This is an exciting and rewarding role for the right candidate. This is not a technical legal role and it’s not about managing the status quo; it’s about having good business ideas and helping people in the team to progress and develop, so the department can keep moving forwards.

There are interesting challenges ahead such as how do we incorporate AI into how we work and still maintain a high standard of good quality work.

You would fit into in a successful and well-run department with a good management structure consisting of excellent Team Leaders, a dedicated Professional Support & Development Lawyer and a highly efficient administrative coordinator. We also have superb case management and an experienced IT trainer as part of our own in-house IT team.

It’s a department with good staff retention and an emphasis on providing prompt and proactive client service. A good work-life balance is important, and our business model is based around three elements of great service, higher legal fees and manageable file numbers so everyone has an opportunity to do their very best work.

We’re looking for a candidate with good people skills and business acumen. You must have an interest in how to run an efficient and profitable conveyancing department.

You will not be required to run any of your own client files and your focus will be on continuing to ensure that the department is a productive and supportive environment that delivers top notch client service. Salaried partnership and even going onto equity partnership is available for the right Head of department.
