Boutique City Law Firm – Residential Property Specialists

We are working with a specialist boutique law firm based in the City of London, known for its strong focus on high-quality residential conveyancing and a genuinely client-centric approach. Due to continued growth, the firm is looking to appoint an experienced Residential Conveyancer to join its expanding property team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a residential property solicitor who enjoys handling quality work, and who is looking to develop their career within a supportive, flexible and progressive environment.

The Firm

\n\t
• A well-established boutique practice with a clear focus on residential conveyancing
\n\t
• Acts for a mix of private individuals, high-net-worth clients, investors and repeat clients
\n\t
• The firm now has six directors, offering clear visibility of progression and long-term career development
\n\t
• A collaborative culture where senior lawyers are hands-on, accessible and supportive
\n\t
• Flexible working arrangements, tailored to the individual’s technical ability, experience and autonomy
\n

The Role

You will manage a varied and interesting residential conveyancing caseload, handling matters from instruction through to post-completion.

The work will include:

\n\t
• Freehold and leasehold sales and purchases
\n\t
• Re-mortgages and transfers of equity
\n\t
• New build transactions
\n\t
• Probate-related sales and purchases
\n\t
• Leasehold matters and general residential property advice

The firm is open to shaping the role around the right individual, whether that be a solicitor or experienced conveyancer looking for greater autonomy and recognition.

The Ideal Candidate

\n\t
• Qualified solicitor or experienced conveyancer with residential conveyancing experience. (NQ applications welcome.)
\n\t
• Comfortable running files independently and managing client relationships
\n\t
• Strong technical knowledge with a focus on quality and attention to detail
\n\t
• Commercially aware, professional and client-focused
\n\t
• Looking to specialise in residential property, rather than a mixed commercial/residential caseload
\n

Why Apply?

\n\t
• Genuine opportunity to focus on residential conveyancing within a specialist firm
\n\t
• Flexible working style based on trust and capability, not micromanagement
\n\t
• Clear progression opportunities, including long-term senior and leadership prospects
\n\t
• Supportive boutique environment with high-calibre work and clients
\n\t
• A firm that values experience, judgment and contribution
