Job Description
In House Conveyancing Solicitor
£60k plus bonus
West Yorkshire
I'm delighted to be working with a growing, forward-thinking mortgage brokerage based in West Yorkshire with ambitious expansion plans. Due to continued growth and a strong pipeline of business, they are bringing their conveyancing work in-house.
Currently, they refer cases to an external firm. They are now looking to appoint a qualified Conveyancing Solicitor or Licensed Conveyancer to establish and lead their new in-house conveyancing function.
This is a unique opportunity to build a department from the ground up within an established, successful financial services business.
This is initially a standalone position where you will:
* Manage a caseload of approximately 30 new residential conveyancing matters per month
* Handle files from instruction through to post-completion
* Deliver high standards of client care aligned with their brokerage service model
* Work closely with mortgage advisers to ensure seamless transactions
* Develop processes, compliance structures, and workflows
* Play a key role in recruiting and building the conveyancing team as the department grows
You will have autonomy, influence, and a genuine opportunity to shape the future of the department.
Essential requirements:
* Qualified Solicitor (England & Wales) or Licensed Conveyancer
* Proven experience handling residential conveyancing matters independently
* Strong knowledge of compliance and regulatory requirements
* Excellent client care and communication skills
* Ability to work autonomously and manage a consistent caseload
Desirable
* Experience in setting up or developing conveyancing processes
* Commercial mindset and interest in business growth
What's on Offer
* Salary up to £60,000 (dependent on experience)
* Performance-related bonus
* Hybrid working (3 days in office, 2 days from home)
* Genuine progression into a Head of Department role
* Opportunity to build and lead your own team
* Supportive, growth-focused business environment
Why Join?
This is more than a conveyancing role — it’s an opportunity to create and lead a new department within a thriving brokerage. You’ll have the backing of an established client base, a steady stream of work, and the autonomy to shape how the service operates.
If you’re an ambitious, qualified conveyancer looking for your next challenge and the chance to make a real impact, I would love to hear from you.
