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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll oversee and support a dedicated pod of three case handlers within a busy residential conveyancing team handling a high volume of transactions each month.
The structure offers flexibility depending on your preferred working style and level of seniority, allowing you to remain hands-on with your own caseload while mentoring and supporting your team.
You’ll have autonomy to manage workflow allocation across the pod, helping to drive performance, efficiency, and service standards while developing junior colleagues and supporting the wider growth of the department.
We are an enthusiastic, supportive team that values each other’s knowledge and opinions.
We pride ourselves on offering an inclusive, motivating environment where career development is encouraged and leadership potential is recognised. This role offers a genuine pathway into Operations Management as the business continues its national expansion.
The Team Lead Conveyancer Opportunity:
We are looking for a high-calibre residential conveyancing professional to take ownership of a key leadership role within our growing Lincoln team.
This is a genuine Team Lead position, responsible for overseeing and supporting a dedicated pod of case handlers within a busy, high-performing residential conveyancing function. You’ll play a central role in driving performance, maintaining service excellence, and supporting the continued growth of the department.
The role will suit either an established Team Leader looking for a strong platform within a modern and expanding law firm, or a highly experienced senior conveyancer with natural leadership capability and the credibility to lead and develop a successful team.
You’ll have autonomy to manage workflow allocation across the pod, oversee performance, and mentor colleagues, while working closely with senior leadership to help shape the future direction of the team.
The structure of the role is intentionally flexible. Some Team Leads remain actively involved in managing their own caseload, while others take a more operational and people-focused approach centred around leadership, support, and delivery oversight.
