and commercial negotiations. Experience with infrastructure or energy projects would be a bonus but not essential.
• This is a chance to step into a visible and valued senior role in a team that's growing and going places.
