About The Role
Are you an experienced conveyancer ready to take the next step into a more strategic, influential role?
At Simplify, we’re looking for a Conveyancing Technical Lead to help drive our mission to transform residential conveyancing. This is an opportunity to move beyond the day-to-day and play a key role in shaping how conveyancing is delivered at scale.
This role goes far beyond technical support. You’ll lead on process innovation, risk-based decision-making, and quality improvements, while helping to embed emerging technologies such as AI into our ways of working. Alongside this, you’ll mentor and support our Legal Technical Specialists, raising standards and driving excellence across the business.
If you combine deep technical expertise with a commercial mindset and a passion for continuous improvement, we’d love to hear from you.
What You’ll Do
Lead with technical excellence
- Support complex conveyancing cases, ensuring high-quality title checks and informed, risk-based decisions.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
