  • Residential Conveyancer role with genuine autonomy and long-term career trajectory
  • Full residential caseload with no billing-led culture, quality and client care come first
  • Opportunity to progress to partner-level within 2 years

 

This is a rare opportunity for an experienced Residential Conveyancer to join a small, ambitious and entrepreneurial firm operating out of its Macclesfield office.

You’ll step into a role where you can take full ownership of files from instruction through to completion, supported by a dedicated secretary and assistant. The firm is looking for someone reliable, proactive and client-focused, someone who wants to do conveyancing properly and be part of shaping the future of the Macclesfield office.

There is a clear long-term vision here. The right person won’t just “do the job”, they’ll become the go-to conveyancer in the office and, over time, play a key role in growing and leading the conveyancing function locally.

Who we’re looking for

  • Qualified Solicitor, Licensed Conveyancer or Legal Executive
  • Able to manage a full residential conveyancing file independently from instruction to completion
  • Ideally 4+ years’ experience in residential property work
  • Strong background in freehold and leasehold sales and purchases, remortgages and transfers of equity
  • Comfortable supervising and working alongside a secretary and assistant
  • Confident building relationships with local agents and maintaining a strong local reputation

What you’ll be doing

  • Managing a full residential conveyancing caseload end-to-end
  • Handling sales, purchases, leasehold matters, remortgages, transfers of equity and occasional new build/unregistered titles
  • Acting as the main point of contact for clients, agents and third parties
  • Supervising and collaborating with a secretary and assistant based in Stockport
  • Working closely with Directors and the wider conveyancing team across offices
  • Playing an active role in office culture, reliability and client confidence

There is no billing-driven pressure here, success is measured by file progression, client experience and dependability.

Salary & Benefits

  • Salary dependent on experience and qualification
  • Up to £50,000–£60,000 for a standout candidate
  • Opportunity to progress to partner within 2 years
  • Supportive, entrepreneurial leadership with real decision-making access
  • Dog-friendly office environment
  • Free on-site parking
  • Direct access to Directors and genuine influence over how the department operates
  • Friendly, tight-knit culture focused on doing things properly rather than chasing numbers
