Job Title: Conveyancing / Residential Property Paralegal x2
Location: Central London
Hybrid: 3 Office / 2 Home
A commercial, forward thinking law firm are looking for both a residential property paralegal (with fee earning experience), and a post-completion administrator to join their team and deliver a high-quality service and care to the firm’s established client base.
Residential Property Paralegal:
Salary: to £40,000
You will be running your own caseload from instruction to post-completion and dealing with both sales and purchases of properties. As you will be running your own caseload (with some supervision) you must be able to hit the ground running with the ability to deal with the full residential transaction.
Key duties will include:
* Submitting AP1 and SDLT forms
* Drafting reports on title
* Liaising with clients and third parties (mortgage lenders etc.)
* Dealing with enquiries
* File opening
* Companies House Registrations
* File closing including matter balances
* Scheduling of deeds to mortgage lenders
* Drafting agreements, deeds and contracts
* Reviewing and reporting on title
It is essential that you have at least 6 months’ experience as a residential property paralegal and excellent drafting skills, attention to detail and be client focussed. Exceptional communication and client skills are also essential as you will be expected to build rapport and relationships with established and new clients and act on your own initiative. You must also be able to conduct searches with minimal supervision.
Excellent opportunity for a residential property paralegal to gain hands on experience and work with more autonomy and responsibility in an established London law firm.
Post Completion Administrator:
You will be covering all aspects of post-completion processes for the residential team.
Duties will include:
* Preparing and filing SDLT forms
* MR01 registration with Companies House
* Registrations via the Land Registry portal
* Preparing and serving Notices on completion
* Placing Indemnities on risk
* Being pro-active chasing other party’s solicitors and/or dealing with Land Registry’s requisition(s)
* Scheduling deeds and documents to lenders and clients
It is essential that you have experience in post-completion work, have completed (or are currently undertaking) the LPC and have experience in working with a high-volume caseload. Progression available for the right candidate as although it will be strictly administrative to start with, the firm will look to progress the successful candidate into a full paralegal role in time.
