I'm currently working with a well-established regional law firm that’s looking to strengthen its Residential Property team with an experienced Residential Conveyancing Solicitor, Licensed Conveyancer, or Chartered Legal Executive.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who’s confident managing their own files and looking for a genuinely supportive and collaborative environment — with flexibility, progression, and a healthy caseload (but not overwhelming).
📍 Location: Flexibility between two regional offices, with a hybrid/home-working setup available
🕒 Hours: Full-time, 37.5 hours per week (Monday–Friday), standard working hours around 9:00–17:30
What the role involves:
You’ll be managing your own end-to-end residential caseload, covering a wide range of matters including:
* Freehold and leasehold sales and purchases
* Remortgages and transfers of equity
* Shared ownership, lease extensions, and new builds
* More complex work, such as trust, probate, matrimonial, and attorney-related matters
You'll also handle post-completion responsibilities (Land Registry applications, MR01 submissions, title registration etc.) and will be expected to work fairly independently — although there’s always team support when needed.
This is a client-facing role, so confidence in communicating clearly and professionally is important. The team values accuracy, attention to detail, and a proactive approach to keeping matters moving.
You may also be asked to provide some technical support or guidance to junior members of the team, depending on your level of experience.
🔹 What they're looking for:
* A qualified Solicitor, Licensed Conveyancer, or CILEX with strong experience in residential conveyancing
* Proven ability to manage your own caseload from instruction through to post-completion
* Comfortable dealing with more technical or unusual matters — or willing to learn and grow into them
* Confident using case management systems and general legal software (Word, Outlook etc.)
* Strong communication and organisational skills
🔹 What’s on offer:
* Competitive salary depending on experience
* Hybrid working and flexible arrangements where possible
* Enhanced holiday allowance + additional wellbeing and family-friendly benefits
* Private healthcare or cashback scheme
* Pension contribution
* Regular training, mentoring, and opportunities for progression within the team
* A culture that values quality over volume, and supports development at every stage
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys residential conveyancing and is looking to join a team where they’ll be trusted to do good work, encouraged to grow professionally, and supported in balancing work and life.
