Job description

Ready to take the next step in your post-completion career?

At PLS Solicitors, our Post Completion Assistants play a vital role in keeping transactions moving after completion. This is a step-up opportunity for an experienced post-completion professional who’s confident managing Land Registry applications and requisitions and is ready to take on more responsibility, complexity and ownership.

You’ll be joining a supportive, high-performing team where post-completion is recognised as a specialist, technical function – not an afterthought. With increasing work volumes, we’re looking for someone who can hit the ground running and become a trusted point of contact within the team.

• Location: Liverpool, L2 2PP (office-based for first 3 months, then hybrid: 3 days office, 2 days WFH)
• Hours: Full-time, permanent, Monday-Friday, 09:00-17:00
• Start date: ASAP (open to longer notice periods)
• Salary: up to £27k p/a DOE

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Post Completion Assistant, you’ll manage post-completion matters from start to finish, ensuring accuracy, compliance and timeliness across a high-volume caseload. Your responsibilities will include:

• Preparing and submitting all types of Land Registry applications
• Dealing confidently with Land Registry requisitions and technical queries
• Amending documentation and ensuring accurate scanning and filing
• Registering charges with Companies House within strict statutory timeframes
• Liaising with clients, lenders, HM Land Registry, solicitors and third parties
• Acting as a point of contact for post-completion queries and escalations
• Supporting and mentoring junior and mid-level post-completion team members
• Assisting with workload allocation, prioritisation and inbox management
• Escalating complex matters where appropriate to ensure risks are managed

What We’re Looking For

This role requires established post-completion experience and the confidence to deal with technical work independently.

We’d love to hear from you if you have:

• Significant experience in a post-completion role (minimum 6 months’ established experience post-training/probation)
• Strong working knowledge of Land Registry processes and applications
• Experience handling requisitions and understanding what to expect, even if you haven’t seen every scenario
• Experience with a broad range of case types is preferred – experience with New Build transactions is essential.
• Excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage a busy, time-sensitive caseload
• Confidence using case management systems and the Land Registry Portal
• A professional, confident approach to phone-based queries and escalations
• The ability to support and mentor less experienced team members
• Experience with systems such as InfoTrack is desirable but not essential

Why Join PLS?

• Clear progression: This role is a key development step for those aiming to move into senior or legal roles in the future
• Study support: Once you’ve been with us for a year, we’ll support you with professional qualifications to help you continue developing your legal knowledge and career
• Supportive environment: You’ll be trusted to get on with your work, while still being fully supported by an experienced management team
• Specialist focus: Post-completion is treated as a critical, technical function – your expertise genuinely matters
• Stability & investment: We’re committed to finding the right person and will wait for the right fit

What You’ll Get in Return

• 22 days holiday (rising by one day for each year of service, up to 25) + Bank Holidays, with buy/carry over options
• Employee benefits: death in service, healthcare plan, EAP, counselling, and salary sacrifice schemes (tech, nursery, gym, cycle, car)
• Extras: free conveyancing, mortgage advice, staff discounts

If you’re looking for a role where your post-completion knowledge is recognised, valued and developed – and where you can genuinely take the next step in your career – we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now and be part of a team that understands the importance of getting post-completion right.
