Formed via a merger in 2020, Moore Barlow is a leading law firm with an aim to be the best law firm to work for regionally. We are a career firm, providing access to high-quality work, long-term career opportunities and an environment built on the premise of being “human first” in everything we do. Put simply,
we care as much about your career as you do.

Chambers & Partners, including recognition for our work across property and land related matters.

More About The Plot Sales Team
Our highly-experienced and leading Plot Sales Team, led by Zoe Owen, is a nationally-recognised team that provides a holistic and integrated service, working closely with our specialist Land Development Team, to developers looking to sell individual plots that comprise a much larger development.
Given the complex nature of modern-day developments, the variety of plots and property types, as well as the time pressures associated with the plot sale process, our team’s success is built on expertise, proactivity, and a genuine understanding of all client’s unique circumstances and objectives.
It is through this approach that the team have established themselves as a trusted partner of a variety of developers; ranging from large household name housebuilders, through to smaller “one-off” developers.
Day To Day
As a Lawyer within the Plot Sales Team you will, with the support of a dedicated Legal Assistant, manage your own caseload of plot sales transactions. These transactions will be numerous and varied, and you will work exclusively with a specific group of clients, building close working relationships with key figures such as sales reps in order to fully understand that client’s objectives and ensure a smooth and successful transaction.
This position will offer you an excellent opportunity for further professional growth and development. You will receive extensive mentoring and support from highly-experienced colleagues in the team as you carve out your own reputation as an expert in this area.
What We Look For
- Unlike many of our “fee-earning” vacancies, this is a position that does not require a specific legal qualification.
- Therefore, we welcome applications from Solicitors, Legal Executives, Conveyancers, and those who are “qualified by experience”; in short, it is about your experience, as opposed to your qualifications.
- While we are relaxed on the qualifications side of things, we do envisage that this position would only be suitable for those with at least one years’ worth of experience managing Plot Sales transactions, or similar (such as Residential Conveyancing).
- You will be calm under pressure, adopt a naturally proactive approach to your work, and have the ability to adapt to changing priorities at short notice.
- We are human-first in everything we do and seek people who share this trait. You will therefore have great communication skills, a passion for helping clients achieve their goals and the ability to think creatively.
- Whilst this position is offered full-time, we offer a split of working from home and the office. We are a flexible team and are open to considering alternative working patterns.
If you have the required skills and experience and are keen to advance your career as part of our leading Plot Sales Team, then we strongly encourage you to apply.
