The Role

We have a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Conveyancing Assistant to join our thriving, highly respected Nottingham practice. This is a permanent, full-time position based in our Bulwell office. The role is ideally suited to a dedicated assistant looking to provide vital support to a busy, successful and growing residential property team.

Please note: This is a permanent assistant role. We are looking for a long-term team member who thrives in a dedicated support role; therefore, this position does not provide a pathway to a Training Contract or a future Solicitor position.

Key Responsibilities

In this role, you will work closely with our fee earners to ensure transactions progress smoothly from instruction to completion. Your daily responsibilities will include:

• Assisting with client onboarding, compliance, and initial file setup.
• Compiling and preparing draft contract packs.
• Ordering property searches and reviewing results.
• Liaising professionally with other parties’ solicitors, mortgage brokers, and estate agents.
• Providing proactive, reassuring updates to clients on the progress of their matters.
• Chasing outstanding enquiries and ensuring deadlines are met.
• Dealing with SDLT submissions, Land Registry applications, and all other post-completion matters.

About You

You are a proactive team player with excellent organisational skills, a strong eye for detail, and a positive ‘can-do’ attitude. As this is an assistant role requiring a running start, you will need to demonstrate practical experience in a residential conveyancing environment.

Ideally, you possess:

• Experience: A minimum of 2 years of practical residential conveyancing experience within a legal environment.
• Skills: Proficient in the use of a legal case management system and standard Microsoft Office software.
• Interpersonal Skills: The confidence and professional polish to build excellent working relationships with clients and third parties alike.

What is On Offer?

• A competitive salary (dependent on experience).
• A genuine work-life balance within a stable, long-established firm.
• A welcoming, supportive, and highly collaborative team environment.

Apply Now!

If you’re ready to bring your conveyancing skills to a firm that values a stable and dedicated support team, we’d love to hear from you. Please submit your CV and a short cover letter outlining your relevant experience.
