This is a varied and fast-paced opportunity to learn from experienced colleagues, build confidence with clients and play an active part in a specialist area of property law.

You will gain exposure to both the practical and advisory sides of the work, developing the skills needed to support matters from the early pre-court stage through to claim progression and client guidance.

Supporting our solicitors as they conduct claims for possession through to eviction, if required.
Contributing to the legal advice line once fully trained, delivering clear and accurate advice over the phone.
Managing your workload and recording your time efficiently, ensuring deadlines and client expectations are met.
Working collaboratively within the Property Lettings & Revenue Team to deliver responsive, high-quality client service.

The ideal candidate will be:

Educated to degree level in law (or equivalent qualification) with a strong interest in property law and enforcement.
