Are you an experienced Conveyancing Solicitor ready to combine technical excellence, leadership and legal oversight in a role where you can genuinely influence quality, compliance and team success?

We're looking for a talented Supervising Solicitor to join our specialist Mortgagee in Possession (MiP) Conveyancing Team. This is a unique opportunity for a qualified solicitor who thrives on delivering high-quality legal advice while coaching and developing others, improving processes and ensuring the highest standards of compliance and client service.

About the Role

Working closely with operational leadership, you'll act as the team's legal expert helping shape best practice, support legal excellence and drive continuous improvement across a growing and successful department. This is a varied and rewarding position where you'll balance your own caseload with a broader supervisory and quality assurance remit.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide technical leadership and legal oversight across the conveyancing team.
  • Supervise fee earners and case handlers, offering support on complex conveyancing and title matters.
  • Conduct file reviews to ensure compliance with legal, regulatory and client requirements.
  • Identify risks, trends and opportunities for operational improvement.
  • Act as the primary escalation point for complex and high-risk transactions.
  • Deliver coaching, mentoring and technical training to colleagues.
  • Build strong relationships with lenders, clients, asset managers and key stakeholders.
  • Manage your own caseload of Mortgagee in Possession transactions from instruction through to completion.

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.
