An established and forward-thinking legal practice is expanding its residential conveyancing team and are recruiting for a Post Completion Conveyancing Assistant to assist the team.

Working within the Post Completion Team, you will be dealing with all post-completion aspects of residential conveyancing transactions, ensuring applications are processed accurately and within required timescales. Key responsibilities include:

  • Preparing and submitting applications to HM Land Registry.
  • Responding to Land Registry requisitions promptly and accurately.
  • Managing SDLT submissions and ensuring compliance with HMRC requirements.
  • Liaising with fee earners, clients, lenders and third parties regarding post-completion matters.
  • Monitoring registration progress and maintaining accurate records

The ideal candidate will bring prior experience within a conveyancing or post completion environment, along with a good understanding of Land Registry applications and requisition handling. In addition, you should have knowledge of SDLT requirements.

In return, you'll join a firm that genuinely invests in its people. With clear pathways for progression and a track record of developing assistants into more senior roles, this is an excellent opportunity to build a long-term career. You'll work with efficient, modern systems in a friendly environment, alongside a competitive salary that reflects your experience.
