  • Supporting on new build property transactions
  • Assisting with Help to Buy matters
  • Preparing legal documentation and completion statements
  • Maintaining case management systems and ensuring files are progressed efficiently
  • Providing administrative and legal support throughout the conveyancing process
To be considered for this opportunity, you must have:
  • A minimum of 12 months' residential conveyancing experience gained as a Legal Assistant or Paralegal
  • Experience supporting residential property transactions from instruction through to completion
  • Knowledge of conveyancing procedures, documentation and post-completion processes
  • Excellent organisational skills and attention to detail
  • Strong communication and client care skills
  • The ability to manage competing priorities within a busy team environment
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a leading Sheffield law firm with an outstanding reputation in the local market. The Residential Property team is well-established, supportive and offers excellent long-term career prospects for ambitious conveyancing professionals looking to further develop their expertise.
  • Salary up to £27,000 depending on experience
