Process-led. Client-focused. Professionally run.
Edwards Employment Solutions are recruiting an experienced Conveyancing Assistant to join a well-established and highly regarded legal practice in Chesterfield. This role is ideal for someone who already understands residential conveyancing and genuinely enjoys working within defined processes, clear systems and structured workflows.
If you’re someone who takes pride in accuracy, organisation and seeing a matter through from instruction to completion — this is your lane.
The Role – What You’ll Be Responsible For
This is a hands-on, process-driven position supporting residential conveyancing files in a busy but well-managed environment. You’ll be working with a fully developed case management system and clear procedures, allowing you to focus on doing the job properly — not firefighting.
Key responsibilities include:
✔ Supporting the day-to-day progression of residential conveyancing files
✔ Managing routine conveyancing tasks in line with established procedures
✔ Maintaining accurate and up-to-date case records using the firm’s case management system
✔ Liaising confidently with clients, both face-to-face and over the telephone
✔ Handling documentation, correspondence and administrative tasks with precision
✔ Ensuring deadlines are met and matters progress efficiently
✔ Working closely with colleagues within a small, dedicated team
✔ Managing your own workload while knowing when to escalate or seek guidance
This is a role for someone who values structure, consistency and professional standards.
About You – This Role Will Suit You If:
✔ You have practical experience in residential conveyancing (essential)
✔ You’re comfortable working to processes, systems and deadlines
✔ You enjoy a role that combines admin, client contact and procedural work
✔ You take pride in accuracy and organisation
✔ You’re reliable, steady and results-focused
✔ You like knowing what “good” looks like and delivering it consistently
CLC or CILEx qualifications (or working towards them) are advantageous but not essential.
Skills & Attributes We’re Looking For
✔ Solid conveyancing knowledge gained in a professional environment
✔ Strong administration and IT skills (MS Office essential)
✔ Clear, confident communication skills
✔ Ability to work independently and as part of a close-knit team
✔ A calm, methodical approach to workload management
✔ A genuine desire to see tasks completed thoroughly and correctly
Experience with conveyancing case management systems is a definite advantage.
What’s On Offer
✔ Salary commensurate with experience
✔ Online rewards & recognition platform
✔ Employee discount scheme
✔ Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
✔ Pension scheme with employer contributions
✔ Generous annual leave, including your birthday off
✔ Holiday purchase scheme
✔ Genuine work/life balance — no unnecessary late nights
✔ Friendly, professional office environment close to Chesterfield town centre
This is a grown-up role in a grown-up business — structured, supportive and professionally run.
