We’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far — and of the progressive culture we’ve created. A central part of our approach is our core values, which guide how we work with each other, and our clients.
Here’s Edinburgh-based partner Sarah Morris explaining why she chose Ledingham Chalmers as a trainee.
The role
You’ll handle a broad range of conveyancing work, including purchases and sales, executry conveyancing, remortgages and transfer of title matters. There’s the chance to manage your own caseload as well as contribute to more complex transactions involving title conditions, boundary issues, and access matters.
You’ll be involved at all stages — from taking initial instructions and negotiating missives to reporting to clients and completing Land Register applications. You’ll liaise with clients and third parties, including estate agents and surveyors, and provide support to senior colleagues when needed.
This is a full time, permanent role. Hybrid working may be available, subject to discussion.
The ideal candidate
We’re looking for a qualified solicitor with demonstrable post-qualification experience in residential conveyancing. Just as important as your PQE is your ability to demonstrate —
A strong interest in residential property law and the motivation to build your technical knowledge
Excellent attention to detail and a practical, commercial approach to problem solving
Clear, confident communication and strong drafting skills
Good time management, with the ability to meet deadlines and manage multiple tasks
A collaborative approach and a willingness to support colleagues at all levels
An interest in developing business development skills through client contact, events or training
Why Ledingham Chalmers?
There are excellent prospects at Ledingham Chalmers for personal development, training, and progression in a supportive environment.
Importantly too, this post comes with an attractive remuneration and holiday package as well as other bonuses, subject to qualifying conditions.
Joining our team is a great opportunity to work alongside experienced and friendly professionals and become a valuable member of a thriving firm. Our growth plans depend on having the right team in place, and your contribution can be instrumental to our success.
