Napthens LLP is on the lookout for a Legal Assistant to join our award-winning Rural Business Property Team, based in Blackburn, East Lancashire.

This is not just any assistant role — this is a chance to roll up your sleeves and get stuck into the legal lifeblood of the countryside. From buying and selling farms, to refinancing rural estates, and supporting succession planning for generations of farmers, you will be part of a team that is as rooted in the land as the hedgerows of the Ribble Valley.

- You will work alongside some of the region's most respected rural legal experts.

- There's real opportunity for long term career growth and qualifications, if you have the drive, we have the tractor to take you there.

**What**We are Looking For**:

- A genuine interest in rural life, farming, and agriculture — whether you grew up on a farm or just love the countryside.
- Legal experience working in a support role like conveyancing, commercial property, or real estate. You have used the land registry portal and understand SDLT. You may have post completion experience and be comfortable using case management systems.
- A connection to the countryside, rural life, farming and agriculture. Tell us your story, we want to hear from you.

**What** You will Be Doing**:

- Supporting clients with land transactions, tenancies, renewables, estate planning, and more.
- Helping preserve the future of farming through our bespoke Farm Future service.
- Working on everything from easements to diversification projects, clawback agreements, and unregistered land.

**How to Apply**:
Send us your CV, but do not stop there — we want to know in your cover message:

- Why does rural law excite you?
- What is your connection to the rural community?

Ready to plant the seeds of your legal career in fertile ground?

Join Napthens and help us grow the future of rural law.
