About the Role

Lead Conveyancer | Progression Opportunities | Strong Salary + Benefits

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an experienced Residential Conveyancing Solicitor / Associate / Senior Associate to join a modern and forward-thinking law firm as they launch an exciting new office in Bristol.

Our client is an ambitious and progressive firm with strong foundations and a modern approach to legal services. As part of their continued growth, they are seeking a Senior Fee Earner to play a key role in establishing and developing their presence in the Bristol market.

This is a unique opportunity for a motivated individual who is not only confident managing a full residential conveyancing caseload, but is also excited by the prospect of helping build and lead a new office, contributing to the firm’s growth and reputation in the region.

The Role

  • Managing a varied residential conveyancing caseload from instruction to completion, including freehold, leasehold, new build and remortgage transactions
  • Acting as a senior figure within the Bristol office, helping shape the growth and direction of the team
  • Driving business development initiatives to raise the firm’s profile and generate new work in the local market
  • Developing strong relationships with agents, brokers and local introducers
  • Providing leadership and mentorship as the office and team expand
  • Working closely with the wider firm to ensure high standards of service and continued growth

The Ideal Candidate

  • Qualified Solicitor, Legal Executive or Licensed Conveyancer with solid experience in residential conveyancing
  • Able to manage a busy and varied caseload independently
  • commercially minded and proactive individual who enjoys networking and business development
  • Someone who thrives in a modern, entrepreneurial environment
  • Ambition to take on leadership and management responsibilities

The Opportunity

This role offers far more than a traditional conveyancing position. You will be joining a modern and progressive firm at an exciting stage of growth, with the opportunity to play a pivotal role in establishing and leading their Bristol presence.

For the right individual, there is clear progression into senior leadership, with the opportunity to influence the long-term development of the office and build a team around you.

In return, the firm offers:

  • A genuine career progression pathway
  • The chance to lead and grow a new office location
  • A supportive and forward-thinking firm culture
  • Competitive salary and benefits package

If you are an ambitious residential conveyancing lawyer looking for the next step in your career, and the opportunity to combine hands-on fee earning with leadership and growth, we would be delighted to hear from you.
