The leading provider of water infrastructure solutions for the South of England is seeking to hire into its legal team, a qualified solicitor who specialises in Engineering and Construction.

Consequently the legal team has been growing and there is a requirement for a dedicated engineering and construction solicitor to be the main point of technical legal contact on all the various project and engineering legal issues across the South East of England. This is an outstanding role for such a lawyer to move in house and be the main lawyer responsible for the multiple new construction projects that are happening.
