Job description

Residential Property Lawyer

Level: Solicitor / Associate / Senior Associate / Partner
Location: Carmarthen (Hybrid Working Available)
Firm: Leading Regional Law Firm (Confidential)

TSR Legal are pleased to be working with a highly regarded and fast-growing regional law firm that is looking to appoint an experienced Residential Property Lawyer / Conveyancer to play a key role in the continued growth of its residential property offering across the West Wales region.

This is a standout opportunity for a confident and self-driven residential property professional who is looking to take the next step in their career — whether that’s progressing towards Partner level or moving into a more strategic leadership role beyond fee earning.

Based from a welcoming Carmarthen office, with genuine hybrid working on offer, the firm is at an exciting stage of expansion and is keen to bring in someone who can help shape the future of the department.

The Role

This is a senior and influential position within the residential property team. Alongside managing a high-quality caseload, you will take responsibility for developing the practice, mentoring lawyers across the region and raising the firm’s profile locally.

Key responsibilities include:

• Running your own quality residential property caseload, with strong team support

• Leading, mentoring and developing a high-performing residential property team

• Working collaboratively with colleagues to service a broad range of residential clients

• Developing new and existing property relationships, targeting quality work rather than volume

• Building and maintaining strong links with local agents, referrers and professionals

• Becoming actively involved in the regional business community

• Networking and attending local and regional events to raise the firm’s profile

• Advising on a broad range of residential property matters, including:

  • Sales and purchases

  • Leasehold matters

  • Refinancing

  • Development agreements

  • Agricultural and complex/bespoke residential transactions

This role would suit an Associate or Senior Associate aiming for Partnership, or an existing Partner looking to take on a broader leadership and strategic remit.

The Ideal Candidate

My client is very open on background — the personality and leadership qualities are more important than job title alone. They are looking for someone who is collaborative, commercially aware and genuinely passionate about developing others.

You will ideally have:

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills

• Proven experience handling a varied residential property caseload

• A desire to build and lead a successful team

• Demonstrable business development capability

• The ability to cross-refer work and generate new opportunities

• Good IT skills, including case management systems and Microsoft Office

What’s on Offer

This firm is known for investing heavily in its people and creating an environment where lawyers can build long-term, fulfilling careers.

Benefits include:

• Competitive salary and benefits package

• 25 days’ annual leave (plus buy/sell options)

• Hybrid and flexible working arrangements

• Contribution towards gym membership

• Clear career progression and development opportunities

• A supportive, inclusive and forward-thinking culture
