Full job description

We are seeking an experienced and detail‑oriented residential conveyancer to join our client's busy, client-focused property team. The successful candidate will manage residential property transactions from initial instruction to completion, delivering high standards of client care, maintaining compliant and audit-ready files, and supporting fee earners with efficient case management. This role offers professional development, exposure to a varied caseload and opportunities to contribute to process improvements. Hybrid working arrangements may be available depending on team requirements.

Key responsibilities:

Handle a caseload of residential property matters including sales, purchases, remortgages and transfers of equity; manage each matter from instruction through to completion in line with firm procedures and client expectations. Experience in new build and unregistered would also be desirable.
Provide clear, professional and timely communications to clients, lenders, estate agents, other solicitors, surveyors and third parties; update clients regularly and manage expectations throughout the transaction.
Prepare and check legal documentation including contracts, transfer deeds, post-completion documentation and settlement statements; ensure accuracy, consistent presentation and timely execution.
Carry out detailed file management and case progression tasks: open and close matters, maintain electronic and paper files, record accurate file notes and ensure documents are saved to the correct locations in the case management system.
Undertake client identity checks and carry out anti-money laundering (AML) and source of funds checks in accordance with firm policy and regulatory requirements; escalate any issues promptly.
Liaise with lenders and handle mortgage pack requirements, obtain mortgage offers and ensure conditions are met; manage financial reconciliations including client and office account transactions in line with the SRA rules.
Coordinate exchange and completion processes, prepare completion monies statements, requisitions on title and ensure timely execution of searches, enquiries and requisitions.
Support billing activities by recording time and disbursements accurately, assisting with fee notes and providing information required for billing and trust accounting processes.
Contribute to continuous improvement by identifying opportunities to streamline conveyancing workflows, update precedents and support technology rollouts and process changes.
Provide mentorship and support to more junior members of the team, assist with training and share knowledge of best practice and compliance obligations.

Key skills and experience required:

Proven experience in residential conveyancing within a law firm, conveyancing practice or regulated environment; ability to manage a varied caseload with minimal supervision.
Strong knowledge of the conveyancing process, mortgage transactions, searches, land registration and post-completion formalities.
Confident and professional communicator with excellent client care skills and the ability to liaise effectively with clients, lenders, estate agents and other external contacts.
High level of accuracy and attention to detail when preparing and reviewing legal documents and financial information.
Good understanding of AML requirements and practice procedures relating to client identity checks, source of funds and trust accounting compliance.
Proficient IT skills, including experience with Microsoft Office applications, case management and document management systems; willingness to learn new software.
Ability to prioritise competing tasks, work to deadlines and remain calm under pressure; strong organisational and time management skills.
Professional, discreet and reliable with a solutions-focused approach and a collaborative attitude to supporting the wider team.
