Specialist Boutique Property Firm
Location: London
Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience
Working pattern: Office-based
Experience required: Conveyancing experience essential
A specialist boutique property firm is looking to appoint a motivated and detail-oriented Conveyancing Paralegal to join its growing property team.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with hands-on residential and/or commercial conveyancing experience who is looking to develop their career within a focused property law environment. The successful candidate will work closely with experienced fee earners and gain exposure to a broad range of property matters, including sales, purchases, new leases, remortgages, transfer of equity, leasehold matters and post-completion work.
The firm would suit someone who is ambitious, organised and keen to build a long-term career in property law. This is a particularly good fit for a candidate who wants to move away from a purely administrative role and continue developing technical conveyancing experience within a specialist team.
The role will involve:
* Supporting fee earners on residential and commercial conveyancing matters from initial instruction through to post-completion
* Assisting with freehold and leasehold sales and purchases
* Drafting and reviewing legal documents relating to property transactions
* Preparing and issuing contract packs
* Raising and responding to enquiries
* Reviewing title documents, leases, searches and mortgage-related paperwork
* Liaising with clients, solicitors, estate agents, lenders and other third parties
* Preparing reports on title under supervision
* Submitting OS1, OS2, K16 and Land Registry applications
* Assisting with Certificates of Title, AP1s and post-completion formalities
* Updating case management systems and ensuring files are kept accurate and compliant
* Supporting with AML checks, client onboarding and general conveyancing administration
* Managing deadlines and helping ensure transactions progress smoothly and efficiently
The successful candidate will have:
* Previous conveyancing experience gained within a law firm
* Exposure to residential property matters, ideally including both freehold and leasehold transactions
* Experience assisting with sales, purchases, remortgages and/or transfer of equity matters
* Good understanding of the conveyancing process from instruction to completion
* Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage deadlines effectively
* Confident communication skills when dealing with clients and third parties
* A professional, organised and proactive approach
* Strong IT skills, including Microsoft Office and case management systems
* A genuine interest in building a long-term career within property law
Why this opportunity stands out:
* Join a specialist boutique property firm with a clear focus on property law
* Gain exposure to more technical property matters beyond standard conveyancing
* Work closely with experienced solicitors and senior fee earners
* Develop your confidence across the full conveyancing process
* Opportunity to take on responsibility and build strong client-facing experience
* Ideal platform for someone looking to progress within a reputable property-focused practice
This role would be well suited to a Conveyancing Paralegal, who has already gained practical conveyancing experience and is now looking for a stronger platform to continue developing their legal career
