• Supporting a positive team culture and contributing to the ongoing success of the conveyancing department.
• Maintaining high professional standards, accuracy, and attention to detail across all files.

The experience you will bring to the team

You will bring the following experience to the residential property team:

• Proven experience handling a range of residential conveyancing transactions
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with a calm and professional approach
• High attention to detail, good judgement, and confidence taking ownership of decisions
• Ability to build relationships and work collaboratively with colleagues and stakeholders
• Solid IT skills, including Microsoft Office, and confidence using case management systems

This is what you will get in return

• Competitive salary plus benefits
• Flexible working (location flexible) with full time or part time options (30 hours per week minimum preferred)
• Low caseloads that allow you to focus on quality and client service
• 1:1 admin support and a dedicated post-completion team to help keep things running smoothly
