Senior Conveyancing Assistant

Do you have significant, proven experience of the conveyancing process?

Are you a quick thinking and organising property and conveyancing professional?

Are you looking to work for an expanding and long established, highly reputable legal firm in Gloucestershire?

The Cirencester branch of this professional firm is seeking an experienced Senior Conveyancing Assistant to join its busy Residential Property team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced legal property professional who enjoys being actively involved in the progression of property transactions rather than undertaking purely secretarial duties.

Whilst the role includes preparing legal documentation and correspondence, the focus is on managing processes, supporting fee earners, liaising with clients and third parties, and ensuring residential property matters progress efficiently from instruction through to completion.

The firm combines traditional professional values with a modern approach to client service, technology and team collaboration, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who is organised, proactive and confident working in a busy legal environment.

Duties will include:

• Supporting fee earners and partners on a range of residential property transactions
• Managing case progression from instruction through to completion
• Liaising with clients, estate agents, lenders and other solicitors
• Preparing legal documentation and correspondence
• Monitoring key dates and ensuring matters progress efficiently
• Maintaining accurate records on the firm''s case management system
• Managing file opening and compliance procedures
• Handling post-completion administration
• Providing a high standard of client care throughout the transaction process

We are looking for:

• Previous experience within residential conveyancing is essential
• A good understanding of the conveyancing process
• Excellent organisational and time-management skills
• Very good communication and client relationship skills
• A proactive, solutions-focused approach
• Exceptional attention to detail
• The ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously
• Excellent IT skills, including experience with Microsoft Office and legal case management systems

Importantly, we are seeking an efficient legal support professional who embraces technology and efficient ways of working. Although there is some audio typing and dictation work, this is not a role for someone looking to focus solely on that.

If this sounds like you, please apply. All applications will be responded to.
