Tollers LLP is a respected, forward-thinking law firm where client care sits at the heart of everything we do. We advise individuals and families at pivotal moments in their lives, and our Conveyancing practice has built a strong reputation across Hertfordshire and beyond for delivering seamless, expert guidance through property transactions. This is a firm that values integrity, clarity, and genuine partnership with our clients—and it shows in the quality of work we undertake and the relationships we build.
We are seeking a Solicitor/Licensed Conveyancer/Legal Executive to join our established conveyancing team in our Stevenage Office. We are looking to appoint a Team Leader who is able to manage & mentor staff with the team. This is a genuine opportunity to develop your expertise within a supportive environment where your contribution will be immediately visible and valued. You'll work on a varied caseload across the full spectrum of residential property transactions—from straightforward purchases and sales to more complex matters involving leasehold properties, new build acquisitions, and remortgages. There's real scope here to refine your technical knowledge, build your own client relationships, and take on increasing responsibility as you progress.
Your day-to-day work will involve managing client transactions from instruction through to completion and beyond. You'll conduct property searches and enquiries, review and advise on contracts and supporting documentation, identify and resolve title issues, liaise with estate agents, mortgage lenders, and other practitioners, and ensure smooth financial flows at completion. You'll take the lead on matters within your portfolio, exercising your professional judgment while having access to more senior colleagues for guidance on complex issues. Strong communication is essential—you'll be explaining legal concepts and conveyancing procedures to clients who are often navigating this process for the first time, making clarity and reassurance key to your role.
