Compliance Executive (AML & Onboarding) – Join a Modern, Friendly Law Firm

📍 Location: St Patrick Square (hybrid working options available)
🕒 Job Type: Full-time, Permanent
💼 Department: Cashroom & Compliance (Allocated to Conveyancing Team)
💰 Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience
🎓 Training provided – ideal for candidates with AML, compliance, or onboarding experience

At Warners Solicitors LLP, we believe in doing things differently – combining legal excellence with a down-to-earth, supportive culture. As part of our continued growth, we are looking for a Compliance Executive to work closely with one of our Conveyancing Teams, helping ensure a seamless client experience from day one.

🔍 About the Role

 You’ll be the compliance point-person for a specific conveyancing team, but with the support and supervision of our experienced Cashroom & Compliance Department. Your work will be essential in helping the team meet Anti-Money Laundering (AML) requirements while keeping the onboarding process smooth for clients.

 Key Responsibilities:

• Act as the first point of contact for AML checks on new conveyancing clients.
• Use electronic onboarding software (Amiqus) to collect and verify ID, source of funds, and other required information.
• Liaise directly with clients to obtain further documentation when needed.
• Provide clear and concise AML summaries for fee earners to review.
• Maintain accurate compliance records and flag any concerns.
• Work collaboratively with both the compliance department and the conveyancing team.

✅ What We’re Looking For

You might have a background in legal compliance, onboarding, client care, finance, or administration – or even be a conveyancing assistant looking to move into a more compliance-focused role. While previous AML or onboarding experience is helpful, full training will be provided.

 Essential:

• Excellent attention to detail
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Confident speaking with clients in a professional and friendly manner
• Organised and comfortable working to deadlines
• A team player who can work independently with appropriate support

 Desirable:

• Experience with AML, compliance, onboarding or client due diligence
• Familiarity with Amiqus or similar digital ID platforms

🌟 Why Join Warners?

We’re proud of the balance we’ve built – between traditional professionalism and a genuinely supportive workplace. You’ll enjoy:

• Private Healthcare / Vitality Active Rewards (after one year of service)
• Flexible working options
• Enhanced parental leave
• Annual bonus scheme and salary review
• Pension contribution flexibility (salary sacrifice)
• Regular social events and team ‘fun budget’
• Progression opportunities and investment in your development

Salary: Competitive + bonus + excellent benefits

Are you curious about a career in law or property?
Already a paralegal and looking for a team that genuinely invests in you?

At Warners Solicitors, we’re expanding our respected residential property team and are welcoming interest from all experience levels – whether you're an experienced conveyancing paralegal or someone just beginning your journey with a real interest in law, property, or client care.

🚀 A Career Path That Grows With You

We know the route into law can be unclear if you’re not starting as a trainee solicitor. That’s why we’re proud to offer structured internal development for those joining at an entry level – including:

• Hands-on exposure to estate agency, client support and conveyancing processes
• A clear path to progress into a Trainee Paralegal role and then Paralegal status
• Optional routes into other areas of the firm – property, private client, support
• Development of key transferable skills

🏡 What You’ll Do

You’ll support our experienced lawyers and fee-earners to help clients move home. Your role may evolve to include:

• Managing client communication and document preparation
• Drafting letters and forms
• Assisting with legal research and case progression
• Coordinating with estate agents and other solicitors
• Providing administrative and organisational support to the team

For experienced paralegals, there are opportunities to manage your own files under supervision and contribute at a fee-earning level straight away, with accessible management and support in small team structures and a caseload that is carefully monitored so that it does not become excessive.

💼 Who We’re Looking For 

We welcome applications from:

• Experienced conveyancing paralegals ready for a friendly, values-driven firm
• Career changers or school leavers/graduates looking to enter the legal/property sector
• Ambitious, proactive individuals who thrive in a team setting and enjoy helping clients

Strong communication, organisation, and curiosity will go a long way. Legal experience is helpful but not essential — we’ll train the right person.

🌟 Why Warners?

We are proud of our supportive, collaborative culture and commitment to staff wellbeing. We live our values – integrity, empathy, excellence and balance – every day, and it shows in the benefits we offer:

• Private medical insurance (Vitality – comes with additional perks!) after one year of service
• Annual profit share bonus scheme
• Enhanced parental leave – industry-leading maternity, adoption, and paternity policies
• Flexible working where possible
• Ongoing training and development including CPD and qualifications
• Ongoing investment in technology and working environments
• Regular social and charity events
• A genuine focus on work-life balance and wellbeing and an open dialogue with our colleagues about what’s important to them
• Access to good-quality cases, with a focus on service excellence rather than volumes
