Newcastle upon Tyne, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom Womble Bond Dickinson Full time

Our Residential Housebuilding team is one of the largest of its kind. Working with many major housebuilders, residential developers and housing clients our work is diverse and always of the highest quality. We support our clients in a range of projects from major urban mixed-use developments to green field new settlements, and our expertise in the sector, coupled with our approach to client service means that we are rated as the premier team in Newcastle by both clients and the legal directories.

This role will see you working with our national housebuilder clients.

What will you be doing?

In this varied role you'll get to work on a broad range of client matters, linked and related to the sale and acquisition of residential property throughout England and Wales. You'll be responsible for managing your own caseload, handling complex files primarily for part exchange sales and purchases and secondary for plot sales.

Dealing with all aspects of the part exchange purchase process, including title and lease reviews, reviewing and reporting on title and pre-contract searches, drafting deeds of covenants, notice of transfer and more. Administrating all the documentation which may be required as part of the transaction, including dealing with the sale of the part exchange properties, along with all aspects of the plot sales process, including replying to enquiries, exchange and completions and post completion formalities.

So what are we looking for?

Whether you are a Legal Executive, Licensed Conveyancer or just have many years of conveyancing experience you'll ideally need to bring some knowledge of the new build sector.

You'll also need excellent communication skills, the ability to work to tight deadlines whilst under pressure, a positive outlook and the desire to offer outstanding client service. Part exchange experience would be ideal, but as long as you have strong conveyancing experience we are able to offer the support and training you need.

To be successful in this role you'll need as a minimum:

At least 5 years' experience of dealing with residential conveyancing.
Experience of dealing with complex conveyancing issues.
Demonstrable experience of working to tight deadlines.
Strong IT skills and experience of case management systems

What makes it great to work here?

We continually work hard to create an open culture that sets us apart from other firms. Our culture gives us much more of a human feel, emphasising that we're more than just suits

As signatories to the Mindful Business Charter, it's important to us that our people are able to maintain healthy and happy lives, both in and out of work. We have a number of resources and initiatives designed to support health and wellbeing and we're very happy to talk flexible working, full-time or part-time working patterns.

Through our DEI initiatives we create an environment in which difference is valued. We have an Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Group, led by our Board Sponsor, which works with our colleague networks (we currently have firm supported networks for race, ethnicity, and cultural heritage, LGBTQ+, disabilities, families, and women's career development and we're in constant dialogue with our people about how we expand our networks to better support everybody).
