We’re looking for a lawyer with significant experience in property work, a real understanding of the needs and challenges facing churches and Christian charities, and a sense of conviction and calling in seeking to serve the gospel of Christ through your work. We’re a remote-first organisation, and therefore we can be flexible about your working hours and location.
We see great opportunities to grow our client base, and therefore our impact, as demand for our services increases and we improve our visibility to other church networks and charities. As we look to meet growing demand, we have been seeking to grow our small but skilled team of property lawyers, making a recent appointment and with another team member joining us before the summer.
We’re now looking to recruit a long-term head of team, replacing our current head who was able to join us on a fixed-term basis.
As Head of Property, you will be responsible for growing our team and delivering excellent service to our increasing and richly diverse client base. You will also manage your own varied and deeply rewarding caseload, directly advancing the gospel through your Christ-centred legal expertise.
We have already seen amazing growth in our service and reach, and we look ahead with humble excitement about where God will lead us. Come and be a part of it!
This is a full-time and permanent position, based either from home, in our Market Harborough office or Nottingham Hub.
There is an occupational requirement that the job holder must be a Christian in full agreement with our Basis of Faith.
For a more detailed job description, application pack or an informal conversation about the role, please email info@edwardconnor.com or call us on 01858 411568.
We understand that Christian organisations want to be biblically faithful as well as legally compliant. That’s why we think it matters that your legal advisers share your gospel priorities.
Edward Connor Solicitors is uniquely a Christian charity as well as a law firm. We share your aim of advancing Christ’s kingdom and we want to use our legal expertise to help your ministry to flourish.
Our aim is to advance the gospel by enabling Christian ministries to be properly established and good stewards of their resources. We will help you to be faithful to Christ by seeing your legal obligations from a biblical perspective, in everything from your governance structure to your employment policies.
Working with churches and Christian organisations is all that we do. This means we have a wealth of experience in precisely the kind of issues that you are likely to face – and which many other solicitors will not often come across. We are aware of the pitfalls and issues you will need to address to achieve the outcome you are looking for.
We are fully regulated as a law firm, and our team of lawyers and consultants have had successful careers in a variety of secular firms and organisations before choosing to serve Christ at Edward Connor Solicitors. You will have the benefit of experts in their field who are committed to serving Jesus, through providing the thorough, robust advice you need.
