Senior Associate / Legal Director, Transactional Construction – Edinburgh / Glasgow

Practice Area: Energy, Projects, Infrastructure, Non-contentious, Investment, business development, Commercial Contracts, Commercial Property, Construction, Corporate, Transport
Level: Associate, Full Time
Section: Law Firm
Location: East Lothian, Scotland, Central Belt, Edinburgh, Glasgow
Ref: FW9091

Our client, a leading UK law firm, is seeking a senior construction lawyer to join its growing transactional team. With offices across Scotland and a strong presence in both domestic and international markets, the firm has experienced notable growth in recent years.

The role involves advising on a broad range of matters across commercial development, infrastructure, and engineering. Clients include major developers, contractors, and funders, and the team is engaged on some of the most significant projects in the UK and beyond.

This role is ideal for a Senior Associate or Legal Director with at least 7–8 years’ experience in transactional construction law. You will advise on all aspects of construction contracts, contribute to high-profile projects—particularly in the energy and infrastructure space—and work closely with a market-leading real estate team.

You will be supported by a collaborative and forward-thinking team culture, with flexible working options available. Although ideally based in Edinburgh or Glasgow, applications from candidates in other locations, including those seeking remote roles, are welcomed.

This is an excellent opportunity to step into a senior position within a thriving team, where your skills will be recognised, your career will be supported, and your contributions will directly impact some of the most exciting projects in the sector.

If this role could be of interest, please do not hesitate to contact either Teddie or Frasia for an initial and confidential discussion. (Assignment 16495)
