Are you..?

Detail oriented and great with data? Do you thrive on accuracy? Enjoy working with complex information?

If you have experience handling data, and strong communication and collaboration skills, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!

As part of our Conveyancing Sales team—a high-volume, fast-paced environment—the Data Processing Assistant plays a vital role in ensuring efficiency and accuracy of data. Your work will support the wider sales team by providing correct and detailed information, co-ordinating with external providers, and delivering exceptional service to internal stakeholders and clients.

• Conduct due diligence checks on search results, escalating issues or discrepancies promptly.
• Communicate search results clearly and efficiently to internal teams, clients, and other stakeholders.
• Collaborate with providers to resolve delays or discrepancies and ensure timely delivery.
• Maintain accurate records of all search requests, results, and documentation.

Whilst not essential, candidates with previous experience in a similar role within the legal or property sector and/or knowledge of or familiarity with UK conveyancing and property search processes are strongly preferred.

Although we can make no guarantees, we are always keen to retain our best people. As such, although this role is currently only available on a fixed term basis, should you perform well and a suitable permanent opportunity is available at the end of your term either in this department or elsewhere in the business, we would love to discuss this further!
