Residential Property Solicitor / Conveyancer

Colchester | Hybrid | Full-time / 4 days considered

Are you an experienced Residential Property fee earner looking for a move where you can focus on what you do best, running a quality caseload and delivering for your clients?

We’re working with a well-established law firm that is looking to strengthen its Residential Property team in Colchester with a more experienced fee earner.

The opportunity

This is a great opportunity for a qualified Residential Property Solicitor, CILEX or Licensed Conveyancer who wants to join a busy and established team.

You’ll take ownership of your own caseload, dealing with a broad range of residential property matters from instruction through to completion, while working alongside an experienced wider team across Colchester, Ipswich and London.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
