Legal Secretary

We do law differently at Orwins. Less formal, more focused – and right now we are looking for an experienced Property Secretary to join our busy property team in Finchley.

This is a hands-on, varied role at the heart of a top-tier, fast-moving team handling residential conveyancing, commercial property and secured lending. You will be supporting a talented group of fee earners – keeping matters moving, managing post completion, handling Land Registry submissions and making sure clients feel in safe hands throughout.

Providing full secretarial and administrative support to the property team handling a mixture of residential property, commercial property and property finance related tasks, drafting and preparing conveyancing documents, managing Land Registry applications and SDLT submissions via Infotrack, handling post completion formalities, ordering searches and keeping client files accurate and up to date. No two days are the same.

You will have previous experience as a property or legal secretary, a confident knowledge of Land Registry processes and hands-on post completion experience. LEAP experience is a big plus. Above all, you are organised, accurate, and the kind of person who takes real pride in their work.

At Orwins, we invest in our people just as much as our future. Our future is our people. This is a firm where your voice is heard, your contribution is recognised, and your development is taken seriously — not just talked about.

You will get genuine access to our C-Suite, senior partners, leaders and experts from day one, working closely with a team that values expertise, supports each other and takes pride in doing things well. We are growing fast, and the people who join us will grow with us too.
