Job Description
Knights has always done things differently. In 2012, we were the first organisation of our type in the UK legal sector to attract private equity investment, enabling us to move from the traditional partnership model to a corporate structure, creating a clear separation between management/ownership and fee earners.
The success of our model was reflected in very attractive growth over the following 6 years and since our listing on the AIM market in June 2018, we have reported strong year on year numbers and now turnover £150m up from £8m, 12 years ago.
With nearly 1500 colleagues across 26 locations, our strong organic growth, combined with several high-quality recent acquisitions means we are now a more diversified business with strengthened positions in our key target markets. We have the team and financial resources in place to deliver our organic and acquisitive growth strategy as we scale up and build upon our position as the leading legal and professional services business outside London.
Our business model and culture remain a clear differentiator from many legal services businesses enabling us to recruit individuals who wish to work in a modern professional services business. We are different on purpose.
The role:
We now have a number of fantastic opportunities within our premium Residential Property team based in our ‘A Grade’ Leeds office at The Majestic. We want to grow our offering in this area at pace and are looking to recruit the best Residential Property lawyers in Yorkshire.
We are unique in the UK as the only Top 50 legal services business with a dedicated Residential Property team of this scale. You will be joining a team of over 90 talented Residential Property experts working collaboratively from 22 locations.
Here at Knights, working in Residential Property is different. You will work with lower volumes meaning a more manageable caseload, typically no more than 5 new instructions a week and with a guaranteed pipeline of work. We therefore prioritise quality, speed and clear communication to deliver the highest service to our Residential Property clients, utilising state of the art technology tools to make your job smoother and more efficient.
Key benefits:
* Lower caseloads

* Guaranteed pipeline
* Enjoy a steady flow of high-quality cases, ensuring stability and consistent opportunities to grow your expertise.

* We equip our team with all the technology you need to streamline your work, enhance efficiency, and let you focus on what you do best.
