Job Description
The Firm
Our client is a specialist property and private client firm with over 20 years of history in the heart of Edinburgh. Located a stone’s throw from the city centre-they offer the perfect balance of a central location with a close-knit, supportive team culture.
The firm is currently in an exciting period of growth following a recent acquisition of another business. As the senior team looks toward the future, our client is seeking a motivated Conveyancing Solicitor to join them and help drive the next generation of the practice.
The Role
This isn't a "cog in the machine" role. Because this is a boutique practice, you will have the opportunity to be involved in the entire process, building genuine relationships with an extensive list of repeat clients and referrals.
You will lead a dedicated team (supported by your own legal secretary), overseeing a busy domestic conveyancing caseload. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants more autonomy and a clear path to leadership.
Why Join Our Client?
The firm prides itself on a culture that rewards hard work but knows when to switch off:
· Fast-Track Progression: They mean it. A current Director joined as a recent post-grad and reached Director level within five years.
· Work-Life Balance: 9-5 hours, a monthly wellbeing hour, and the option to work from home one day per week (post-probation).
· The Perks: A social environment with regular Friday drinks, annual summer outings, and a Cycle to Work scheme.
· Peace of Mind: 5% employer pension contribution, 3x salary Death in Service benefit, and a comprehensive Cash Health Plan.
· Holiday: 30 days total (22 floating days plus 8 fixed public holidays).
What We’re Looking For
· A qualified Solicitor with a solid background in Scottish Residential Conveyancing.
· Someone who enjoys client interaction and managing a process from start to finish.
· A team player ready to mentor junior staff and secretaries.
· Ambition to grow within a firm that is actively succession planning.
Package
· Competitive salary commensurate with your experience.
· Free conveyancing fees for your own property transactions while employed by our client.
