If you’re a post-completion specialist who wants more than “business as usual”, this is a rare opportunity to build something properly. Our client is creating a dedicated Post Completion function within its Real Estate division, and they need someone who can take ownership, set standards, and lead the service forward.

Our client is a national UK law firm with an excellent reputation and client base. They are modern and forward-thinking in their approach to work, with a genuine focus on quality, efficiency, and flexible ways of working.

• Strong understanding of HM Land Registry requirements, registers and property registration

• Knowledge of SDLT and post-completion compliance requirements

• Experience managing high-volume, deadline-driven transactional workloads

• Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to build trusted relationships
