Residential Property Legal Executive / Licensed Conveyancer

A well-established national law firm is looking to appoint an experienced conveyancing professional to join its expanding real estate team. The firm has a long history, multiple UK offices, and a strong reputation for high-quality work across the property sector. This is an excellent opportunity to join a busy, supportive team working on a wide range of development-focused matters.

Working closely with senior lawyers, you will manage your own caseload while supporting larger transactions. The work is varied and will include:

• Producing reports on title and reviewing due diligence
• Managing pre- and post-completion steps, including Land Registry applications and requisitions
• Liaising directly with clients and external stakeholders
• Ensuring compliance with internal procedures and regulatory requirements

This role offers exposure to substantial development projects and the chance to work with a diverse client base, including housing providers, developers, and institutional investors.

We are looking for someone who can work independently, stay organised under pressure, and deliver work to a high standard. You will ideally bring:

• Qualification as a Conveyancer, Licensed Conveyancer or CILEx Lawyer with conveyancing practice rights
• Strong experience in property transactions and the conveyancing process
• Excellent drafting skills and attention to detail
• Strong administrative and organisational abilities
• Confident communication skills and a client-focused approach
• Ability to manage competing deadlines with minimal supervision
• Good working knowledge of MS Office
• Experience in a similar real estate or development-focused role
• Familiarity with document management systems

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to develop their career within a respected real estate team, with the support of experienced colleagues and exposure to high-quality work.
