Apex Resources are working on behalf of our client, a regulated legal services provider, to appoint a qualified solicitor or licensed conveyancer (with a minimum of 3 years PQE) to fulfil the statutory roles of Head of Legal Practice (HoLP) and/or Head of Finance and Administration (HoFA).

This is a non-operational, compliance oversight role that does not involve day-to-day conveyancing work. It is ideally suited to a senior legal professional - perhaps semi-retired or portfolio-based - who can bring experience and authority to regulatory supervision.

Key Responsibilities:

* Review and help maintain regulatory documentation, systems, and internal controls.

* Act as a named officer with the appropriate regulator and ensure ongoing good standing.

Candidate Requirements:

* Qualified solicitor or licensed conveyancer with 3+ years PQE.

* Prior experience acting as HoLP and/or HoFA is essential.

* Strong knowledge of SRA or CLC regulations and compliance frameworks.

* High levels of integrity, independence, and accountability.

* Comfortable in a supervisory, non-executive role without day-to-day case involvement.

Working Arrangement:

* This role is fully remote with minimal time commitment required.

* The role offers flexible compensation, either on a per-client basis or via a set annual sum, depending on the arrangement with the successful candidate.

What's on Offer:

* A low-involvement, high-responsibility position ideal for senior legal professionals.

* Flexible, remote working suited to a semi-retired, portfolio, or consultancy lifestyle.

* Straightforward compliance oversight without operational workload.

Stable remuneration tailored to the nature of the engagement.
