Job description

Overview

Conveyancing Career Paralegal | Wiltshire | Up to £30k | Supportive Team. I m looking to speak with a paralegal with at least a year s experience in residential conveyancing, interested in joining an established firm with a loyal client base, calm and collaborative working culture, and a solid reputation across Wiltshire.

Team and environment

The team is made up of four property fee earners and a small group of paralegals and secretarial staff, all based in a lovely, centrally located office. The firm as a whole is around 30 people across Wiltshire; compact, well run, well respected, and genuinely friendly. They ve got a great track record for internal progression - paralegals have gone on to take ownership of their own matters or start training contracts.

You ll be part of a team where tenure is high, people stick around, not just because the work is interesting and the clients are loyal, but because the environment is genuinely supportive. There s a good balance of structure and flexibility, and while the hours are standard Monday to Friday, 9 5, there s a sensible approach to work/life balance.
