£90,000.00 - £110,000.00Year
Head of Conveyancing
Location: Hybrid / Southwest-based
Salary: £90K-£110K Per Annum
Type: Full-time, Permanent
A prominent and highly regarded regional law firm is seeking a new Head of Conveyancing to lead one of its most successful departments.
This is a rare opportunity to take over a high-performing, well-supported conveyancing team and guide it through the next phase of strategic growth. With a premium, service-led model - low caseloads, high client care - the firm has deliberately stayed away from volume-driven work and built a reputation for quality, not quantity.
The team is already a major contributor to the firm's revenue, looking to grow further, without compromising the boutique approach. Plans are in motion to expand into new geographic markets (including Bath), and this role will be central to that growth strategy.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead, mentor, and develop a team of experienced lawyers and fee earners
Drive the strategic growth of the department in line with firm-wide ambitions
Identify new market opportunities and support expansion into new locations
Uphold and develop the team's high standards of client service and delivery
Work collaboratively with the senior leadership team to shape the future of the firm
Your experience:
A senior Residential Conveyancer or Commercial Property Lawyer with a strong track record
Either an established Head of Department, or a senior practitioner ready to step into leadership
Commercially minded, ambitious, and confident in setting and delivering strategic goals
Able to inspire and engage a high-performing team while staying hands-on when needed
Strong client relationship skills and a deep understanding of the property legal landscape
Why This Firm?
Award-winning, progressive, and values-driven - with a clear, high-quality offering
No high-volume caseloads - instead, a strong focus on service, support, and people
Genuinely collaborative culture with an engaged and trusting leadership team
Clear growth plans, significant investment in the department, and a real opportunity to make your mark
This is a career-defining move for the right candidate - someone who's ready to lead a successful team and shape what comes next.
