Residential Conveyancing Solicitor – Leading Firm in Essex
Salary: Up to £60,000 (DOE) + Excellent Benefits | Hybrid Working | Career Progression

I’m working closely with a highly regarded and forward-thinking law firm in Essex that’s looking to expand its Residential Property team with an experienced Residential Conveyancing Solicitor. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a firm recognised for both its technical excellence and client-first approach, offering high-quality work, a supportive environment, and excellent career development.

About the Role:

You'll be joining a busy and well-established Conveyancing team that acts for a diverse range of clients – both locally and nationally, including UK-based and international buyers. The team holds Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) accreditation, reflecting its consistent delivery of high standards and robust processes.

The caseload includes:

• Freehold and leasehold sales and purchases
• New build transactions
• High-value property work
• Remortgages, auctions, shared ownership, and transfers of equity
• Personal guarantees and complex title matters

You’ll have autonomy in running your own files (with appropriate support), and will be encouraged to actively contribute to the department’s continued success through client care, networking, and business development.

What We’re Looking For:

• Ideally 3+ years’ experience in residential conveyancing (although strong candidates with less experience will be considered)
• Strong technical knowledge and confidence in managing a varied caseload independently
• Excellent client communication and relationship-building skills
• A proactive, solution-oriented mindset and a genuine interest in supporting the growth of the team
• Willingness to engage in networking and BD activities

What’s On Offer:

• Salary up to £60,000 depending on experience
• Hybrid working with full IT setup at home
• Quarterly bonus scheme based on team performance
• 25 days’ annual leave + bank holidays (increasing with service)
• Birthday leave + free parking + iPhone for personal/business use
• Private health insurance, pension contributions, and death in service cover
• Support with qualifications, mentoring programmes, and clear progression routes
• Discounted legal and financial services, eye care contributions, regular social events, and more

If you’re a motivated Residential Conveyancer looking for a role where you’ll be valued, supported, and given room to grow – this is an opportunity not to miss.
