A leading Canadian business law firm with a well-regarded real estate group is seeking a real estate associate. The practice acts for a sophisticated client base across the full spectrum of commercial real estate work, including acquisitions and dispositions, development, financing, leasing, and land use planning across multiple asset classes. The group is integrated nationally and well-positioned to act on complex, high-value mandates for institutional clients, REITs, developers, and lenders.
The successful candidate will have three to five years of experience in commercial real estate, with a transactional practice and a working knowledge of the asset classes and deal structures that define the institutional market. Experience across more than one of the core areas, whether acquisitions, financing, or development, is an advantage. This is a group where associates work directly with clients and partners on substantive mandates from early in their tenure, with the file quality and breadth to build genuine depth in the practice.
For the right associate, this is a platform with few peers in the Canadian market. The firm’s real estate practice sits within a full-service national firm, which means the work regularly intersects with corporate, tax, and financing counsel in ways that broaden the practice beyond pure real estate. That integration, combined with a client base operating at the institutional level, makes this a place where an associate can develop into a genuine market name.
