This is an excellent opportunity for a Conveyancer, Licensed Conveyancer, Conveyancing Fee Earner or experienced Conveyancing Assistant seeking a manageable caseload, genuine work-life balance and the flexibility of mostly remote working, while still having the opportunity to work from the firm's Manchester office when required.

The work will include:
Handling residential property transactions involving repossessed properties.
Dealing with freehold, leasehold and shared ownership transactions.
Managing an effective caseload equivalent to approximately 40–50 files.

Maintaining accurate records and ensuring matters progress in accordance with legal and regulatory requirements.
