About the role
A great opportunity for an experienced Conveyancing Fee Earner looking for a firm that genuinely values its people.
Clayton Legal is delighted to be working with an established, growing and highly regarded law firm based in the Teesside area, that is looking to strengthen its residential property team with the appointment of an experienced Conveyancing Fee Earner.
This is a firm that takes its work seriously, but doesn't believe that means taking itself too seriously.
The team works incredibly hard, but there's a real emphasis on creating an enjoyable, supportive environment where people are recognised and appreciated for the contribution they make.
The Role
As a Conveyancing Fee Earner, you will take responsibility for your own caseload of residential property matters, providing a high-quality service to clients from instruction through to completion.
Your caseload will include:
- Freehold and leasehold sales and purchases
- Managing files from initial instruction through to completion
- Reviewing title documentation and searches
- Raising and responding to enquiries
- Preparing contracts and transfer documentation
- Liaising with clients, estate agents, lenders and other solicitors
- Managing exchange and completion
- Ensuring matters progress efficiently and within required timescales
- Maintaining excellent levels of client care throughout
About You
We're looking for someone with previous experience managing their own residential conveyancing caseload.
You may be a Conveyancing Fee Earner, Licensed Conveyancer, CILEX professional or Solicitor, but most importantly, you'll have the technical knowledge and experience to manage your own files confidently.
You'll also be:
- Client-focused and commercially aware
- Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
- Comfortable managing deadlines and competing priorities
- A strong communicator
- Proactive in progressing matters
- A positive team player who enjoys working collaboratively
Why Join?
It's not just the role that's attractive here, it's the environment.
The firm has built a genuinely friendly team where hard work is recognised and people are encouraged to enjoy their working environment.
Alongside 22 days' holiday plus Bank Holidays, employees can also benefit from:
- Competitive salary dependent on experience, from £35k-£50k
- Bonus scheme
- Extended leave over Christmas, at the Directors' discretion
- An early Christmas break, provided by the firm with no requirement to use annual leave
- Regular team treats and celebrations
- Cake, buffets and takeaways when there's something to celebrate
- The occasional Friday afternoon early finish
- A supportive, close-knit team environment where people look out for one another
Sometimes it's the small things that make the biggest difference and and this is a firm that understands that.
