Job description

Commercial and Residential Property Lawyer Full Time Salisbury, Andover, Amesbury or Fordingbridge offices REMOTE WORKING AVAILABLE

We are looking for an enthusiastic and experienced property lawyer to join our growing property team.

The ideal candidate will be able to handle a range of commercial and, if possible, residential property. However, we are also happy to consider lawyers who only handle commercial property work.

If you are a confident, well-presented, friendly, and approachable solicitor or an experienced legal executive with excellent communication skills, we want to hear from you.

The successful candidate

• A professional qualification either as a solicitor, FILEX, or Licensed Conveyancer
• At least 4 years of solid experience in commercial property
• Great people skills and enthusiasm for teamwork
• Good organisational, time management, and IT skills with the ability to multi-task under pressure
• A keen eye for detail
• Confidence and adaptability in a pressurised environment
• Excellent client care and communication skills
• A strong billing history
• A desire to contribute to the growth of the property department

Additional, but not essential, attributes include the ability to bring referral sources and an interest in marketing.

If working primarily from home, the candidate should be experienced and able to work independently without supervision.

The job

Despite a subdued conveyancing market, our property work continues to grow, with anticipated significant increases in conveyancing cases over the next 6-12 months. This role is an addition to our team.

The candidate will need to be flexible within the team and may cover:

• Acting for property investors (essential)
• Commercial property work
• Some straightforward residential property work

Location

Remote working is available, as well as hybrid working or being based at any of our four branch offices: Salisbury, Andover, Amesbury, and Fordingbridge.

The team

You will be part of a 27-strong property team, divided into four groups:

• Residential
• Commercial
• Property investor
• Leasehold (specialising in lease extensions and enfranchisement)

Our property investor team

This team focuses on working with property investors and developers, a rapidly growing niche. The workload is expected to increase significantly over the next five years, involving work for investors and developers across England and Wales, handling both residential and commercial properties.

Salary
