Greenwich or Blackheath (SE10 or SE3) with hybrid working
Your experience working in the Residential Conveyancing department in a law firm is highly sought after by our client. They are an excellent law firm, who are looking to add to their headcount, with the hire of a Residential Conveyancing Legal Secretary. The role comes with hybrid working and they are happy for the successful candidate to be based at either their Greenwich or Blackheath offices.
As a vital part of the team, you'll provide top-notch legal secretarial support to their conveyancing lawyers. With a minimum of 3 years' recent experience in residential conveyancing, along with excellent typing skills, you'll thrive in this role.
Your day-to-day responsibilities will include typing letters, correspondence, and documents related to conveyancing work, preparing Contracts of Sale of properties, managing TR1/AP1 forms, utilising the Land Registry's Online service, and handling Stamp Duty Land Transaction Returns. You'll also be involved in opening new matters, liaising with clients both over the phone and in person, and supporting with general administrative tasks.
As a firm, they value professionalism, efficiency, and teamwork. You'll work closely with the legal team, communicating effectively with partners, fellow secretaries, and other admin support team members. Adaptability is key, as you'll also provide secretarial cover to other teams when needed.
You'll be comfortable working on Microsoft Windows 8, Outlook, Winscribe digital dictation, Tikit case management system, Oyez legal forms, and other systems introduced by the partners.
In return, they offer a supportive environment where your skills and contributions are valued. You'll have the flexibility to work three days in the office and two days from home, allowing for a healthy work-life balance. Plus, you'll be part of a fast-paced and busy department where no two days are the same.
