Job Overview
We’re looking for a Legal Assistant to join the firm. If you’ve worked in property law before, brilliant! If you haven’t, but you’re a fast, confident learner with a good head for detail, also brilliant! The key thing is that you’re organised, proactive, and happy to get stuck in.
You’ll be supporting our residential and commercial property fee‑earners with day‑to‑day conveyancing tasks, helping keep matters moving smoothly, and making sure clients feel looked after throughout their transaction. We’re a friendly, approachable, and professional firm and we want someone who fits that energy.
Duties
- Opening new files and helping manage them from instruction to completion.
- Drafting letters, forms, and simple legal documents.
- Ordering searches and keeping track of results.
- Liaising with clients, estate agents, lenders, and other solicitors.
- Updating clients in a clear and concise way.
- Keeping our case management system neat, tidy, and up to date.
- Supporting fee‑earners with whatever the day throws at us.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Experience in conveyancing or property law (preferred).
- Proven administrative experience, preferably within a legal environment or similar professional setting.

- Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook) or similar programmes.
- Ability to work independently as well as part of a team in a fast-paced environment.
- Attention to detail and high levels of accuracy in all tasks undertaken.
