Location: Farnborough
Salary: £60,000 – £70,000
About the role
Our client is a well-established small firm in Farnborough looking for a qualified residential conveyancer to join their team as a fee earner. This is a hands-on role running your own caseload from instruction through to completion – the kind of varied, quality-led work that gets squeezed out at the larger volume firms.
You'll work directly with clients, estate agents, and other professionals, supported by a close-knit team that values doing the job properly over chasing numbers.
What you'll be doing
- Managing a residential conveyancing caseload end-to-end – freehold, leasehold, new build, and shared ownership
- Liaising with clients, agents, lenders, and other parties throughout each transaction
- Drafting and reviewing contracts, transfer deeds, and supporting documentation
- Conducting property searches and reviewing title
- Handling SDLT, AML and source-of-funds checks, and Land Registry submissions
- Keeping clients clearly informed at every stage, and resolving issues as they arise
- Maintaining accurate case records on our case management system
What we're looking for
Essential
- Qualified Solicitor (SRA-regulated) or Chartered Legal Executive (CILEx / Fellow CILEx)
- Minimum 3 years' post-qualification experience in residential conveyancing
- Confident running a caseload independently
- Strong drafting, communication, and client-care skills
- Solid IT skills and experience with conveyancing case management software
- Excellent organisation and the ability to manage competing priorities
Desirable
- Experience across leasehold, new build, shared ownership, and Help to Buy
- A local network across Surrey, Hampshire, or Berkshire
- Familiarity with systems such as LEAP, Proclaim, Osprey, or Quill
Please note: this role is for a qualified fee earner. We're not considering paralegal-level applicants on this occasion.
What's on offer
- Competitive salary of £50,000 – £70,000 depending on experience
- A manageable caseload – quality over volume
- Supportive, collegiate team in a friendly office environment
- Career progression in a firm that invests in its people
