You will be required to deal with all aspects of your cases, including source of wealth checks and title checking. Unlike most larger conveyancers, almost half of the work they do is direct from clients, rather than via a referring estate agent. Conveyancers are rewarded for their productivity with a monthly performance related bonus. Whilst these are roles for experienced conveyancers, you will also be working with supportive colleagues in a great team environment - giving you support when you need it and autonomy when you don't. ABOUT YOU The company welcomes applications from qualified solicitors, chartered legal executives and licensed conveyancers (although this status is not essential). You will have a minimum of 3 years' experience managing a caseload ideally with experience of handling leasehold matters and complex matters such as shared ownership and newbuild. As you will be liaising with internal and external stakeholders you must have excellent interpersonal skills, combined with a flair for relationship building.
