Commercial Real Estate Lawyers

We are recruiting for lawyers at all levels to join one of Scotland’s leading Commercial Real Estate teams. We operate in all the key sectors in the Scottish economy and roles are available in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness.

We are growing the team to meet client demand and market opportunities.

Our busy team deals with commercial property purchases and sales, leases and lease management work, corporate support, investment, development, portfolio management, telecoms and funding; offering great opportunities for responsive and driven lawyers who will be given direct client contact, business development opportunities and support to make the most of their talent.

Let your ambitions and ours go hand in hand

At Harper Macleod you’ll be part of a collective effort that is never satisfied: celebrating the successes and inspiring one another to always improve. You want to deliver extraordinary results for your clients. We want to deliver extraordinary opportunities for you and encourage you to make a difference.

Harper Macleod’s culture is the sum of the actions of the people who make up our business – it’s built around taking calculated risks and pushing for innovative solutions. You know the law, but you also know that there’s much more to being a lawyer than that.

You know that doing things the right way is always the best way – the right things for clients, colleagues, and our communities. We will never compromise on this.

In 2025, we were proud to be named the best law firm in Scotland by the prestigious Chambers UK to go alongside many other accolades. A year earlier, we were named ESG Firm of the Year and the only Scottish law firm to be included in Legal 500’s Green Guide, both for the second year running.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, active colleague engagement, wellbeing, sustainability & CSR programs, and the opportunity to develop your career.

We believe the best is yet to come for Harper Macleod. If this sounds like the type of firm you’d like to be part of, maybe the best is yet to come for you?
