Legal Technologist in Swindon

Location: Hybrid, 2 days a week at our Swindon HQ, 3 days from home

Package: Up to £55,000 depending on experience + full benefits package

At tmGroup, we're taking conveyancing into a brighter, smarter, and simpler future with our award-winning technology.

From instant quote tools and seamless onboarding to comprehensive searches and risk management, we use data, technology, and expertise to help our clients move forward with confidence.

We're looking for a Legal Technologist to bring real conveyancing expertise into our product team at an exciting point in its growth. With e-signatures, AI and HM Land Registry's digital services changing the way conveyancing gets done, we need someone who knows the process inside out - and wants to help shape what comes next.

This is a new role, and a great next step for an experienced Conveyancer ready to move into legal tech. You'll be the legal voice in the room - validating what we build, joining client calls and workshops, testing our AI tools from a lawyer's point of view, and spotting where our products can improve and grow. You'll also take on responsibility for compliance across our products and become our main point of contact with HM Land Registry.

You’ll report to our Chief Product Officer, working closely with our Senior Product Owner and the wider product team to turn your conveyancing expertise into practical, real-world solutions. While a technical background is preferred, it is not required – we provide full training in product management and Agile delivery, with scope to grow into owning your own area of the product.

What You’ll Do

• Be the residential conveyancing expert in our product team, making sure features, workflows and content reflect how conveyancing works in practice.
• Help shape product ideas, priorities and strategy, starting with QES and the workflows around it.
• Spot gaps in our existing products and opportunities for growth across client onboarding, searches and due diligence, exchange and completion, and post-completion.

• Spot gaps in our existing products and opportunities for growth across client onboarding, searches and due diligence, exchange and completion, and post-completion.

AI & Quality Assurance

• Test and evaluate our AI products from a lawyer's point of view. You’ll build test cases from real documents, review outputs for legal accuracy and help improve prompts, guidance and safeguards.
• Work with product managers, designers and engineers to write user stories, acceptance criteria and test scenarios (with support to begin with), and test new features before release.

Compliance & Regulation

• Support data protection by design, including DPIAs, AML and ID verification requirements, and responses to customers' legal due diligence questionnaires.
• Keep track of legal, regulatory and market change, such as HM Land Registry practice guides, SDLT, the Money Laundering Regulations, UK GDPR and professional guidance on AI, and explain what it means for our products and customers.

Relationships & Communication

• Become our main point of contact with HM Land Registry and our go-to expert on AP1 applications, and build relationships with The Law Society and HMRC.
• Support our Sales, Marketing and Account Management teams in client meetings, demos and webinars, and help prepare colleagues for client workshops.
• Write clear, plain-English content, such as release notes, help guides and regulatory briefings, and share your knowledge across the business.

About You

• A qualified solicitor, licensed conveyancer or chartered legal executive, or a conveyancing fee earner with equivalent experience.
• Circa three years or more hands‑on residential conveyancing experience, running your own caseload from instruction through to completion and post‑completion, including SDLT returns and HM Land Registry registrations.
• Practical compliance experience in a conveyancing practice: AML, ID and Source of Funds (SoF) checks, client confidentiality and data protection, your regulator's requirements (SRA, CLC or CILEx Regulation), and accreditation schemes such as CQS.
• Working knowledge of UK GDPR as it applies to conveyancing.
• Hands‑on experience with AI tools (such as Copilot, ChatGPT or legal AI products), and a clear sense of their strengths, limitations and risks.
• Articulate and energetic, able to explain legal points to engineers and technology to lawyers.
• Curious and proactive, with a real appetite to learn and grow your career in legal tech.

No product management or software development experience is needed. We'll train you.

Desirable

• Experience of a software rollout, user acceptance testing, or being a super user for a case management system.
• Familiarity with Agile, Jira or Confluence.
• Knowledge of ID verification, AML technology or electronic signatures, including QES.
• Experience engaging with The Law Society, HM Land Registry, HMRC or industry groups such as the Conveyancing Association.
• Leasehold, new build or commercial property experience.

What We Offer

• Salary of up to £55,000 depending on experience
• Hybrid working, with 2 days a week at our Swindon HQ
• Structured training in product management and Agile delivery, with real scope to grow into owning your own product area
• 25 days holiday (increasing with service) and holiday purchase scheme, private health (after qualifying period), pension, life assurance
