Residential Property Solicitor | NQ+ | Gloucester

This isn't a volume factory. The firm handles selective, mid-to-high-end residential work, where clients expect detailed advice, not just process. The approach is simple: fewer files, better quality and genuine attention to detail.

The Work

You will handle sales, purchases, remortgages, lease extensions and transfer of equity matters for clients who have chosen the firm for expertise, rather than price.

The caseload is manageable by design. The expectation is that you give each transaction the time it needs, stay ahead of issues and communicate clearly. That is how the firm has built its reputation, and it is non-negotiable.

You will work alongside experienced heads of department and senior conveyancers who have been with the business for the long term. The environment is collaborative, tech-enabled and process-driven, without losing the importance of judgment or strong client relationships.

Why This Makes Sense

The headline here is the bonus scheme and working structure, both of which are unusual in regional conveyancing.
The firm operates a discretionary annual bonus tied to team performance. Last year, every member of staff received a bonus, with NQs taking home between 31% and 36% of their base salary on average, while the highest bonuses reached even higher.

On top of that, the working week is 35 hours, with a hybrid structure of three days in the office and two from home. You will also benefit from a 9-day fortnight, managed via rota to ensure appropriate office coverage.

The overall package is well above market for regional residential property work, while the hours and flexibility make the role genuinely sustainable.

What They're Looking For

You will be a qualified solicitor or legal executive (NQ+) with residential conveyancing experience, comfortable managing your own files and confident communicating directly with clients, agents and lenders.

The firm values people who care about the quality of their work, stay organised under pressure and want to be part of a team that is building something rather than simply maintaining it.

If you want well-paid, high-quality residential property work with genuine flexibility and the opportunity to join a growing practice, this is worth a conversation.
