Residential Conveyancer

Southend-On-Sea – £40,000 - £60,000

Residential Conveyancer/Fee Earner (2 years + PQE)
Location: Southend-on-Sea
Salary: Negotiable, dependent on experience + Excellent Benefits

Are you a driven Residential Conveyancer looking for your next exciting opportunity? I am partnering with a leading Legal 500 law firm in Southend-on-Sea that’s on the lookout for a talented Fee Earner (2 years + pqe) to join their growing team.

This role is perfect for someone eager to take on a diverse caseload independently, while benefiting from top-tier support from paralegals and secretarial staff, and receiving guidance from experienced colleagues. It’s a fantastic opportunity to step up your career with a prestigious firm that values professional growth and client excellence.

Why This Role Stands Out:
  • Autonomy with Support: You’ll have the freedom to manage your own caseload, including complex leasehold and unregistered properties—but with a strong support system behind you.
  • Legal 500 Recognition: This is your chance to be part of a firm that’s known for its excellence in the legal world, offering you exposure to high-quality work and prestigious clients.
  • Career Growth Opportunities: Whether you’re looking to enhance your expertise or move into more senior positions, this firm is dedicated to helping you achieve your professional goals.
  • Flexible Salary Package: The salary is negotiable based on your experience, ensuring you’re rewarded for your skills, with plenty of room for progression.
Who We’re Looking For:
  • A confident conveyancer with experience handling a range of residential conveyancing transactions, including leasehold and unregistered properties.
  • You’re someone who enjoys managing your own caseload but appreciates a supportive, team-oriented environment.
  • Ambitious and driven, you’re looking to grow within a firm that’s equally committed to your development.
What You’ll Get:
  • A competitive salary (negotiable based on experience).
  • The chance to be part of a forward-thinking, Legal 500 recognised firm that truly values its people.
  • A supportive and collaborative team where you’ll have the freedom to make an impact while developing your career.
If you’re ready to elevate your career with a respected firm that offers the perfect blend of autonomy, support, and growth, I’d love to hear from you!
