We stand out for our consistently excellent advice: we provide technical excellence, experience and crucially, we demonstrate real insight into our clients and what matters to them. Our knowledge of our chosen sectors and markets, and our investment in our client relationships set us apart. We are a natural choice for FTSE100 and other high profile clients.
The Team
Launched in 2010, our well-established, high performing and busy Transaction Services Team (TST) helps Addleshaw Goddard deliver a world class service to its clients. We were the first team of its kind in the UK, and continue to innovate by delivering work in the most efficient way, saving our clients time and money. We are now one of the Firm's biggest groups, with our team being made up of apprentices, paralegals, managers and solicitors. Our team members focus on tasks that are found in a wide variety of legal assignments but which do not necessarily need to be done by qualified lawyers, including process elements of transactional, advisory and contentious work. We are supported by the use of technology and play a key role in enabling Addleshaw Goddard to respond to client demand for more innovative and better value services. The work that comes into the team is varied. Each member of our team is assigned to one of the group aligned subteams. Whilst predominantly carrying out work for your subteam, you can expect to work on a variety of assignments from across all of the Firm's groups, which gives you a good insight into the workings of a commercial law firm. Responsibilities
The Infrastructure, Projects and Energy assignments you will be working on can include the following: Reviewing and reporting on various contracts, agreement(s) and security documents, and other information relevant to transactions. Researching the relevant law for the specific matter which could sit outside of Infrastructure and Energy. Managing electronic data sites, uploading and ordering documentation and liaising with third parties. Assisting with post completion tasks on legal projects, such as creating bibles, drafting Companies House forms and Deeds of Release etc. Working with a group deal team to provide transactional support on IPE projects from initial instruction through to post completion stages. Drafting and producing legal documentation and standard form documents in transactions, primarily for distressed property sales, redemptions and refinances. Reviewing and reporting on security documentation for major financial institutions. Drafting and producing legal documentation for the appointment of insolvency practitioners. Liaising with internal and external parties on various matters. Responsibility for completion of transactions, with assistance as required. Populating contract and document schedules as well as completing contract reviews. Proofreading and cross-checking contracts and other lease reviews. Drafting and producing legal documentation and standard forms. Checking legal documents for quality, consistency and content. Providing support to our clients on-site, where necessary. Any additional tasks as required by the business. Knowledge, Skills and Experience Required
Due to the dynamic nature of the work we do and the clients we seek to serve, the role is not an ordinary "9-5" job. For the right person, this role provides an exciting opportunity to contribute to our proven success by utilising a wide set of skills essential to a career in the TST. A high level of attention to detail. Effective personal, organisational and time management skills, and the ability to juggle multiple demands. Strong written and verbal communication skills, demonstrating an ability to communicate with colleagues at all levels. A positive, enthusiastic and proactive approach to work. A strong work ethic and a desire to develop and succeed. The ability to work to tight timescales with a sense of urgency. Common sense, commerciality and the ability to exercise sound judgment. An interest in, or experience of, using technology to deliver work. Previous Infrastructure, Projects and Energy paralegal experience is of relevance, but not essential. Aside from a competitive salary and flexible benefits package, you'll get fantastic opportunities to support some of the UK's largest businesses, as well as the potential for exciting internal and client secondments. With our focus on continuous development and progression, we created a career development framework and training programme specifically for the TST. As part of that framework you'll have the opportunity to have a career conversation every 4 months to ensure we're supporting you to meet your development goals and to discuss your progression. In addition, you'll have access to our internal training contract application process, legal qualification sponsorship and management or technical development programme.
