• Contract review, searches and enquiries

You will provide clear, commercially focused advice to clients, manage transactions efficiently and proactively resolve issues throughout the conveyancing process.

The role also requires a strong understanding of AML requirements, SRA regulations and general compliance obligations relevant to property practice.

About You

The successful candidate will be:

• A solicitor admitted with the SRA in England and Wales

• Ideally 3–5 years' PQE

• Experienced in residential conveyancing

• Technically confident across the property transaction process

• Interested in developing or expanding their commercial property experience
