The Leasehold Team is one of a small number of genuinely specialist lease extension teams nationwide, and is possibly the largest, most specialist team of its type. They handle work throughout England and Wales for both freeholders and leaseholders. The team deals with around 350 cases a year and has helped around 10,000 people extend their leases or buy their freehold.
The job involves a caseload of lease extension, enfranchisement and right to manage cases. It does not involve contentious leasehold work – they have 2 specialist property litigators who handle that and work closely with the leasehold team.
The successful candidate will:
- Have a minimum of 3 years experience of lease extension, enfranchisement and right to manage work.
- Be a leasehold extension and enfranchisement specialist with extensive experience.
- Have demonstrable experience of supervision and training of junior staff – this is a key part of this role.
- Have a desire to continue growing their specialist experience and knowledge.
- Have the confidence and the ability to react to change whilst working within a pressurised environment.
- Have excellent standards of client care and great communication skills.
- Have a history of strong billing.
- Have the ability to delegate efficiently.
- Be an enthusiastic team player, with great people skills.
- Have good organisational and excellent IT skills.
Full or part-time: The job is available ideally on a full-time basis, but part-time candidates will also be considered.
Flexible and home working: The job is available either on a remote working basis, or based at one of their 4 branch offices – Salisbury, Andover, Amesbury and Fordingbridge – or on a hybrid basis. Candidates who are able to spend some time in the office will have priority for this particular role, because of a need for some degree of training and supervision of juniors.
Salary: Market rate – dependent on the successful candidate's experience.
