Real Estate Counsel

The Company

Sacco Mann is delighted to be working alongside a true North West success story, which has a highly recognisable name in the FMCG sector. With a turnover in excess of £4.6b and over 600 stores, the group is in rude health with tangible ambitions to continue their growth.

The Role

There now exists a rare opportunity for a real estate solicitor to compliment the established In-house legal team, who will manage property transactions, including complex acquisitions, disposals, and lease negotiations.

The position would suit a confident and self-sufficient transactional property lawyer, who would thrive in a position where you can take ownership of these transactions, proving integral to the process and liaising with key stakeholders, the Executive and Senior management Team.
