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.
