Senior Residential Property Solicitor (New Build)
£47k–£68k + Hybrid/Remote
Tired of doing the legal work and all the admin that comes with it?
You didn’t spend years qualifying just to chase ID checks, juggle onboarding, and mop up post-completion admin.
This firm knows that and has built a new build property team that lets lawyers focus on the law while specialist teams handle the rest.
Why this firm is different (and better)
A genuinely manageable caseload
New build transactions can get hectic — but here you won’t be carrying everything alone. You’ll share files with a junior colleague so matters keep moving without everything landing on your desk at once.
Specialist support teams that actually support
Dedicated teams take care of AML, onboarding and completion tasks. No more spending evenings chasing documents or clearing admin backlogs.
Flexibility that works around real life
Hybrid or remote — whichever works best for you. School run? Caring responsibilities? Life outside work is respected here.
A reputation clients genuinely trust
Thousands of five-star client reviews place the firm among the most highly rated property practices in the UK. Lawyers stay here too — no revolving door, no endless internal politics.
The usual new build headaches? Already solved
They’ve invested in smart systems and streamlined processes so plot purchases, exchanges and completions run smoothly rather than turning into daily firefighting.
Holiday cover that actually covers you
Take time off without worrying about your files piling up. A dedicated cover team keeps matters progressing while you properly switch off.
What you’ll do (without the admin overload)
• Manage a balanced caseload focused on new build property transactions
• Guide clients through plot purchases from reservation through to completion
• Work closely with your junior colleague to maintain continuity for clients
• Let specialist onboarding and completion teams handle the admin-heavy stages
• Access mentoring and training whenever you want to deepen your expertise
What you’ll get
• £47,000 – £68,000 salary
• 30 days holiday + your birthday off
• Clear progression pathway based on merit
• Fully funded training and professional courses
• Free parking (plus full remote equipment if working from home)
• Hybrid or fully remote options
Who you are
• Qualified Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer
• Around 10 years’ experience in residential property
• Comfortable handling new build transactions
• Ready to get your evenings back and work in a team that actually supports you
