A growing national firm is adding a partner-track associate to the transactional real estate group in its Philadelphia office — with a deal sheet that runs coast to coast, not just down the block. This is a seat for a mid-level associate who already has real commercial real estate reps and wants national-scale work, real responsibility, and a clear line of sight to partnership inside a collaborative, client-first group. If you've been doing solid deal work at a regional shop and want a bigger platform without losing the team-first culture, this is worth a look. The work You'll work on commercial real estate matters across the country, including: • Drafting and negotiating purchase and sale agreements and the full set of ancillary documents • Commercial leasing, landlord- and tenant-side • Real estate financing • Development and land-use / permitting work (a strong plus, not a requirement) The point of difference here is reach: a three-to-four-year associate gets exposure to sophisticated, multi-jurisdiction deals that most associates at this level don't see until much later. Who this is for You likely bring: • Three to four years in real estate–focused practice, with genuine purchase-and-sale, leasing, and financing experience • Sharp writing and the kind of attention to detail that survives a closing checklist • Very strong academic credentials • A collaborative instinct and an interest in building, not just billing — this is a partner-track role and the firm hires accordingly The platform A growing, full-service national firm with a deliberately collaborative culture — the sort of place that pairs the work and resources of a large platform with a group small enough that you're a contributor, not a cog. The trajectory is real: this is an investment in someone they expect to make partner, not a body to fill a billing gap. How you'll work Hybrid by design — attorneys work from the office three days a week. It's a genuine attempt to balance in-person collaboration and mentorship against the flexibility that makes a practice sustainable over the long haul, rather than a policy that pays lip service to either. Why Philadelphia Philadelphia is one of the strongest mid-Atlantic legal markets, with a deep commercial real estate sector and a cost of living that compares favorably to New York, DC, and Boston — without giving up the deal flow or the platform. For a real estate associate building a career and a life at the same time, that combination is hard to beat. Compensation and benefits Market-competitive compensation calibrated to the Philadelphia market for a real estate associate at this level — a class-year-based salary, an annual bonus tied to performance and hours, and origination credit as you begin to build your own client relationships. The package includes: • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance • 401(k) with firm contribution and profit sharing • Generous paid time off and paid parental leave • Life insurance and short- and long-term disability coverage • Health savings and flexible spending accounts • Employee assistance and wellbeing programs • Professional development support, including bar dues and CLE Apply in confidence Interested, or want to understand the role before you decide anything?
