Job description

Residential Property Solicitor (7+ years PQE)

Full Time | Head of Department | Hybrid Working (West Wickham)

The Opportunity

This firm is on the lookout for exceptional people to join its ranks. It's a business that's growing steadily in both size and reputation, and it wants enthusiastic, capable individuals on board who are thoughtful, determined and intuitive, and who bring their own personality and a genuinely positive outlook to the table. People are actively seeking this firm out, moving across from other practices, or coming back after time away because they simply loved working there.

This particular opportunity is a great one: the chance to head up the Residential Conveyancing Team from the West Wickham office and take an already well established offering to the next level.

This is a firm that's brave and ambitious, vibrant and diverse, with a culture that feels genuinely supportive. There's a real sense of togetherness across every level, people work hard but never lose sight of having fun along the way, and everyone is encouraged to bring their ideas to the table. Hybrid working is standard for any role that can be done remotely, and are open to flexible hours and office base. There's also a "You Day" scheme, which lets people compress their contractual hours into 9 days and take the 10th off for themselves.

The Role

You will:

• Lead the Residential Conveyancing Team from the West Wickham office
• Manage your own full, high volume caseload with complete independence
• Support, guide and develop the wider team around you
• Build on an already strong client and referral network across West Wickham, Bromley and the surrounding areas
• Play an active role in business development, growing the client base and building the firm's profile
• Deliver client service that builds and protects a strong professional reputation
• Help drive the firm's continued growth and standing in the region

About You

You will be:

• A qualified Solicitor with 7+ years' PQE in Residential Property
• Currently practising as a Residential Property Solicitor (Senior Associates and Partners who are keen to show that they can build upon the already established Residential Conveyancing offering in West Wickham will be considered).
• Confident leading a team and comfortable managing high volume caseloads
• Someone with an established profile and client following in West Wickham, Bromley or the wider region
• Proven when it comes to business development and building lasting client relationships
• A strong communicator with a reputation for excellent client care
• Driven by a can do attitude and always willing to go the extra mile

What's on Offer

• Hybrid working, with real flexibility around hours and office base
• The "You Day" scheme, giving you an extra day off every fortnight
• Bonuses
• Generous annual leave
• Private Medical Insurance with Bupa
• Life assurance
• A health cash plan, including an Employee Assistance Programme
• Perks and discounts from major retailers
• A genuinely supportive, close knit culture that invests in your growth
• The chance to shape and lead a team, not just join one

This firm's standards are high, and it's exactly that which has helped it build a sustainable, profitable and enjoyable place to work. If you've got a can do attitude, go the extra mile for colleagues and clients alike, and can show real commitment, loyalty and excellence in what you do, this could be the role for you.
