Paralegal Residential Property

Profile

A fast-paced paralegal role in our busy Residential Property team

This role offers experience in a variety of different areas of conveyancing legal practice such that you will be involved at most stages of a typical residential transaction, from on-boarding clients to assisting with completion mechanics and registrations. Some of the work will be administrative in nature but there will also be considerable opportunity to learn what it takes to be a lawyer.

The work is varied and stimulating, but it is also busy and challenging.  You will need to be extremely organised and comfortable having direct contact with clients and purchasers’ legal representatives. You will be expected to manage your own caseload under supervision. Not all transactions run entirely smoothly and a good degree of resilience and composure is required to provide a high-quality and professional service at all times. But you won’t be doing this alone: you’ll be part of a friendly team and valued for your individual contribution with support to develop your skills and experience.

It is part of our ethos that everyone is encouraged to develop and pursue their legal career, with the support and guidance from everyone in the team. It is the head of the team’s mission to ensure everyone is moving forward! We’ll encourage conversations with you around opportunities we have at FSP for training to qualify as a solicitor – including through our Graduate Solicitor Apprenticeship route.

Ideally you will already have at least 6 months of conveyancing / property experience as a paralegal or trainee legal executive but graduates with other paralegal experience and a genuine interest in conveyancing as a career will also be considered.
