Are you a numbers wizard? Do you thrive in the world of debits and credits? Does financial organisation spark joy? If you're nodding your head, keep reading.

Who Are We?

Woodstock Legal Services isn’t your typical law firm. We’re breaking the mould – ditching the jargon, delivering expert advice, and doing things differently in the legal world. Our accounts team plays a vital role in ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes – and we’re looking for an experienced Legal Cashier to join them.

This is your chance to be part of a firm that’s growing fast and cares deeply about its people.

The Role – Legal Cashier

We’re on the lookout for a proactive, detail-focused and experienced Legal Cashier to join our busy accounts team. You’ll play a key role in ensuring the accurate and compliant processing of client money, helping us deliver an efficient service to both clients and consultants.

You’ll need to bring prior legal cashiering experience, a strong understanding of the Solicitors Accounts Rules (SAR), and a calm, methodical approach – particularly when handling high volumes of work, in particular conveyancing completions.

This is a full-time role, with hybrid or remote working available depending on experience.

A Few Things You’ll Be Diving Into

Client & Office Transactions

• Accurately process client and office account payments, receipts, and transfers
• Handle the financial side of completions, including reviewing statements and files
• Manage daily banking and reconciliation tasks
  
  

Compliance & Risk

• Ensure all work complies with the latest Solicitors Accounts Rules
• Help maintain clean, accurate financial records for audit readiness
• Flag any discrepancies or compliance issues and work to resolve them quickly
  
  

Team & Consultant Support

• Respond to queries from legal consultants and internal teams in a timely, professional manner
• Work closely with the accounts team to ensure smooth day-to-day running
• Support internal financial processes and reporting
  
  

Systems & Accuracy

• Use our legal accounting systems to process transactions efficiently (LEAP experience is a bonus)
• Be comfortable spotting and highlighting breaches of the Solicitors Accounts Rules
• Assist with month-end tasks and other finance projects as needed
  
  

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience as a Legal Cashier or in a legal accounts role
• Solid understanding of Solicitors Accounts Rules and legal accounting procedures
• High level of accuracy and attention to detail
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage high volumes calmly and efficiently
• Good working knowledge of Xero accounting software and Excel is a bonus
• Experience with LEAP is a real plus
• Friendly and professional communication skills
• A team player who’s reliable, discreet, and proactive
  
  

Why Choose Us?

Flexibility & Trust: We offer hybrid and remote working where possible – we trust our team to deliver, without micromanagement.

Supportive Culture: You’ll join a team that genuinely supports each other and values the work you do.

Impactful Work: Your role will be central to how our firm runs, and you’ll see the difference you make every day.

Perks & Benefits

• 25 days annual leave + Bank Holidays
• Your birthday off – because you deserve it!
