Residential Conveyancer

Job Title: Residential Conveyancer

Location: Salisbury, Andover, Amesbury or Fordingbridge offices (Hybrid, remote & onsite working available)

Salary: Up to £45,000

Recruiting for an enthusiastic and motivated lawyer to join a fast-growing CQS-accredited residential property team. So, if you are a confident, friendly and approachable conveyancer with excellent communication skills, I want to hear from you.

The successful candidate

• at least 3 years' solid experience of residential conveyancing either as a FILEX or Licensed Conveyancer, will consider experienced candidates without legal qualifications
• great people skills and will be an enthusiastic team player
• good organisational, time management and IT skills
• the ability to multi-task under pressure
• a keen eye for detail
• the confidence and the ability to react to change whilst working within a pressurised environment
• excellent standards of client care and great communication skills
• a history of strong billing
• a desire and the ability to help in the growth of the property department

The job would not be suitable for a partner-level candidate or solicitor.

Furthermore, there is no prospect of a management role for the successful candidate in the residential conveyancing team for the foreseeable future.

An enthusiasm to train and successful experience of training paralegals would be a bonus - though not essential.

Location

Remote working is available, as is hybrid working or being based at any one of our 4 branch offices.

Remote experience required

Please note that while this particular vacancy is entirely suitable for a remote lawyer, it will only be considered for to applications from remote candidates who have solid experience working remotely without any direct supervision.

The team

You will be part of our 30-strong property team.

You will have the support of both our specialist onboarding and post-completion teams, and in addition there is a possibility of having a dedicated paralegal for you. The paralegal may be an inexperienced law graduate - so an enthusiasm to assist with their training is important. However, there is already a structured and highly successful fast-track training programme for our conveyancing paralegals.

Our rapid recruitment process

The recruitment process is 2 stage. It involves an initial and informal Zoom chat, which we can set up at very short notice - followed up with a more formal interview with both the head of the relevant team and the Practice Director.
