HSPG: A social impact real estate company

Our mission is simple: Building partnerships, creating homes, developing communities.

There is a critical shortage of affordable housing across the UK. We partner with Local Authorities, housebuilders and institutional investors to acquire, deliver and manage high-quality homes that meet local demand while creating long-term social value across multiple tenures.

At the centre of our Living Sector is PPHA, the Group’s Registered Provider, which delivers Section 106 and grant-funded Affordable Rent and Shared Ownership homes. By working collaboratively with our partners, we are increasing the supply of quality affordable housing where it is needed most.

PPHA’s north star is to create homes for more than 8,000 families and individuals by 2030, helping to address the housing crisis while delivering sustainable, long-term returns for our investment partners.

Core Behaviours:

Core mission​

As Paralegal, your core mission is to support the successful execution of HSPG’s real estate transactions, ensuring legal processes progress efficiently and accurately at every stage.

You will be an integral member of the legal team, supporting the General Counsel and Legal Counsel to progress a wide range of transactional and operational legal matters across the business, including loan drawdowns, acquisitions, disposals, leasing and legal administration. You will enable commercial decision-making by keeping documentation, searches and process on track.

This is a hands-on and execution-focused role. You will take ownership of the detail and coordination required to keep matters moving – ensuring nothing is dropped or left unresolved.

You will work closely with internal teams, external lawyers and stakeholders and will proactively manage relationships and hold all parties to account to achieve seamless transaction execution aligned with HSPG’s strategic objectives.

You will support with legal research, drafting and process improvement across the legal function, helping the business scale efficiently with the implementation of innovative and tech-enabled processes and strategies.​

Accountability​

You are accountable for:

  • Preparing and progressing legal documentation and supporting due diligence across the group’s acquisitions, disposals and financing arrangements
  • Proactively working with external advisers and pursuing outstanding deal items to ensure timely execution
  • Supporting the legal team in providing clear, structured guidance to stakeholder

You are not accountable for:

  • Assessing the financial viability of transactions
  • Duplicating work undertaken by external lawyers
  • Providing formal legal advice or legal judgements

Specific experience​

  1. At least 2 years’ experience working as a paralegal doing transactional work, whether at a law firm or in-house.
  2. Experience supporting residential and/or commercial real estate portfolio acquisitions, disposals, and financing is strongly preferred.

Obsess:

You obsess over:

  • Communication: you have excellent written and verbal communication skills – tailoring your communication style to your audience.
  • Organising: you focus on organising and connecting information across legal documents, so complex detail is easy for the wider team and non-lawyers to follow and act on.
  • Efficiency: you are obsessed with achieving optimal efficiency for you and your team, constantly iterating systems and legal processes accordingly.

Excel:

You excel at:

  • Project management: you keep multiple transactions moving at once, tracking key dates, milestones and outstanding actions across every matter. You prioritise effectively under competing deadlines.
  • Meticulous: you have phenomenal attention to detail and ensure that legal documentation is watertight and captures all the information required.
  • Resilient: you have the capacity to keep making informed and timely decisions whilst under pressure, and you truly enjoy providing dependable, calm support to internal and external stakeholders throughout a transaction.

90-day wins​

Early traction and strategic control.​

  • Gain a solid understanding of HSPG's strategy and mission and be able to take ownership of discrete workstreams.
  • Foster good working relationships with our main panel firms.
  • Support the legal team in progressing: one property acquisition to exchange/completion; and one financing drawdown to completion.
  • Have assisted in streamlining at least one significant transaction process to increase efficiency (including incorporating AI into our processes).

Material impact and results within first 12 months.​

  • Have a comprehensive understanding of the wider business and support at least 15 acquisition and/or financing transactions to completion in an efficient manner.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
