Full job description

Join our client's highly experienced Property team at a Top 200 law firm, supporting new build and development projects from land acquisition and planning through to completion and post‑completion matters.

Assist with title due diligence and reporting: review searches, title documents, covenants, easements and planning conditions; prepare title reports and risk summaries for fee earners and clients.
Coordinate with clients, developers, housebuilders, lenders, planning consultants, architects, local authorities, and other third parties to obtain documentation, progress conditions and resolve transactional queries.
Support lender and SDLT processes including preparation of loan documentation packs, completion statements, Land Registry submissions and Land Transaction Tax/Stamp Duty computations as required.
Open and maintain matter files in the case management system, ensure all documents are uploaded, accurately indexed and version controlled, and keep files audit‑ready throughout the matter lifecycle.
Undertake client identification and AML checks, maintain risk assessments and ensure compliance with firm policies, regulatory obligations and file opening/closing procedures.
Draft correspondence, prepare completion checklists, assist with completion arrangements (including electronic completion where applicable) and prepare post‑completion documents such as vesting transfers and requisition responses.
Support fee earners with fee estimates, billing support, time recording and matter budgeting; escalate issues or complex matters to supervising solicitors promptly.
Contribute to team knowledge sharing and process improvement initiatives, creating and maintaining templates, precedents and checklists to improve consistency and efficiency.

Key skills and experience required:

Previous paralegal or legal assistant experience in commercial property, residential development or construction projects, typically 1+ years, with demonstrable experience supporting transactional matters.
Good working knowledge of property law fundamentals, Land Registry practice, planning conditions, easements and common development documentation.
Strong drafting and document preparation skills with meticulous attention to detail and the ability to produce client‑facing documents using firm precedents.
Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage a busy caseload, prioritise tasks and meet deadlines while maintaining high standards of accuracy and file compliance.
Proficiency with case management and document management systems, Microsoft Office (advanced Word skills), PDF tools and online Land Registry services; willingness to support digital workflows and process improvements.
Good interpersonal and communication skills, able to liaise professionally with clients, external advisers, lenders and other stakeholders.
inclusive and supportive workplace. Applicants should demonstrate a collaborative attitude and dedication to delivering excellent client service.
