Offer description

We are seeking a conscientious Conveyancing Paralegal to join our client's busy, client-focused property team. The successful candidate will provide high-quality paralegal and administrative support across a varied residential property caseload, contribute to excellent client care, ensure compliance with regulatory and firm procedures, and help maintain efficient team workflows. This role offers exposure to a wide range of conveyancing matters including purchases, sales, remortgages, transfers of equity and leasehold work, and provides hybrid working arrangements. Key responsibilities: Support fee earners by progressing residential property transactions from instruction through to completion and post-completion tasks, ensuring matters are advanced promptly and accurately under appropriate supervision. Carry out client identity checks and assist with anti‑money laundering (AML) compliance, maintaining audit‑ready documentation and accurate records in line with firm procedures. Open and maintain electronic case files, record clear case notes, milestones and actions, and assist with file reviews to support smooth progression of matters. Liaise professionally with clients, estate agents, mortgage lenders, surveyors, HM Land Registry, local authorities and other third parties to obtain documentation and chase outstanding items. Prepare routine correspondence, client engagement letters, contract packs and standard documentation using firm precedents, checking for accuracy and completeness. Prepare and check basic completion statements, process disbursement requests and client account transactions, and assist with billing and fee recovery activities in accordance with firm policies. Respond to routine client and third‑party enquiries by telephone and email, escalating complex issues to fee earners promptly and keeping clients informed of progress. Support continuous improvement by identifying administrative efficiencies, contributing to the update of precedents and assisting with the adoption of conveyancing technology and workflow tools. Provide support to junior colleagues and assist with induction activities, sharing knowledge of firm procedures and best practice where required. Key skills and experience required: Previous experience in a paralegal, assistant or administrative role within a conveyancing or residential property team, ideally in a law firm or conveyancing practice. Good understanding of residential property processes and common transaction types (sales, purchases, remortgages, transfers of equity and leasehold matters). Familiarity with AML and client identification requirements and experience maintaining accurate, audit‑ready case files. Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities, meet deadlines and maintain attention to detail across multiple matters. Confident and professional communicator with good interpersonal skills and the ability to liaise effectively with clients, colleagues and external contacts. Proactive, reliable and solutions‑focused with a willingness to develop technical knowledge, embrace new systems and support team improvements. Benefits and working arrangements: Hybrid working model with a mix of office and remote working as agreed with the team. Competitive salary and benefits package commensurate with experience. Access to training and development to support career progression within the property team. Supportive, client‑focused environment that values continuous improvement and collaborative working.
