Looking for your next opportunity in property law? This could be an excellent move for an experienced Legal Executive who enjoys managing transactions and building lasting client relationships.
My client is a well-established South Island law firm looking to add a capable Legal Executive to its Dunedin team. You’ll support a varied property practice, working across residential conveyancing, rural property and commercial transactions.
You’ll have responsibility for managing files, coordinating settlements and keeping transactions moving, while working closely with experienced lawyers on a range of property matters. There is also scope to get involved in subdivision and development work, as well as more complex ownership and trust arrangements.
If you enjoy a role where you can take ownership of your workload, work directly with clients and continue developing your technical expertise, this is well worth exploring.
