Commercial Real Estate Law Clerk

Senior Law Clerk — Commercial Real Estate | Real Estate & Banking Department

Our client a leading firm is looking for an Senior Law Clerk — 8+ years deep in commercial real estate, with real ownership of transactions from open to close.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to be handed a checklist. You'll have complete carriage of files: title and off-title searches, drafting closing documents, running due diligence, managing requisitions and title repair, right through to registration. If you're the kind of clerk who sees three steps ahead on a file before anyone asks — who flags the issue before it becomes a problem — this is built for you.

You'll be trusted to run purchases, sales, financings, leasing, conveyancing and development-related work (including title conversions) largely independently, while working alongside a team of lawyers, clerks and legal administrative assistants who rely on you to keep things moving.

You'll have:

• 8+ years handling commercial real estate transactions, start to finish
• Deep comfort with due diligence, title/off-title review, and requisitions
• Drafting skill — agreements, closing docs, correspondence, from precedent or direction
• The organizational discipline to run multiple files without dropping a thread
• A mature, strikingly confident approach to client and opposing counsel communication
• Comfort taking direction on strategy while owning execution

The role day to day:

• Full carriage of transactions — searches, drafting, closing, registration
• Direct liaison with clients and government authorities
• Managing deadlines that don't move
• Working independently, but never in isolation
• Three days a week in office

This is a role for a superstar clerk who's ready to be trusted with real responsibility — not just tasked with paperwork. If that's you, please apply.
